Thx for the tip man, will try it.:up:
What are the differences in stability you have noticed with 3/17 and 65 nm CPU's? I thought that most of the updates since 12/24 were for 45 nm CPU's. Also will my BIOS profiles still be usable if I update? 12/24 seems fine to me and I'm not going to change unless there are some clear reasons.
Has anyone tried that new stuff, Auto Boost System?

Seems i can't figure out how to make a bank profile...:confused:
Anybody here with a QX9650? what VTT's are usually required above 4ghz and 400fsb. thanks.
With the exception of the F1 key the software works on all the P35, X38, X48 and P45 boards.
I flashed to the 3/17? bios, and now everytime i turn the system on, the motherboard speaker kind of chirps at me...more like a growl. it's really freaking weird, but why the hell does this happen?

Is it really true that this particular QX9650 (ES) is a voltage hog?
Not a beta, some guy got it with a LanParty Dark P45 T2RS and uploaded it, so i wandered if anyone has tried it already.

I would really appreaciate if you could post one of the reference bios settings that you did before, that is for a bios that uses fsb in excess of 525. I know you ried it...like many of us
I have the same motherboard, may bios and use april batch 8400 cpu. Most imorportant to me are gtl, bios and ,mem valuse. Thanks for any advice.:)
e8400
p35 t2r
4gb gskill 8500
This is the only thing I could find with settings listed. But it's not an E8400 CPU.

@praz
what is a good starting point for GTL settings for 45nm quads?
Praz- your input would be greatly apperciated to the question above this post :up:
Check this out first:
Quad Core OC Database.
:up:
no info on GTL's for the 45nm parts. huhuhu
i just downclocked my 8400 from 4.2g to 4g, because the hot summer weather.
with less volts to vcore, vnb, i can get it stable for prime95 5 hours or so. also occt ram, cpu and mix are all stable.
but once i play world of warcraft, it randomly crashes between 1-2 hours... real temp shows both core are at 40c when running the game...so i guess its not an overheat issues...
anyone have any suggestions?
Haven’t had the privilege to own a 45nm quad yet but the 45nm dual core's like 60 ish with maybe 5 clicks either way.
I've also found my board likes/needs the NB GTL to be adjusted independently of the CPU GTL's as I raise NB voltage to stop lockups etc. I first noticed this strange NB GTL behaviour when shooting for high FSB because the board would not boot over about 1.6v NB.
For example my rig will run my E8500 @ 4GHz 1.25v vcore 1.45v NB with no GTL tuning, 4.2GHz I need 1.28V vcore 1.53v NB 60,60,60 & 4.3GHz 1.34v vcore 1.57v NB 60,60,69.
Something like this VID Control 1.25V and VTT voltage around 1.6V (1.59x) then this can be used as a starting point
CPU GTL 1/2 Volt: 115
CPU GTL 0/3 Volt: 114
North Bridge GTL Volt: 115
Jupiler got it.:up:...Also, there is some data about this on techpowerup forums.
Check it out if you don't believe me :) :

I believe it will work, I just remember this article.
It does, and with Quads, even quicker than dual cores.
With all due respect mad-skills, because i know they arn't your settings. That list of bios settings is just about the most thoughtless list i have seen. Anyone that has been around 45nm's for any length of time knows that just throwing voltage at it does not work. I will lay odds on, that clock was never stable, and the chip is now useless if it was run for any length of time anyway.
^^^^^^ About sums that up.
