When I set over 1.6V on NB I get some bios checksum error and the mb is trying to recover bios.... However when I simply restart pc it's just an overclock fail and need to reconfigure...
Anyone of you had such issues?

that only happens to me when my overclock is really REALLY unstable... like trying to post at 4.5ghz...Quote:

im using 0308 as it provides the best bandwidth, and my q6600 is rock solid @ 4ghz.Quote:

your pic isnt showing so i have no idea what you are talking about.
disables the CLEAR CMOS switch on back panel.
Internal CMOS clear. There is also the button on the back of the board near the USB.Quote:

um, no kup, read teh screen print of pcb...or manual...
cadaveca is right. it disables cmos clear button on the back.
I don't know what's wrong with my board, i reach to FSB of 395 easy, pass all the test OCCT+PRIME95, but when i go up to 400, no mater how much voltage our options in the bios i change, the board don't pass prime test - "SAMLL FFTs".
my config are:

any ideas :shrug: ?
Me neither, I am on the origional early release Tracers of 2x 1gb PC2-8500 and moved through 3 ASUS and 1 Gigabyte, of wich 2 are X38 and 1 P35 based P5K Deluxe. If anything, it was currupted BETA v0907 that killed my 1st Maximus. Even an extra set of same in an older server P5WDG2-WS Pro (I955X). So is there a pcb rev to look for if for those of us who like them want another set? Mine are exposed cause of external cooling, so very easy to look later if need be. Just let me nkow what to look for.Quote:

It helps level out the FSB to NB strap curves as FSB rises, so maybe you atre getting a black hole inbetween. Not really sure. Also, if those are actual working voltages, some are quiate high for such little FSB, especially the PLL and FSBT. NB shouldnt need more then 1.42v, and PLL of minamal of 1.612v (or compare what auto returns, and use the lesser), and FSBT to no more then 1.488v for the 400x9. Also try, manually set GTL_Refs to their max of each 67x/63x.Quote:

Now on this board (RF 0401 BIOS) I can't do 445x9 with even 1.30 volts under load :( All my other settings are on AUTO. I've swapped out my Ballistix 8500 for some Kingston KHX9600, but still no difference. Does anyone have any ideas on what else I can try. I haven't tried higher then 1.30 volts because of my other board can run it @ 1.27, I should at least be able to do 1.30 on this one. I know all hardware overclocks differently, but .03 is a pretty big difference.
I have this problem also but I assumed it was my ram and have another set on the way (Team Extreem 1066 tested to 1200), yours should be fine I would assume so I would be interested to know what your fix is for this problem.Quote:

Going to try to install the Swiftech220 rad on top tonight, just made a cutout template today, we shall see how it goes.
the settings are stable... woke up and it was still priming w/ no errors... thats about 10 hours or so. unfortunately im at work right now so i wont be able to post the settings till i get home. expect a pm :)Quote:

So far so good with the 0308 Rampage bios.
I think I've finally found 2GB modules that will do more than 1100 MHz! Corsair Dominators FTW. 4GB passes 10 hours of Memtest at 1122 MHz 5-5-5-12 PL6 and tonight I'm testing 8GB at that speed. This is on the 400 strap and CPU is at 421x9.5 for 4GHz.
Has anyone seen any differences with the new 0401 Rampage bios?
updated to 401 from 219.. all good

Finally went with your advice and Watercooled my GPU's on a separate loop, check pic links on my signature.Quote:
