thank you :)

i tested a lot of amd 939 chips and max htt wasn't the same for each of them.
I also discovered that the max htt is easier to have with the directly lower multiplier than default multi and max htt decrease with the lower multipliers (4 5 6 or 7)... but frequency can be too high so it needs cold.
Misteroadster discovered few month ago that max htt is related to coldbug (max htt achieved with a certain temperature): max htt decrease of 1.5Mhz for 1°C less so i think your 400HTT is not so high for an amd k8.
So, do you have the time to test if the max htt with cold is same as max htt aircooled?
thx :)
Just to let any M2N-SLI Deluxe owners know new bios 0609 released 08/12/06.
I'm down right now but if anyone upgrades to this bios please let the
forums know how it performs:)
About bloody time!
Well, as a matter of fact, 0609 is dated 12/04/2006, so it seems quite fresh, yay!Quote:

... and this little problem that we've seen on 0503 BETA and 0601 BETA:seems to be fixed!!! :banana: :banana: It looks like someone at ASUS does listen :)Quote:

is the vcore reading in ASUS PC Probe accurate? I set 1.4V in the BIOS, but PC Probe says 1.46V and CPU-Z (latest version) says 1.312V.
IMHO yes.
My ASUS AN8-E v2.0 (nForce 4 chipset) PcProbe shows 1.44-1.45 and multimeter 1.49 :)
interesting, ill have to go buy a multimeter, as i lost mine when i moved.
but im using the M2N-SLI deluxe.
I just got this board and have been mystified by the voltage readings. Most 3rd party programs have a similar reading, while pcprobe is about .2v above those readings. I used a DMM to measure the voltages at the points indicated in the first post by bachus_anonym. In my measurements with a few different voltages, pcprobe read about .15v too high while the 3rd party read about .05v too low.
Another odd thing I have found is that the BIOS seems to automatically overvolt the vcore when the fsb > 250 when vcore is set to auto. It appears to add .1v to the default vcore and disable the ability to go to a lower idle voltage via CNQ.
has anyone tried the newest bios
Version 0702 2006/12/29 update
????
http://support.asus.com/download/dow...N-SLI%20Deluxe
http://dlsvr01.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/...eluxe/0702.zip
I am away from my pc now so I cannot test it.
Any feedback from anyone tried it?
thanks :)
0702 seems to work fine for me. Can't comment on how it compares to the other versions though because I flashed to 0702 right when I started.
@bzo thank you!
I will try it when I get back home
just to let you know....

Version 0801 2007/01/22 update
I try the Ver 0801 but it seem to be same with 0702. I have a question with my computer
I have an 3600+ X2 Socket AM2 Windsor
First I do this
http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=157057
VCore=1.2750V
HT=240 MHz
Multi=10X
Vdimm=df
I try Super PI and pass 32M but when try Orthos option Blem test not pass 15m but test CPU only (Small FFTs) pass >5h.
After that I think Ram false or Vdimm too low I try this
http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=160373
VCore=1.2250V
HT=230 MHz
Multi=10X
Vdimm=df
But I got the same result. Do you know why? I should increase vcore or vdimm to stable.
GO GO GADGET REVIVE!
ok soooooo, i havent used an asus mobo since the a7n8x days fellas.... ive come to terms with the funky voltage and temp reportings... sort of; but i'm looking at another crazy scaling wall yet again!
i'm rocking a brisbane am2 X2, on the m2n 570 sli, and scale really easily up to 2.9 ghz but the moment i try to stabilize 3.0, core #0 always fails on me, from 1.45(BIOS) all the way up to bios max!
so first guess is, gotta loosen up the choke hold on the IMC; lets go look at secondary DRAM timings right.... only, NO WINDOWS PROGRAM CAN SHOW ME WHAT THE TIMINGS ARE!
so, how in the heck did you get systool to show you timings? is tehre no new a64 tweaker? a4info als ocant report right. oh noes. or better yet, what shall i loosed up? i put MAL at 9ns for now.... no clue what the rest of the stuff is being set at with AUTO being used for all secondary and tertiary things in the DRAM section.
holla back!
has anyone else besides bachus_anonym been able to get beyond a 300 HTT on this mb? I seem to be hitting a wall here. I'm pretty sure it's not the CPU, as I'm able to get this opty 1210 running 300x9 as low as 1.15v. And I've memtested the ram to 933 (runs at 800 at a 300 HTT with current divider). Any help would be appreciated!
has anyone tried new 0903 BIOS ?
what this numbers mean?
I've been using the 0903 BIOS for over a week now. Seems pretty good.

Gonna try lowering the cpu multi and see how far towards max HTT I can get. At 320 HTT with 667 divider, my RAM craps out going over 1000MHz, so I had to go with 533 divider. I would like to get the RAM close to 1000MHz 5-5-5-15, which it runs well, but too much more and it gives up and extra voltage won't help these Promos.
spqqky can you make some bios shots for me if it's not too much hastle :)
what cooling you have?
What specifically are you looking for?Quote:

does this board support 1T ?
Well, our RAM differs greatly. Most everything is set to auto except cas, trcd, trp and tras. Timings are at 2T and I tried max async of 8ns and 9ns.
You will need to play with yours a bit as the D9's on your sticks will act much differently than the Promos IC's on my Corsair.
I'm still researching which settings I can mess with to achieve better memory clocks without killing performance too much.
I got my Opty from a forum member at DIY-Street.
i have stock cooler, which one you suggest me?
Scythe INFINITY SCINF-1000 or Scythe NINJA SCNJ-1100 PLUS rev. B ?

Looks like my board is the bottleneck. Dropping the multi down didn't help me in my quest for higher HTT, it simply craps out at around 320 HTT. I was able to keep my RAM stable, however, running the 667 divider this time, giving my DDR800 a nice ride to DDR1050.
Overall, this is a really good board from Asus, just seems the 570 chipset it truly the limiting factor.
well i did hit max with stock cooler i guess...
315x9.5 hits around 65°c at S&M at 1.4v in bios, keeps rebooting after few minutes, haven't tried higher voltage......ideas?
that system did pretty good for as small a budget system as it is single core and eveything!
people with this mobo
HOW CAN I see all correct voltages, speed of fans and temperatures?
smartguardian aint working
probe2 sux
speedfan partially
what's next option?
why doesnt AI SUITE work with this mobo????
Did you download the latest version of PC Probe? After I updated my BIOS, the one off the disk locked up. I uninstalled it and then installed the latest on Asus' web site and it works fine now.
yes i have pc probe2 1.04.05
do you guys have problems with soundcard?
sometimes on 5.1 speakers i don't get sound to center/subwoofer and have no idea why :(
With old Audigy Gamer, I've had no problems with sound. What card are you using?
integrated one :)
anyone got this mobo work on PC2 667 divider?????
HT SPEED 300
X9
VDIMM 1.9V
and it keeps giving me NTLDxxx...error on boot. too low VDIMM ?
wuts ur timing?
5-5-5-15 should b ok wif dat vdimm..
:woot: Well heres my lil 3200+Orleans @2.8ghz no IHS and lapped heatsink on AIR .. took me about 10 minutes of tweaking . One day when i get board ill go for over 3ghz with my thermalright 120 Extream:up: By the way that is the ACTUAL Vcore im running :D No IHS on these FnRoCk!!!!!!!!!!
Thanx for making me get off my but and tweak my lil 3200+ thats been collecting dust:hammer: ill work on this more later im so busy tweaking my 6000+with a lil water:yepp:

Is that Orthos stable, also whats your Vcore in the BIOS? Mine CAAPG 0725 SPMW 4000+ Brisbane hits a wall around 2.9 GHz stable with Vcore 1.4v (BIOS around 1.300v), box HSF. Also show us some SPi times (1M). Bios 1102 gave me much lower ram bandwidth and also a higher SPi time, than 0903.
pet168
what is your chipset cooling and ambient temp ?
n00b question: does it support crossfire? ;)
yo pet168..mind tellin me wuts ur ram bios setting with volt..
n ur cpu voltages also..thanx ;)
