thanks so much!
Got the UD3R board, I am pretty new with it, but I have reached Q9550 @ 4300 Mhz that is Intel Burn Test ok. My question is what are safe voltages for 45nm Quads with these P45 boards? Do they overvolt or do other bad things with voltages? I have not checked with dimm anything jet.
So what is max for vCore, FSB voltage, also reference voltage, PLL, MCH. I have Q9550 with watercooling, under heavy load Intel burn test 66/66/65/65 max temps.
Can not compare this board with P35 Asus P5K-E, this one loves 500+ FSB with Quad :up: :clap:
With LLC enabled, voltage with a dmm is pretty close to what is set in bios for cpu. Cpu=z tends to read a little lower than the DMM usually.
For ddr I seem to get 2.1 when I set it at 2.06. So it is overvolted a bit.
And safe voltages.... I say 1.4v is as high as I am okay with volting the cpu under regular use. A few runs of spi or 3dm06 should be fine higher.
remember,these boards keep the cpu voltage the same under idle and load, so don't overdo it.
Congrats mate thats an awesome speed of RAM , you scared of 1,5 lol...see what i posted to ya on the Q9650 1,66+ lolQuote:

Also I tried FSB reference up to 1.04v with no luck, that was when I reduced FSB voltage to 1.46v, I am aiming for 518 x 8.5, that gives me 4400 Mhz for 24/7, have not tested with 8.5 jet, just 8x, was OK with 4300 Mhz, for tests I use 25 loops of Intel Burn Test. I have also tested skew and it did bad if more than 0 is added for CPU, also 700mv for CPU is the best, 800 is also ok, but 900 or 1000mv is freezing.
Also, this is the same chip Q9550 L845B with 1.275v VID (looked badly first), that was on Asus P5K-E P35, no more than 450 FSB, even 455 had freezing problems, and Gigabyte UD3R board is great. Lets hope in can handle 8 Gb of DDR2 good too, P5K-E did it great, 8gigs at ~ 1100 5-5-5-15. :p:
Does any body here own GTA IV? If so do you get a stuttering with the game? I know it seems off subject but trust me it's not.
If i want to run SATA ports in AHCI mode i must enable both "Sata RAID/AHCI Mode" => AHCI Mode and "Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl Mode" or just "Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl Mode" => AHCI mode ? 2 HDD's, no RAID function.
I usually just select both but it seems to really only require the first one being set to ahci.
Is sleep function fixed in bios 10 beta series for ep45-ud3p ver 1.0?
Thank you sergio ! It wasn't anywhere near stable though, just a screeny.
i.e. your post in the q9650 thread, thanks for that as well :) ... i won't be scared to put 1.5v+ for MCH and VTT, as long as it is for short term benching...
I believe the first one is for hard drives only, ACHI is faster than the default. But be warned, for XP you will need to install the ACHI drivers during install...Quote:

I have a bit of a problem that i need some help with.
Basically, i can boot 500x8 and run blend for a while (with 1.28vtt, 1.30mch), not tested for thorough stabilty yet, but it runs for a good half an hour or so before i stopped. But, i went back down and tried to make my way up from 485x8, and it seems i can't get it to even run more than 3 tests of blend :confused: I tried setting the exact same settings as 500x8 and it still doesn't pass 3 tests, i try more voltage and it makes it worse, i tried less and no difference. I messed with the amps, and skews and still can't pass more than 3 tests... :shrug:
I then gave up and tried going for 495x8.5 for a 24/7 clock (4.2ghz... 4.2 is 99% stable at 467x9 at the given vcore), but yet again, it doesn't pass more than 3 tests. I tried 500x8.5 with the same settings and it went on for 20mins :confused: but i blue screened, it doesn't make sense.
I can get 480x8 stable and 500x8 sort of stable, but 485 to 495fsb seems impossible to get stable...
Any thoughts?
wellcome mate, you have to keep testing :up:Quote:

Anything over that 455 x 8 is a no post. But as it is now is LINX 20 pass stable. CPU voltage can be much lower @ these settings will go with VID. Which is 1.250.
Memory is well capable of 1200 at 2.2V.
CPU can go 4.5 Ghz on MFII.
I tried all sorts of trial and error tests, read the forum etc. but i am stuck!
So what do you think? Could someone who knows his way with 2-cores give me some input? Thank you!
Read this thread,maybe will help you:

Gaul,thanks.looks like youve got a nice one too.
which board is that on?the UD3P?
Thanks for posting this. I copied and got to the same 4GHz easily. I lowered the vCore a little (1.39) and left the thermal monitors and C1 stuff enabled.Quote:

Those figures look ok but I would suggest dropping PL to 9 or 10 and PLL to 1.50 since these boards overvolt pll.Quote:

I'm also curious to know why CPU-Z reports Core Voltage at an almost constant 1.424v when I had it set to 1.39 (and just lowered it to 1.38, still no change)
Anything else I could lower?
Here are my settings on my board with a q6600 and a single stage, anything i should change or anything too high on volts? this is just my first play with overclocking on this board, hopefully i can get to 4.4 or 4.5ghz. What should i set me memory to? These new settings on this board confuse me a little.
