well don't know what to say.... i'll start to play with this "new" value .....
Can anyone tell me what the best firmware and drivers for the Marvell 9128 SATA III controller is at the moment? I'm going to be installing and running some benchmarks on a Corsair Force 3 120GB and want to make sure I set it up right.
http://www.station-drivers.com/page/marvell.htm
I looked at Station-Drivers and it appears the latest driver version is 1.2.0.1003 WHQL but I'm not sure which one of the firmwares to use.
Slightly faster performance from the MSACHI miniport driver, than Marvells. I use this.Quote:

it's good or not to update the bios?
how we know what version RST is with the bios?
how to update?
thanks ;)
So you say you see better performance just letting Windows install the default AHCI driver than the driver from Marvell? When I run benches I'll try and test both so that I can get an idea what the performance difference is between them.Quote:

Has anyone who has installed BIOS 0003 noticed that at idle their CPU temp is 10 to 12 degrees C higher than what it was?
I went from 901 to 0003 on Saturday and just noticed this.
At idle with 901 my CPU temp was around 35 - 36. After I changed to 0003 it is now 46 - 47. BIOS, Speedfan and Aida64 all show this 10 - 12 degree increase.
All my core temps at idle are still what they were with 901 (37 - 42). Under load with OCCT CPU Auto test my CPU temp seems normal (61 - 63), my highest core temp at this load is 77 and that is normal.
Just wondering if anyone who has changed to 0003 has noticed the same increase in CPU temp at idle
Just doing some cleaning:cool:

I've washed a vid card and the PCB of a phone before, came out ok both times. Also did heat dry them, dont want that staying wet too long.
Hahahaha who care is it destiled or not ?!?! Both are bad for mobo. I prefer the use of Isopropanol (Isopropyl alcohol) and brush, it even remove the awesome Taiwan smell of a new mobo :)Quote:

On another note, it has been confirmed by Raja that QPI PLL is linked to vIOH, not CPU PLL as ASUS Support previously told us. Check the ASUS official bios thread for a post by spoolsidm.
Is there a problem with running my QPI Link Data Rate at 7244?
Right now I am running at 5919 on the 18 multiplier and I want to jump the multiplier to 22 (7244) to see if I am still stable and to see if it will improve performance any.
The Icrontic Nehalem calculator gives a warning message about instability above 7000. This warning is for the 975, but I figured that it may also apply to the 980X.
I run my QPI link around 7.2ghz with no problems at all. I have stability issues around 7.4ghz.
Should be fine, I run up to as high as the board will allow (~8000)
Thanks Zonso and CryptiK, once I decide on what new BIOS I am going to stick with I am going to give 72XX a try.
Did put with 096 Bios 1 & 0003 for Bios 2Quote:
