Ket can u Mod a P5E3 Deluxe Bios so it will have a different VCore but Auto as default setting ?
You can flash a P5E3 Deluxe with a P5E3 Premium.
They only catch is that the CPU got to work with 1,00 VCore @ default clock rate.
So it would be VERY helpful to have a P5E3 Premium modded to lets say 1,35 VCore as default and not Auto/VID Setting.

What is Grub? Sorry for my ignorance, I honestly don't know. Safe mode does the same thing..Quote:

Anyway after modding 703 for the P5Q Pro pow just like that my system is seemingly stable as a rock with 1200+ memory frequencies. I put trfc to 42 and a perf level of 8, all good so far :toast: once my system has finished running OCCT v2a I will upload these early rev. modded BIOS files. For me the difference is staggering. I think we should all jump on the back of the Asus bandwagon and keep harassing them until they remove that FSB enhancement option. Asus haven't even added that FSB enhancement option to the Maximus 2 Formula even in the M2Fs latest BIOS rev. (1307) so why the hell put that POS FSB enhancement option on the P5Q series? Surely Asus have got the message by now its problematic for everyone.
are you running a wolfie yet?Quote:

Yeah. I want a P5E3 Premium Bios where the Default VCore ist set to 1,35.
So i can do a cross flash of a P5E3 Deluxe to a P5E3 Premium and start it without having a first class OC CPU. (Which runs default clock rate at 0,99 VCore to be exact)
Think their would be a bunch of guys happy having it - including me.
The most recent P5E3 Premium Bios canbe found here:

If you could take a look that would be great. :up:
Edit: Maybe it would be good idea to even chose 1,45 VCore at default since the cross flash seems to change the VCore range.
Not yet. Penciled in but I have other things that keep coming up. If a few people want to buy some of the stuff in my sig tho then that will move the wolfie purchase forward :DQuote:

I don't know if you work somwhere, but i know the right job that will catch you : Bios progamator :yepp:. I mean it, even in this forum i don't saw another man who can "work" bioses than you:up:
Ket:
Could you please give me a little help with some initial overclock settings for an ASUS P5Q Pro (your 1306 mBios) and a E8400 cpu.
i need a base to start at.
Thanks for any help, AlAll
Agreed in whole.. Did you see my videos this time? Lol I made it to easy for you to say no.. :yepp:Quote:

I had to start the mobo with a 6550 (which was capable of boot with very low voltage) and then set a higher voltage and then switch to a 8600 cpu.
After all this mess, I decided to mod it
xdan: I can only work on the BIOS when I have free time.
I will uploading some modded early rev. BIOSes for people to try. Incredibly my modded 703 gives me by far the best results. My system is stable with memory frequencies beyond 1233MHz. Whereas with any other BIOS, that damn FSB enhancement option cripples everything.
Truehighroller; Not yet :p: Working on BIOS code isn't the only thing I'm doing, I'm also working on a megamod for STALKER :yepp: If anyone is curious you can get info, screenshots, videos etc from HERE :up:
alall: I'll post the settings I use when I've finished tweaking them.
That's really interesting, I wonder why Asus would do that? Can't wait to try this out on the Deluxe, my Redline 2GB modules hates to clock past 1030 or so.
I had almost the exact same memory frequency limit - I was stuck at 1040MHz or so. The system would POST with much higher frequencies, but not be stable in Windoze.
P5Q Series mBIOS pack download
People are asking this question a lot in various threads so hopefully making a new post will help people see it easier. The purpose in CPU Margin Enhancement is to help provide better FSB clocking with cheaper C2Ds.. that is, according to intel. In practicality this option only seems to play absolute havock with peoples systems. If you are experiencing odd system instability, not able to get FSB clocks as high as you could, or having strangely low DRAM frequency barriers I strongly advise you try one of these P5Q Series mBIOSes. The pack contains modded BIOS files for all P5Q series boards using code before asus added CPU Margin Enhancement.
I understand where you're coming from, stupid decision to add that, even more stupid not to remove it... but would ppl be missing out on something useful when going that back with such "old" BIOSes? I ask, cause if someone knows what exactly they added, improved, etc in their later releases, it would be you. :)
I'm aslo guessing that the CPU Margin Enhancement isn't something you can just turno off huh lol.
All the BIOS releases asus have done mostly just work on memory compatibility and CPU support.. but as the BIOSes in that mBIOS pack all use the memory table from the P5Q Premium 1401 BIOS and my custom P6 CPU table that adds even more CPU support - your not going to be missing much if anything :up:
*dowloads 704m and takes out USB drive*
You mean 704? Let us know how you get on.
Figured what the heck, I've tried almost everything else. :)
Guys Asus sell different levels of motherboard at different prices. They will limit the OC on lower levels to push enthusiasts to buy the better boards, simple strategic play and i bet all the motherboard manufacturers do it. what pisses me off is the lower boards can be real bad with ram but end users never see that.Quote:

Since I have now seen that I can turn my vfsb up higher I might give your 0704 a run and try to crank my shiznit up some more for benchies if you think it might be better then the 0803 you modded for me.
even with last modded 0703 for P5Q non pro bios
I cant get ram to run lower than 800
even without CPU Margin Enhancement
