What is the safest voltage for NB on a stock cooling?
Currently i have my rig at 3.8Ghz, both Vtt and Mch are on 1.3
i've tried to get it up past 4Ghz but no luck at all :(

OMFG!!!!!!! I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got a new case...Antec1200...and now I got dual channel back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And 8gb to boot!!!!!!!
Congrats!! Your single channel nightmare is over, now you can really enjoy your rig.
Have found some places selling the : GA Ep45 UD3LR here in uk wich seem to go quick,so my question is will they be a good overclockers as the GA Ep45 UD3 to go with my Q9550 ,thanks.
I existed on Single Channel for a year when half my Dominator set made the choice not to boot anymore - but it's enough for Crysis and Vista ;)

woot woot
I think it will perform equally as well. Mine is an ep45T but i have a dual core in it. Never had any probs apart from needing to put a small fan aimed at northbridge as it was hotter than the sun at 1.3 Vmch. I saw them listed too on a few sites, they disapper v fast.Quote:

they sure are going fast ,thanks for your reply Songok.
GA-EP45-UD3P Rev 1.0/1.1 beta bios F10k:

thats great news.but didnt you ever set it up outside of the case for troubleshooting during this whole single channel nightmare?Quote:

here's proof that the EP45-UD3L - the cheapest of the Ultra Durable 3 series can hold it's own at 500fsb - don't get me wrong I wouldn't leave it at this vtt - but i figure it's pretty decent for a $100 motherboard...Even beats most of Asus's line up (with Quads) AND my $200 T2RSB Plus...:eek::eek:
beautiful:clap::clap::clap:
they definitely got something here
I may just buy another one for a rainy day

anyone have feedback on the f10k bios? :)
some corrections to some network driver on fast boot that never was my problem and they say that has some bugs with showing CPU multiQuote:

thanks sergio -- i guess i'll just hang w/ f10j for now since it's been running fine. :)
Yes I did and it still did it. It is just weird I tell you.Quote:

:shocked: what cooling do you have on the northbridge? because im on stock cooling with case fans and im still getting lockups in the high 460s fsb wise. also what performance level are you at? i see your using 1:1 memory divider while im on 5:6 performance level 8 atm. im already on the 8 multiplier to push my cpu and thats with stock cpu cooling lol. i can see myself using the 10 or possibly even the 11 multi if i push for 5ghz if i ever get around to using dry ice. big question mark over whether this board with only 4 phases will handle a quad pushed that hard, probably not.Quote:

Q6600 at 4.14GHz is already very impressive, I'd reckon you are seeing the limit of the chip.
Anyway it's taken me a long time to get used to this board coming from Asus (around 1 month), and at first I really hated it...but now I've got to say I really love it. I am running the below as my 24/7 clock, it's not prime stable but is stable enough that I can run it 24/7 with no crashes doing everything from gaming to encoding and CFD simulation.

Not prime stable for 24/7 use! How can you sleep at night!!:eek:Quote:

I think what songok was getting at is the scope for encoding errors. If unstable by even the slightest amount, the resulting encode stands a good chance of glitchy pixels in frames etc, particularly as encoding doesn't really verify it's output. I guess if your not an audio/video-phile like me then you've got nowt to worry about, but I am!
Anyway, I've been busy with this board over the weekend - done a load of benching with my quad to get me several 2nd through to 5th places in the HWbot rankings. The only thing I've left out is PCmark, but for my first bunch of submissions I don't think I did too bad at all! If I had phase/nitrous/EP45T I bet I would do a load better!
Like I said a while ago - biting at your heels you top dogs! :up:

I have mine Prime95 stable and I'm running @ 4.2GHz and I love this freaking motherboard. Best I have owned by far. I came from Asus as well here.
