For me, the best bios so far is the 965pt 103.
I think I might have finally figured it out!
Each time I loaded a new BIOS, I would go through and make the changes I wanted. One thing I would normally do would be set the max temp cutout to 65 deg. celcius in the power options. For whatever reason this makes things screwy.
Im sittin here now at 3Ghz and 500Mhz memory and its stable, memtest found 1 error. Got 16.xx in superPI 1M
Still only at 27 deg celc. normal load air cooled :D
EDIT: Did some more OC'ing or trying to... Doesn't seem to want to go to 350 or 366 well, and it completely failed 400Mhz FSB. That sucks. It seems to be really buggy with the 667 divider.. makes it hard to get good clock AND memory rates
What are you guys doing for NB voltage? I'm afraid of the huge jump to 1.47v on "1.35" and what is FSB termination or whatever?
Memory divider problem. Only 533 divider is possible For FSB 400+.
FSB voltage doesn't have temperature issue.
Garn, isn't that MCH voltage?
yea sorry meant NB (MCH)Quote:

Yea whenever I tried FSB 400+ I had memory set to 533 (1:1) still no go, bah oh well, ALOT better than it was.
What cooler are you using and whats your ambient?Quote:

At the Memset 3.0,
0921rh bios set tRFC to 28.
but, 0103 bios set tRfc to 42.
& some SubTimings are slightly different.
I have 1g x 2 d9 ram, and 0914rh, 0921rh are the best. (up to fsb 500)
0103rh is not good for my memory. FSB 449~450 at best.
Apparently, 0103 bios targets value-grade memories because trfc is 42. But, probably this timing is not good for d9.
Finally, 965pt is not flexible to various memories.
The Biostar engineers need to work harder to solve this problem! :mad:
I am using Biostar's official 103bs bios now, just because i can change the multiplier if i want to.
Right now I am running 367x9 (3.3Ghz) and memory at 550Mhz(5-5-5-15)
I notice it takes a ton of vcore to get stable, I am running 1.424v!!
At mid 40 deg cel. full load
SuperPI 1M of 15.266 seconds!! Not bad from the stock 21.xx and a minor (and what should have been a 5 minute OC)
Does winflash work when flashing to the official 103 with this board?
Hi guys
Im thinking on getting this board(Biostar TForce 965PT version) which 2gb ram kit on this page would be the best for ocing this board with a 6300.less than 230 euro would be best and I heard the max voltage on this boad is 2.2 is there any of the kits on that page that can oce well with only 2.2 volts I dont want to do any voltmods.

I am using bio 103 by RebelHaven. I can go up to 485 x 8 but I am using windows Vista Ultimate 64bit so it can not display correct. Suicide overclocking CPU vcore 1.68, Memory Voltage 2.1, MCH 1.55 and other max on air cooling Zalman 9500, no mod or anything.

Here's the best stuff I've managed to achieve with the P965 Deluxe board.

103rh bios wasn't as good as 914rh for my board. In fact, it didn't allow to boot over 500FSB*9 while the board can do it up to 570FSB*9 with 914rh. Yea, you read it correctly, 570FSB*9!!! :eek: It loaded windows up to 560FSB*9.
I tried booting @600FSB*9 and the system posted, reporting 5.4GHz on post screen but was @3XXFSB*9 under windows. It looks like the board tries to find another strap for booting that high.
Very nice board! BTW it's cold-bugged < -90C:
- changing Vcore doesn't work very well @ about -90C
- strap 1333 isn't available anymore @ about -130C (may be @-100C too because this issue sometimes happened @-90C)
Xtremely Exciting Result !! :o
Mr. Before, Didn't you have any trouble(ex. cold booting->system halt) ?
I have trouble with system halt after setting fsb 500+.(E6300 + 1g x 2 d9 rams)
I installed watercoolings to my cpu, northbridge & pwm + vdimm mod(2.4v setting).
But still sometimes boots easily, sometimes system halt.
Do you have any know-hows overclocking 500+ with this board?
p.s. The Significant difference between your system & mine is that you're using 512x2 rams, but mine is 1g x 2.
Does this affect the fsb 500+ overclockability?
very nice before and this is on a c1 rev too!:slobber: . great job:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
Which of these ram would be better for this board
geil GX22GB6400UDC or G.Skill F2-6400CL4D-2GBPK?
And does this mobo have quad core support?
I am using an EverCool Copperman HSF, ambient temp is about 70-74F deg, like most houses I would suppose.Quote:

Got my new setup (minus ram) up and running. using some 1x512mb generic ddr2 4200 until my 2x1gb firestix come tomorrow. Currently priming @ 429x7 @ 1.25v with no problems, but I have a feeling I'm severely limited by the ram until tomorrow. I'm using the 533 divider, but I wish there were actual divider choices :| and I'm also confused...cpu-z says I'm running @ 429mhz, and it's pc4200, so this ram is overclocked from 266mhz to 429? haha that's pretty funny :P
anyway yeah, REAL results tomorrow. Anyone with a decent overclock with a 6300, care to share all your settings?
ok so my buffalo came today, it's all fine and dandy overall (can't seem to get 4-4-4-12 to work at all, but I'm running 472mhz @ 5-5-5-12 on 2v atm), but my chip doesn't seem to like to boot @ 480fsb...it'll boot fine at 479, but 480 is no go. Is this a common thing or what?
Also, sorry about double post, but this needed a bump :)
edit : also, I'm using 103rh bios, should I give 914rh a go?
Which of the three following boards would you guys recommend on grounds of highest FSB, compatibility with D9 & features - P965, 965PT or P965 Deluxe?
i had the same problem with the e6300 i tested on my board. it would boot fine up to 475 to like 479 then once i tried 480 it would crash and i tried everything and no go. i cant use the 1.55 nb volt option in bios it will not boot so i need a nb volt mod so i can boot higher fsb. i was using the 914rh bios to and it wouldnt boot over 480 but now i have the swiftech nb cooler on it so it might go higher never checked. if anybody knows of a nb volt mod plz let me know. thanksQuote:

hi i have biostar 965pt
with Zalman 9500
I want to install THERMALTAKE EXTREME SPIRIT II for the northbridge but not sure if it fits cause zalman 9500 is big
any photos of someone who has the same installation or someone who has tried it?
I've hit a total wall at around 510mhz. My ram is good to ddr1100 on a divider, so that does not seem to be the limiting factor. My e6300 still has tons of headroom as well, it runs 500x7 @ less than 1.4v.
Seems the board is holding me back.

510mhz is very nice. Are you using any special cooling for the NB or just stock?
Thanks
I'm using a Zalman cooler on the NB and the stock NB sink on the SB.Quote:
