Might give it a try as its only at 1.45 now and nothing seems to be getting hot yet, NB heatsink or Power mosfets. Mind you its only at 415 x 10 so I would have thought it was an issue.

Question on my mem......I have 2 gig of corsair xms2 ddr2 800 Rated for 1.9v
Ive bumped it up to 2.050v to help clear up the "Blank Monitor" Problems BUT every now and then "Blank Monitor" will happen again :mad: Should I bump it higher like say 2.1v? My current setting shows my volts are in the Red.Should I be concerned or is it safe?:shrug:

but my problem is next: i cant get it stable even @ 3200 mhz, orthos just keep erroring in 5 minuts. im usin ddr667 Adata Elpida IC-s , P5B Deluxe, zalman 9500, 600w seasonic

i have tryd all, higher cpu vcore etc, nothing helps 8-)

It's within the normal vdimm volts. Most of the ddr2-800 sticks need 2.1v by default.

HELP :(
Cpu - e6400
bios - 0614
ram - 2x512mb pc5300 geil value
everything is set to noramal

My problem
Ok guys as i have a quiet day today at work i decided to bring my computer there and reformatt and have a general clean up! After tidying everything up and cleaning everything i re-built my setup, upon plugging everything in and pressing power my computer won't post ? everything fires up and i'm pretty sure i can hear my hard drive wiring away but i get nothing on the screen, i don't even get a power led on my case anymore yet i know power is there as everything is fireing up!

Things i've tried :
-clearing cmos (including removal of the battery)
-booting the computer on bench (with only cpu, ram, and gfx)

The only thing i have done differently is put a new heatsinc on! but i can't see this as a problem

can anyone help or have they experienced problems with p5b's not posting before? could it be that my computer doesn't like the works old rubbish crt monitor?

I'm having exactly the same problem. Everything is running fine except orthos. I have water cooling and lower OC thou. Raising NB voltage to 1.65V didn't solved the problem.

Anyone?

Up your ram voltage with the Vdata stick till 2.2V, try one ocz stick in the same slot (shut down the pc first ;) )

thanks guy..now I try..but I think it's probably incompatible ram with P5B..:mad:
Tomorrow I call my shop and ask for change with Kingston, Geil or Corsair :toast:

problem solved fellas basically i had just over tightened my TT Typhoon loosened that off any hey presto she's now fireing on all cylinders! :rolleyes:

Anyone got hold of 0708 that was tested by Anandtech or even 0709?

does anyone know what does BIOS beep like this mean(beeeeeep beep beep beep). One long beep and three short beeps. it only plays one time. That happends when I raise my FSB above 400mhz. But I have expirienced it before when my VGA didn't work as it should. I bypass this by turning computer few times off and on. PCI-E freq is set to 101mhz

Please help :)

i have try out rmclock but i cannot choose more than 1.35V

i have try also crystalcpuid but i cannot change the vcore. the multi for the cpu works fine but the vcore no and i can choose any vcore i want.

whoops. wrong thread. doh! ;)

@smartguy

officially its when the graphics card isnt seated properly in its slot but if you overclocking then sounds like the gfx isnt handling well due to the oc.

your PCI-E freq is to high ;) i had the same problem... my pcie freq is now @ 97 and the mashine rocks ;) (p5b del., e6600 @ 3,6ghz, fsb @ 400, ram @ 1000 mhz)

Yeah, raising the Vnb didn't help me in the end.current voltages are,

Vdimm - 2.0
Vcore - 1.6 (1.55idle 1.53 load)
Vfsb - 1.40
Vnb - 1.45

trying Vfsb at 1.45 now and it looks better, but I had it running higher before too.

Yeah I have found that there is a huge difference between SPI 1M and 3dmark or Orthos stable. I can SPI at 4400ish but I'd be under 4100ish totally stable.

I've searched the heck out of this and other threads for info on IDE > SATA adapters. I don't want to use the plagued J-Micron adapter any more and i have 2 optical drives. DVD ROM and DVD-R/W. Will an IDE to SATA adapter work on BOTH drives and which brands of adapters have been the most successful?

INFO PLEASE............

First my specs:

Conroe e6600
Asus P5b Deluxe Wifi
G.Skill pc6400 2GBHZ
XFX 7900GT
320GB SATA
120GB IDE
Zalman 9500CPU Cooler
ANtec NeoHe 500W

I tried 335FSB X 9 at stock core (set to auto in bios). I tried vcore at 1.25-1.3V and it would not POST. Thought the stock vcore is about that range.

That's basically what i did. Beyond 340FSB the system becomes unstable.

Am trying to hit at least 400X 9. Any hints ?

hotchoc.

Have you set all memory timings to manual? and raise the VCore to 1.425 for up to 350FSB easy and memory to 2.1v (agreed I have 4GB PC2-6400 GeIL - but should be the same)

There's also the FSB term and NB Vcore. raise those to 1.30 and 1.45 respectively.

cpu frq - 350
dram frq - auto
pci express frq - 120
pci clock sycro - 33.33 Mhz
Spread spectrum - disabled
Mem voltage - 2.1
cpu vcore - 1.425
fsb termination - 1.3
nb vcore - 1.45

results : BSOD

i didn't do anythign to the
1. ram timings yet
2. C1E support,
