Cant run more than 340FSB, it always error in superPI and prime.
i tried all voltages, all everything, CPU and Memory are good, the only thing is the chipset, whats his problem, it could run before on 350 at least.
Could the Beta bios make errors on Gold Memory test ? same error over and over.
i am using the 2302, should i go back to 2004?
i am losing my mind, no one helps.
Do you get the errors using the same bios setting that you used in the past bios versions?
If the settings are the same and they was good for the past bios versions, you could, according to me:
a) Try to use an older bios version, with wich the settings worked
b) If the settings does not work anymore, you could try to use another psu unit... that's joust an idea.
Well all i can say is picked up my q6600 go yesterday and loaded up Lawry's 2004Go bios and it would boot at 3.0ghz@stock vcore but failed P95 within minutes. Upped the vcore to1.30v and it failed on core3 @8.53hrs and core 4 @8.59hrs so I tried 355fsb and up to 1.4vcore and it would fail in minutes. Now prior to this my E6600 was stable @3.6 400fsb@1.475vcore so I guess it could just be the boards and Quad cores don't mix well. Need to do some more testing before I write it off and start looking elsewhere, shame as I love this boards stability with dual cores!
Ye it worked perfectly with no error in Gold Memory, this error is weird, its just the same error over and over, but prime and OCCT doest show anything.
but before the beta bios there were no errors for 8 hr at least.
No , i didnt get the errors using the same settings.
Thank god, i thought everyone are running Stock Voltage, thats impossible, they dont do full tests and say its stable, what happend to you happend to me too, and i always thought everyone always has better cpus for overclock.
Did you test the BLEND test ? i will revert to 2004 bios.
??? 3.0GHz on stock volts here, ran 8 Hours SmallFFT P95 on all 4 cores. Perfectly stable ever since.
You got really unlucky if the cpu doesn't do 3Ghz on stock volts, most likely the motherboard holding you back.. then again, you have a B3 and holwill and I have G0's.
Correct me if i'm wrong, but i read that holwill has a G0 stepping, while 7007 has
a B3 stepping.
But, 3Ghz, should be an easy target to reach with the core technology, isn't it?
I've readen that the bios 2301 changes some timings settings to a value recommended by intel. Try using that version, maybe you will obtain better results.. i hope.
Thats my doubt: may a psu a limiting factor for cpu overclocking? It would be interesting if holwill could try another psu to push further with the overclocking... or not? :)
Ya.. I believe that is what I said :confused:
975x is not good for clocking quad cores, period.Quote:

No bad luck mate, my vid is 1.2625 and if i need to run 1.30-1.3125 to be stable @3.00ghz for 12hrs+ P95 then no problem, both my e6600 needed more than that @3.0ghz. Now regarding bios's I will stay with lawry's till I hear that the official ones will allow me to disable onboard audio. Overclocking wise it would be nice to get to 3.6 again, but probably this board will not allow that in which case I will move onto a P5K-Deluxe or X38 if the price is right. As it stands performance wise I do not feel any differance really as to be expected .I still need to do some more testing which should not take that long as after having this board for over a year I pretty much know its quirks. But as it stands this is a cracking board for Dual Core Cpu's which is what I originally brought it for and will be remembered as one of the most stable boards I have owned :) .
I'M BACK !!!
Back to E6600 + P5WDH. Arhhh. Tranquility at last.
A three week encounter with a Q6600 + P5K-E/Wifi + Crucial 6400C4 drove me nuts. More BSOD's than any P5WDH owner could ever imagine.
I've sold that stuff and will go Q6600 + X38 + Corsair as soon as X38 is available.
I have a very strange problem. Initially I thought it's memory but now i think maybe it's the motherboard.
Memory is Crucial Ballistix PC2-8500 rated 5-5-5-15
e6600 OC to 3.3GHz
FSB 367
memory 1:1 = 734
Vcore 1.4875
vMemory 2.2
Vdimm 1.4
vMCH 1.6
All CPU options disabled.
SPD enabled, timing set at 5-5-5-18
Orthos/Prime95 25.3 Small FFTs stable for more than 5 hours. But Large FFTs almost always failed at around 1 hour plus 50 minutes. If I lowered the vMemory it failed more early.
Since it is rated at PC2-8500 how come it is difficult to run it at 734MHz? The strange thing is that when not OCing, that is , CPU at 2.4GHz, FSB 266. Then I can jump the memory to 1065MHz and it was stable for several hours in large FFTs. So it seems to be that this motherboard has problem working this memory at 1:1 or hig FSB? When FSB is 367, if I set the memory to higher than 734 (not 1:1 ratio) then it failed more frequently. That is, at FSB 367, the highest memory speed I can get is 734, and it is NOT stable. But when FSB of 266 I can run memory at 1065MHz although it's not 1:1. Well I might be too strict as at FSB367, memory 734, it ran memtest86+ more than four hours no problem. The problem I found is the error at both Orthos and Prime95. Should I worry?
I tried to move memory to slot 1, 3 to slot 2, 4, nothing happened.
Should I replace the memory? BTW the memory module cannot be recognized by my another board ASUS P5K-E but it appear to at least working to some extent in my P5W DH Deluxe.
Comment is welcome. Thanks!
With my Cellshock i dont have this problem, but i do need to give them 2.30V to be stable, or SuperPI fails after couple tests, try another bios, the beta.
QUESTION Please Anwser : What can cause to CRC Failed from extracting files from WINRAR or lets say the game Stranglehold Demo 1.92GB after extracting from RAR it has EXE file which Extract more files, which always CRC Failed in Data2.cab, i tried Opera browser, Maxthon browser, couple servers, from softpedia, Gamershell.
what can be the problem ??
Ok fine sesdave. you can stay but limit your responses to the p5WDH and quit trying to be a salesman for other boards. If guys are interested in opther boards they will find the re,evant thread.
now why on earth are you people in here using memory that must run at 5-5-5-15 at such horrible low fsb speeds. I have shoved 4 sticks of 6400HZ into my machine which means I have to urn it down abit but come on right now I am running 4 sticks at 400fsb with the mem running 1:1 with my timings set at 3-3-3-4. that is with only 2.5V. Too many are just murdering their performance in here with such horrible memory timings.

If your memory won't do it then change it!!
Here is 4 sticks running 425 1:1 with the timings set at 4-4-4-4.

OK now that is all I'm going to say on this. If you can't get good timings it is your own damn fault not the board's.
Now I'll quit befopre I chew my own ass for being a memory salesman. I will say too many of you have bought the wrong memory and the board had nothing to do with that.
WZ
PS. Best stability is actually achieved at 400FSB when you use 3-3-3-5 timings
Does anyone have an idea why i always have CRC errors when i am trying to extract big games or installing games ?
in Gold Memory i have a memory test program in dos always find error same error over and over again, but prime or superPI doesnt find anything.
could be the memory dead ?
Hi.
I have a very strange problem with my bios.
I use the latest beta 2302 bios and all settings in bios are saved on exit as they should except the onboard HD Audio settings and serial port setting. These settings remains enable whatever i do, if i disable them and save and then reboot they revert to enable.
But all other settings like memory timnings, FSB settings and so on are saved on exit
I always do a Cmos reset with the jumper for aprox 30 sec when i do a bios update.
What the heck can be wrong?
I am so tempted to go back to this bord. P5K Deluxe just doesnt clock.
Whats the best BIOS out and working for a E6850 G0 stepping CPU?
Does anyone here give more than 2.20V Memory voltage ?
How much do i need to give my ram to go higher more than 800mhz 1:1 ? my ram is rated 4-4-4-12 800MHZ 2.20, how much is safe , and how far can i go?
please whoever knows.
