I just got my board, and it is my first DFI board, do any of you have some settings for a Q6600, espacially I never worked with GTL and dont know what it does, yes working with asus board is easy, I got a Q6600 that needs 1.288vcore for 3.6ghz and 3.825 ghz for 1.376vocre, and i got some pair of ballistix that are capable of 1200mhz 5-5-5-12 @ 2.00v. settings for 450x8, to start with? or 425x9? Thnx!
Its the northbridge as it cant process all the data from all the dimm slots fast enough when set at full speed. Thats why two 2gb stick are better as it only use`s two dimm slots and this helps the mhc.Quote:

gtl nb 80
That means I should not do 4 sticks @ 4-4-4-1 @ 1000mhz if I could ? :(Quote:

Agreed..... :p:
From the Intel X48 data sheet. Doubtful Intel would spec a configuration that would damage the MCH.

The Config Raid array screen is displayed upon each bootup and lasts good 2 seconds... didnt have this holdup before so im not seeing any improvenent in boot times here!
Can disable this raid config being displayed each bootup? If not then going sell HD seems more hassel then its worth perhaps?
Any word on when the new BIOS will be out? Thanks.Quote:

@ Clunk Thank you Very much for the GTL settings, they helped alot.
@ Praz You are a wealth of information kind Sir. Just wanted to let it be known I value all the help from both of you :)
Larry
Each GTL setting in the BIOS has it's own opamp. The input of each opamp is tied to VTT. The value set in the BIOS determines the output of each amp.Quote:

does it have to make sense lmaoQuote:

everything much hotter now with those high gtls i gonna lower thaem a bit
Guys just read the thing a bit more carefully...Quote:

So when you see a 110 in bios it's actually 0.812v measured with a DMM by Clunk and the differences between the GTL's is because Clunk is trying to make our life even easier, so to get both GTL's on the ball park of 0.81v for a 1.213vtt (1.250v in bios) as an example, you should use 110 on one and 105 on the other that will give a 0.812-0.816 on each (67% of 1.21vtt)!
Go with Clunk's chart that you will see the stability happening. But ofcourse some boards like different percentages, my X48 loves 69% so I used the chart to find the real 69% on each GTL...
I should point out that the voltages were measured by Jimmy @ DFI :up:
just finished running prime for 2 hours , cpu ram mixed. all passes ! yesss!
so far i have 475fsb x8 =3.8ghz memory =1140mhz.
still sometimes it when i start it up , it turns on and off. but it did that with a 450fsb. i think its ok.... i hope lol
in bios i have -cpu vtt1.250
gtl 1/2 110
gtl 0/3 105
n.b gtl 80
is that right even for dual core? i read before that gtl 0/3 was for quad?
also my nb is at 1.456v is that too high? should i try reducing it abit?
GTL0 is for core 0 and GTL1 is for core 1. Whatever GTL value that brings stability to your system is the right value.Quote:

thanks praz.

guess it means unstability.:down: should i try uping my cpu vid?maybe to 1.47v ?
