Running Win 7. about 70% of the time I reboot the machine I can't get an internet connection through this board. I need to change ports on the nic or reboot once or twice. Does anyone else have this problem?
Influence
This is the stock bandw i have at 4500 1600 CL 7-8-7-24 PL8 Turbo
some stability test at 24C ambient (thanx to my new system, could never do this before at this temp)

some everest bandw stable

this is not stable but nice bandw and 1T :)

Some of the EP45's have problem with the nic's. Not sure how or if there is a fix other then RMA.Quote:

Not bad at all, I did expect something a little higher but I'm guessing there's probably some bottlenecking when running DDR3 on P45. Thanks for the info once again :)Quote:

All I gotta do now is wait for my good friend to come through for me.
Hey guys, I need your help on this. I picked up a Q9550 to replace my E8400 for my multi-threaded apps(converting to i7 = too much money cause of new board and memory), and along with that I purchased the ECO A.L.C. Liquid cooler (similar to the H50, which wasn't in stock). The batch number is L932B343 (packed September 2009) and it's an E0. When I checked the VID it was 1.150v, so I thought getting 500 FSB on my UD3P would be not all that hard(Isn't the UD3P one of the best for reaching high FSB frequencies on quads?).
Well, I cannot get it stable at 500 FSB no matter what settings I try(believe me, I have spent the last 10 hours on this with different settings and I'm about to pull my hair out). Even with the multi at 6x I could only get into windows by overvolting the VTT and MCH to 1.4v and then it still froze a second after prime 95 Blend. All of this instability results in freezing. I have only had a BSOD a few times, which was the pfn_list_corrupt and the other was the infamous uncorrectable hardware error.
I raised the vcore really high to 1.4 with LLC (around 1.38 in cpu-z) and got into windows at 4.0 GHZ and got an error after about 5 minutes in Prime Small FFT. But I don't understand this. It's a low VID chip. How come it needs 1.4 volts just for 4.0 GHZ? And Prime 95 blend was still freezing up too, so I'm at a loss. Could it just be my really old dusty memory? I've had it for over 2 years and I don't think it likes the 1:1 divider anymore especially at 500 FSB (although it worked with my E8400, but after extensive tweaking). It's 800mhz ram but it says it can run at 1000 with higher voltage and timings so maybe I've pushed it over its limits? But it's not failing memtest or anything so I have no idea what is wrong.
I have this weird gut feeling that this ram is somehow forcing my CPU to eat volts like crazy just to be semi-stable. I just don't want to believe that running at 500x8 should take that amount of voltage on such a low VID chip. Let alone, low vid chips are hotter, so my temps were pretty high when I did that.
Should I consider picking up a proper set of 1066 rated memory? Maybe it would solve half of my problems right there:ROTF:
well yes mate me also but i didnt expect that P45 could run 1T will be nice on faster RAM :up:Quote:

better than eat quads for breakfast :rofl:Quote:

The best I managed with my extreme so far, the 4:5 divider needs quite a bit of MCH but vdimm is nice & low (and can probably go lower):

Yes 1T was always a nice boost way back when AMD ruled the roost and it always made the system much 'snappier'. Your new rams will no doubt get the same results, looking forward to seeing them!
Thanks Rob ! im happy with it let's see if the mobo can hold those beasts...Quote:

Andres, I'm sure you can squeeze a little bit more out of it.
First image is EP45T-USB3P with G.Skill ECO Low Voltage @ DDR3-2000 CAS 7. Same RAM on EX58-UD3R @ DDR3-1600 CAS 6 in the second screnshot.
thanks mate i know but thats 8,5 multi...im at x9 wich is less bandw...Quote:

Thanks. Yeah, they're both at 500FSB, and DDR3-2000. The difference is CAS 7 vs CAS 9. Your higher clock speed at CAS 7 should net you better read speeds, at least.Quote:

Though it still doesn't explain why it needs just over 1.3 volts on a 1.15 VID chip, I've seen lower vcore at that FSB and multi on higher VID chips. Could somebody shed light on this please? :)
What got me prime blend stable and Linpack stable was screwing around with the clock skews. First I set MCH clock skew to 50ps; blend went from freezing right away to freezing after about 8 minutes. I then upped it to 100ps and added 50ps to the CPU clock skew and I ran blend for 30 minutes and it passed, same with 5 passes of Linpack. Still doesn't mean it's completely stable but I guess I'm at a good starting point.
Here's my settings by the way. I tried to remember them as best as I could.
LinX brings my temps up to a max of 66/66/68/68 is this okay? I want to push to 4250 eventually but I'm not sure if I can get that now. I wasn't expecting it to get this hot especially at only 1.328 volts but maybe the low VID at 1.150v has something to do with it, which is why I am certain there's a way to get this below 1.3v. I'm on integrated liquid cooling too, with 2 fans on either side of the rad pulling in from the outside and into the case and out the top so I was expecting a bit better temps.Code:******Motherboard Intelligent Tweaker (M.I.T.)******

Hi mate. Temps are great considering it's linx, The low 80's is the absolute limit whilst running this imo so you've got plenty of headroom. Some say low vids are often a sign that it will run high clocks on low volts, and/or can also get hotter than higher vid chips. I'm sure you can push further and you've got it at a nice, low voltage for that speed, so go for more! Some DDR1200 would have been a better combo, but it seems your chip is set to do well, and you could look at pushing quite a lot further with some careful tweaking :)
