Guys I am considering using the onboard sound I am currently using a xi-fi
my reasons are.
some sound quality issues I still get some minor crackles even tho using unshared pci port etc.
creative bloat installed.
Does the onboard sound have as good sound quality for things like movies and music as well as good support for surround sound also does it have eax support for concert hall affects on music etc.
Anyone have a picture of a Asus P5W Dh Deluxe with a 40mm fan cooling at NB or SB ????
Yeah, I'll try and post it tonight when I get home if no one beats me to it.Quote:

How does it work? my motherboard is about 40c now.
Same here...Quote:

What's holding the 40MM fan to the NB heatsink?
I'm looking for extra air for when it gets warmer again...
I'm fairly sure you can just screw a fan directly onto the nb heatsink. The spacing of the fins is generally sufficient to hold the screws.
I will not get tired of saying that the latest from Creative is an overhyped an overprice bad quality product.Quote:

Creative is going downhill, and the only thing saving it is the merkethyped EAX.
Even ASUS has gone a step forward and carry the first PCI-E soundcard on the market.
I made a new record for myself with a Quadcore Q6600 and the Asus P5W DH Deluxe.
Its running @ 3,5Ghz 9x389 Multiplier Vcore 1,48 in bios, and 1,42 in windows
This is on air with a Arctic Freezer 7 Pro (not Lapped) Room temps around 22 a 24c
Have only test my memory to get it lower than 5.5.5.15
Becource it can be lower.
Here a screenshot of mine.

:eek: Good Stuff, what Bios are you running on? How much did you give the other voltages?
I've upgraded my Bios to 2403 but haven't had a chance to play with it yet, just to see if I can squeeze any more out of it.
OK, I have a leftover 40MM from my last case and I'll give that a shot. Thanks...Quote:

It works great..
I have set the FSB Termination to 1,40 volts
Set the MCH chipset to 1,65
and let the ICH set to AUTO.
Memory are on 5.5.5.15 but i'm testing it on 4.5.5.15 and have more perfomerance with the memorytest in Everest ultimate Edition..
I gonna make screenshots stressed and iddle but i dont have time for it now..
Hope that the 8 Phase Design hold it, becource if i feel it with my hands, its verry verry verry hot. (feeling about 80c) Stressed only.
but the chipset and cooler are cold, only the 8 phase power around the CPU are verry hot.
Is that is not a problem ??
I wanted to know if this ram will work with this board?
Kingston
1 GB PC2-8000 SDRAM 240-pin DIMM DDR2 Memory Module - HyperX Series
or
OCZ Technology Group
2 GB ( 2 x 1 GB ) - PC2-8000 / 1000 MHz - DIMM 240-pin - 2 x 1 GB DDR2 Dual Channel Is it even worth it with a E6700,currently running @ 3.0ghz, with 2GB PC2-4200 533MHz 240-pin DDR2 SDRAM but I can't seem to raise my overclock past 3.02 ghz without the system giving me a ram timing issue and shutting itself down.
If these don't work, what would be the best in the 800 MHz range, that I wont need to upgrade later.
[QUOTE=Snake_Eyes;2590102]That's a great overclock you have with a Quad on the P5W, Congrats. Tried it myself last night on BIOS 2403 but failed miserably!Quote:

System used to be stable @ 4x900 with 4x1GB@4.4.4.12. I upped voltages, provided more cooling, whatever bios I use, looser timings, it's only stable @ 4x389. Any idea why my board clocks worse all of a sudden?
[QUOTE=Lurker246;2592055]Yeah it is.Quote:

I dont have used the 2403 bios.
I'm still on the Lawrywild's 2004 bios G0 Edition with 45mn support.
It works great..
I'm now testing my memory to get it to it lowest..
If i done that i post some screenshots stressed @ 3,5ghz on air with a Arctic Freezer 7 Pro.. (not lapped)
Okay here a stressed screenshot with Prime95 Small FFt's
This are a Q6600 @ 3,5 1,4875 in bios and 1,42 stressed.
This with the Asus P5W DH Deluxe..
You know a Quad doesnt clock so high on a P5W DH.
but i get it on AIR with Arctic Freezer 7 Pro (not lapped)
Room temp at stress are 20c and fans @ full speed..
Here the bios settings:
Bios 2004 by Lawrywild.
FSB: 389x9 1:1 @ memory DDR2 800 Kingston HyperX CL4
Vcore in bios: 1,4875
FSB Termination: 1,40
MCH Chipset: 1,65
ICH: set to AUTO.
Memory voltage are 2,10 volt.
No EIST or C1E enabled of cource :P
Are this a nice clock or not ?
I use this overclock not for 24/7 but for benchmark.
I think i set it to 3,3Ghz for 24/7 becource i think (feel) its better :up:

And here the idle screenshot 2 minutes after stress..

hello
why my system crash after the bootlogo from xp?
i have 4GB of this rams
2x -> Corsair XMS2 DIMM Kit 2048MB PC2-6400U CL4-4-4-12 (DDR2-800) (TWIN2X2048-6400C4)
the voltage is on 2.1 and the timings 4-4-4-12. thats from corsair and i have this also in bios.
Been following this thread (bud didn't read it all) since I bought a P5W 1.5 years ago, and only recently had done all the cooling mods, and thought that I could hit 3.3GHz easy, but to my surprise I can't get to 370MHz fsb with any ammount of voltage. The system will post, but windows won't boot.
Also very interesting is that when I get close to 370fsb, bios and windows only detect 1 core (CPU-z and all other software report only 1 core)
My settings:
Ram divider is 1:2, voltage 2.0, timings set to: configure by SPD
Hyper Link Disabled as well as all other auto overclocking features
All CPU thermal features set to disabled
From here I just bump the fsb/vcore to get a stable system:
350Mhz @ 1.4vcore = OK
360Mhz @ 1.42vcore = OK
365Mhz @ 1.42vcore = windows booted OK, 1 core detected :eek: , stopped Orthos after 30min
370Mhz @ all the way up to 1.51Vcore, bumped MCH, ICH and FSB termination one step above default, also tried 2.1v memory = Post OK, BSOD on windows boot
I am very disappointed, I spent the last 3 days hacking and sawing custom heatsinks for all the MOSFETs around the cpu, also replaced the northbridge cooler with a Zalman one, and installed 3 12cm Nexus fans blowing quite a lot of air. Also replaced everything with AS5. All temps have dropped, and the heatsinks on the MOSFETs that are located under the heatpipe on a stock mobo, and above the cpu socket, get quite hot (~42C measured with a thermocouple), which indicates a good thermal conductivity, and these MOSFETs didn't have any cooling from the factory :shrug:
The only part I didn't give proper attention is the southbridge (I couldn't get the heatsink off to lap it, considering that I replaced the thermal paste to AS5 3 weeks ago :shrug: It somehow glued together... :shrug: )
Also before all of my mods I had a chance to switch to a brand new rev 1.04g board, so I did. The BIOS version is 2206
There are so many good people on this thread, so I hope you can give some hints on what is causing the problem, because I really wanted to get 3.33GHz stable after all the effort I put in...
More details on my rig are in my signature...
Any advice appreciated!
Do you recommend the Memory Remap feature to be off or on (As stated in the bios) when running Vista 64 w 4Gb Memory.
does it even make any difference with that setup?
