Give me a few mins, I just got done playing crysis. The reason its so cold is because I have a fan next to my computer and the window open with a fan in that, Look up my area code 49007 on weather.com, you can see its cold here.Quote:

Whoa, you might wanna rethink that 2.0v on PLL... good way to kill something :)Quote:

I really wish that I would've waited for the Abit.
I have set the "Loadline Calibration" to "Enabled" in the Bios and I dont have anymore Vdrop:up:
I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but the highest I have gone with NB is 1.80, but that was for a higher overclock. It reds out at 1.75.Quote:

VCore is not an optimal value, I think lower value is possible.
I tested for stability @ 4GHz (1.55Volts for VCore), OCCT runs five minutes withouth stability issues, but the temperature is too high to continue the test.
I think, it is possible to be stable at 4Ghz :D
Just edit the monitoring system and tell it max temp is 90CQuote:

Now it's time to start using Prime95 eh? What is PLL anyway? I only know of a Phased Lock Loop from electronicsQuote:

CPU: idle/stepdown temps at ca 32 C, OCCT full load ca 47 C
VERY happy with both the low volt and temps. Have not tried going lower in core volt.
NB: idle temp at ca 41 C, OCCT full load ca 49 C

OCing from default 2.4GHz only gave a 3DMark boost of about 200.
Looks like I can easily OC the CPU alot more, but dont feel the need yet. UT3 demo with all set to max and 1600x1200 is slicker as snott :p:

Anybody is having troubles running G.skill HZ on the Maximus?
I thought I would quickly post my experience with this motherboard.
Assembled machine with an E6850 and 4GB of Kingston HyperX PC8500 memory. No matter what I tried, could not get the memory stable on this motherboard at any speed or by adjusting any of the BIOS settings. I had two pairs of memory, and it is highly unlikely all 4GB sticks were faulty. I had tried individual sticks, 1 pair, and 2 pair. The sticks were stable in a different brand motherboard and passed memtest86 without any problems there.
I ended up purchasing 4 1GB Corsair PC8500 and right from the start those were stable. The only adjusting I had to do with the BIOS is set the RAM to 2.2V and specify the speed at 1066--everything else set to AUTO. RAN OCCT and PRIME95 for two nights and had no problems.
Anyone else have luck with Kingston memory on this board? My experience was very bad and spent many hours trying to fiddle with the BIOS and had no success.
Hi,
wich Memory should i buy for Maximus Formula?
At moment i use 4x 1GB (2x Kit) Corsair Twinx2048 XMS2-6400C4 Rev. 2.1@2.1V, but i can't get it stable under Vista x64.
Tonight (MET) i will buy new Memory. 2x2 GB in a Kit, but wich Memory works at Maximus Formula perfect?
What i need:
1. 100% stable Memory for Dualchannel + option to extend to 8 GB (4x2 GB)
2. DDR2-800 who can make 450-500 MHz (to overlock Q6600 to 3400GHz)
3. Latency 5-5-5-15/18 @ 500 MHz
thanks for help
I might add that 1.6v in bios uses 1.7v on PLL....I usually set mine to 1.5vQuote:

since my system is stable in this lowest setting, it is unnecessary to set it higher to produce more heat!
Hi, here http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=669218 they are selling version 2 of this motherboard. Dunno the difference, perhaps someone else does?
Chris
People should stop screaming they got a stable OC at for exemple 3.9GHz because OCCT Auto on a 30 mn test said that.Quote:

Alternatively, use Prime95 small FFT for CPU, but Blend mode in Prime95 is far less efficicient than RAM mode in OCCT
Also, update OCCT to last beta. Just read this long thread, and you'll find the link.
My little advice, to new comers in OC world (yep, 30mn testing can't be claimed to be a stable OC)
Sorry, no one take it personal
Humm, nothing on ASUS site on a PCB v2, could it be an error? or maybe a marketting in purpose omission?Quote:

Go for Crucial Ballistic BL2KIT12864AA1065 2GB kit will clock to over 1200 at 5,5,5,15 or 1066 at 4,4,4,12 on this board excellent memory.Quote:

I should add that vista x64 installed with 4GB no problem.
My Ballstixs are not playing well with these motherboard at all. Sometimes I have to remove one stick to get the system to post.
WB have you tried 0701?

I have just put my new board in the case and hooked everything up. I cannot find the connector to the front audio/mic connections. The manual mentions how to set the bios settings, but I did not see any reference to the connector on the MB.
On the back on the SupremeFXII card. :cool:Quote:

you can change the priority level in OCCT.
It is not in manual, but you can use the connector on the back of the supreme FX pci-e card;)Quote:

It WILL NOT boot any other way for me!
I mean, not even with the right volts, Like i wanted to push 2.6 volts with ultra low timings and low clock rate, and the motherboard failed to post.Quote:

BIOS v0802, it's not up on US sirte yet. as of right now , 12:45AM on 11-19-07. Where did you guys find it? ASUS BIOS history list it as latest but not showing as available to download yet.
As for that RAM issue on this mobo. Half the problems you guys are having is likely the Strap and RAM deviders.
@ the guy who "I can't even post at 2.6volts with 4-4-4-4 timing and a clock of 1050mhz no matter what memory strap.". 1st off, that's a lot of volts for this RAM. I have the same and 2.34v is pretty hot already unless you're gonna go water or heatpipe w/ extreme fans. 2nd, if on BIOS v0701 still, I couldn't get anywhere with manual strap with 1:1. Had to leave strap and RAM frequency in Auto to get it to POST and get 1:1 (confirmed in CPU-Z). Also, if you're looking to OC on this, stick with 2 sticks of 1 g each for 2gb kit total for best OC stability and goopd timings and performance. 4 sticks can work but w/ reduced timings and of corse not best for OC'n too high. Just my experince on past few Itel chipsets.
Good luck!
omg...*smacks forehead*Quote:

You are just feeding me common knowledge...You know these right? If you look at my P5K records, I was able to get 1350Mhz 2.5 volts easy, 5-6-6-17 timings.
And Yes If you read though these thread I have Hardcore air cooling. I got a 8800GTX to idle at just 40C with stock cooling. A Highly overclocked Quad to run at 27C, So please....
I have 2 x 1GB sticks...I've stated that a few pages back too.
"4-4-4-4 timing"
I don't see it being possible.
3-3-3-6 and 4-4-4-8 i've no problems with
So, bios 0802, how is it? Quads overclocking any better? Higher FSB?
its very possible.Quote:

Also the same CPU temp issue that was present w/ 0701 appears unchanged in 0802.
I haven't checked any of the other straps yet. I hope I can finally get stable using a divider on the 333 Strap that would definitely help memory speed.
the 400mhz strap with the 2nd divider is still not working :(Quote:

My speeds went up at 450x8 DDR2 900 4-4-4-8-3-25-3-3-7-5-4-6-4-6

No good news.
with all bioses incl. 0802, i can not boot a stable vista x64 system with:
4x 1 GB Corsair Twinx2048 XMS2-6400-C4@400 MHz@ 2.1V@5-5-5-18

If only 1 Kit are installes (= 2 GB) System and Board works very fine.
Anybody using a Creative soundcard in the first pci slot?

0505 didn't do this for me...? I'm not fussed about whether it's on Auto or not, more that they seem to have broken more than I can see they've fixed...
I am able to boot 500*8 no issues with my 6850. Very easy to work with on this board.
Are the DImm slots just like the P5K deluxe , that the black dimms where better then the yellow dimms for overclocking, so on this board white/blue, any difference? And are the Crucial ballistix really that bad on this board? Because I got very nice pair that can do 1200 5-5-5-12 @ 2.05v , so I want to pick another pair. I can get most likely the same batch as I bought mine recently , so would 1000/1200mhz for 4x1GB , if they can do 1200 5-5-5-12 @ 2.05v @ 2x1GB , possible on this board with sub 2.15v-2.20 volts? Or should I get a 2x2GB Gskill 8000 instead:X
Awesome, thanks. I can't wait to see what this bad boy can do.Quote:

@Pete, "I've really no idea how the hell i got 500FSB, l;east i know my bord can and will do it i guess, but more so i wana know why it didn't do it with all 4's.". Look @ my post, you'll see that since BIOS v0401 (origional for me in US on 10-11-07) I had 500x8 in moments. So Yes, this bobo is easily and stable to 500x, he muli an dso is limited to your CPU, and a lot and since a lot of you guys are using quads, it's gonna' take a bit more to et hat kind of FSB out of them. A lil bit of GTL can help along w/ some more FSBT. Workde for me on P5K Deluxe. As for the RAM, try 1:1 w/ less timings as before. 500x is gonna' be DDR1000 so that should be just as good, if not better then loose DDR1200. Besides, this mobo doesnt do 1200 in alll 4 slots. 4 slots of DDR1000 should be good to go.
@ mXpS, That E6850 should be great on this mobo. You should see that 500x7 is a snap w/ low temps and vcore. Keep us posted.
@Kup, "I f however I set the strap and the ram MHz to Auto it's boots @ 1:1 anyway..." This exactly what I pointed out for v0701, 0602 was fine for certain variables.
Hi Nuckin_Futs,Quote:

Thanks a lot!
Still stuck @ 1066MHz on the 400FSB Strap (4:3) w/ 0802.
I haven't seen any improvement w/ this BIOS but will wait for the change log before going back to 0602.
Well i'm officially fed up. I can't get my E6550 above 450x7 now. I suppose 3.15ghz out of a 2.33ghz ain't bad, though I was hoping to get to the magic 500fsb = 3.5ghz! Never mind.
I can't even see 0701 BIOS from ASUS's site! 0602 is the latest BIOS shown. What is up with this?
Could you post your bios configuration (or screen shot it)?Quote:

Notice the Auto settings of FSB strap and RAM Frequency. In this BIOS v0802, I cannot use anything outside of Auto to keep 1:1 so unless, you must have deviders, then Auto is fine for 1:1. Also since every mobo is different, try to adjust the settings as marked by "*". Try DRAM Clock Twister to Light or Auto , or Static REad Control to Auto (this does return better strap scaling for FSB over 450 if strap is left in Auto). Keep RAM Booster to Disable but relax 1, 2 or so on, as needed for stability under overclocking (anything other then "0" does effect RAM scores). CPU, PLL, & vdimm can be tweaked as needed for your components. Settings were the same since BIOS v0401 except I could manual strap and set DRAM Frequency as fixed, although it made no noticable difference for me. Even w/ strap in Auto, RAM deviders are just grouped together in a bigger menu.
Can you E6750 or E6850 users let me know how this works for your mobo?
Hope this helps!
I just flashed to 802 bios, and now my system is not posting, with DET DRAM freezed on the LCD poster...
Can anyone help me?

Change the Strap to Auto. Also the ram freq'! It seems to be a bug with this bios...
I am seriously contemplating selling this board, I've had it...
Strap and RAM frequency? Yes, it seams to be a bug in this v0802 and BETA v0701. It was fine in V0602. I think most of the current fixes were focused on FSB/DRAM ratios outside of stable 1:1 since most are thriving that high memory clock speed to lower CPU FSB. So for us high CPU/Mobo FSB overclocker, Auto is fine since it seams to fix as 1:1 anywayz. I did however, get 5:6 as DDR1200 in 500x7 so that works if strap is left in "Auto", since as far as I can see, the various deviders of the other straps are all combined now, untill you fix to a manual strap. Again, I cant say I see a differance of this for the native 1333 CPU's. It did help back when using these 1333 CPU's on !975X mobos, if fixed to 1066.
thanks for the OC bios's
