Works now.Got no clue why tho,i just was in rage and pushed new bioses in and after a while it worked.

Clearing BIOS allways seems to help, pulling the battery, pushing the on button and letting it sit for a while works on these ASUS MB's I have found.
Glad you got it back up and running.
My system sometime restart (BSOD)
I tested prime95 small FFTs and blend and memtest2.1 everything stable more than 3.5 hours .
I can't figureout what is the problem, please give advise, thanks

Run linpack and see if it passes, run a 10 loop test, 5 sometimes will not show an error. If it passes I dunno maybe start looking at your PSU?
But I would run linpack first.
I'm going to be saying farewell to this board soon.
My first true overclocking board :D

The E8600 is on air ( gotta true cooling it ) my AC is set to a frosty 60c to help push the chip.
It will be an interesting evening.
60c? Holy crap didn't know AC can go that high...or did you mean 60f?Quote:

The BSOD is just blue screen and lots of white word I can't read anything because it flash quickly and then restart
EDIT : just ran linpack and it passed 5 loop

My max FSB with MAximus X38 is 425 on any multi, best I could do was 425x8.5

So looks like the Maximus X38 is gettting slightly better bandwidth but I'm sure I can correct this with some ram tweaks but didnt do any tweaks.
MIIF is the clear winner with 45nm quads it will bench up to 4.2GHz but wanted to post only STABLE settings
Next is E8600
We will start with an easy 4.0GHz and work up from there.
Wow man. that's looking good... Glad to see the baby is up and running for ya. Then seeing if the Max. II board is any better

Great Grnfinger, can you share your bios settings for your 4.2Ghz, 4.5Ghz and 4.5Ghz/Ram up?
Would like to try them out...TH;)

PLL, VTT and NB all were alot less on the P45 board, temps were cooler on the P45 as well.
Nice compare Grnfinger :up:
Worth or not, upgrade from maximus to maximus II ?
This is my maximus rampage :D

That's an interesting wall on that MF, Grnfinger. I still think x48 is hard to beat; you fellas better get RF while supplies last.... lol, I know, I sound like an Asus pr person.

2x2GB G.Skills @ 1129Mhz 2.10v
Windows Vista x64, SP1
Ambient temps , 23-25c (73-78f)
Here's an hour of p95 blend... I've primed this chip at 4080Ghz, and have seen temps hit 90c with IBT test. This chip is surely a keeper. Highest FSB tested stable is 390 @ 8x390. I haven't tested higher.
Birthday money FTW :DQuote:

HD4850 @840/2000Mhz 1.32v 42ºC Full Load
Hi everyone,
After having been ripped off by Crucial for some new revision Crucial Ballistix Tracers PC8500 (single-sided crappy sticks :down:, stay away from these!!) without being informed of the change beforehand, I decided to get rid of my older 2x1024mb kit as well, and completely swap over to the G-Skill F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK sticks. They arrived saturday morning, and I've been trying to get them to run stably at least at their rated speed of 1066mhz, but have been failing miserably. I was hoping somebody could tell me what settings I should change to obtain a higher memory frequency? I'm running a P5E Deluxe (x48) rampaged with 0401. I've posted a screen shot with my mem timings @ 519Mhz, which I luckily managed to get prime stable, but I still wouldn't mind climbing higher, especially considering a lot of people here seem to have great results with them... :D My bios voltages are as follows (read by Everest):
FSB VTT: 1.50v
NB core: 1.52v
SB core: 1.07v
SB PLL: 1.54v
and I've been needing to set the DRAM voltage to 2.2v in the bios to get them to run stable, any lower and I get hundreds of memtest86 errors in no time...:shrug:
Thanks alot for any suggestions in advance!

How far is it "safe" to push vcore on a Q9550?
It is well cooled and stays below 60C under load, with 1,4 V running through it. I'm trying to push FSB beyond 440 in a Maximus Formula 1207 BIOS
:-O
