already sent all my info to franck, did some info dumps and talked to him about the problem. hopefully he has some insight that helps find whats happening, and why 1052 doesnt work for me but does for others.

Also 6x and 7x 450 fsb is easy to do on Quadcore and 680i. When you say you are doing 450 fsb I thought it was higher than 6x or 7x. Try to get Cpu speed over 3.5 ghz with more than 360 fsb then you have accomplished something, otherwise you have just done what everyone else has... 479x 6 was my max fsb on this board with X3220. Still 360x9 was also the max with higher multiplier.
As you lower multiplier your FSB speed can increase with quadcore. Try setting multiplier to 11 or 12 and you won't be able to make it past 300-310. Same reason you see a lot of the quadcore 3d scores with 310x15 or so.
Version 1051 works fine here
all I can say then is show us.Quote:

at 3.6 it boots at over 60C, so I cant do anything more then boot.
if you can get 480, show me.
I want to see how.
as for "set 11 or 12"...
your right.
it wont work.
my highest multiplier is 8...
seems you should know that since you have almost the same CPU. :rolleyes:
A couple of observations with QX6700 after testing many things that are talked about here (bios = 0702beta) :
- max fsb Orthos stable is 348Mhz no matter what I try
- dropping multiplier to 6 or 7 does not change FSB max at all (in my case)
- removing 8800GTX and going with PCI card did not change anything (in my case)
- max vcore I seem to be able to set is 1.36V real, if I set anything above that in bios it just reverts to 1.36V
- memory testing with quad core has been crap so far : I haven't been able to clock above 1100Mhz manually. The best I ever got was with my Dominator PC8888 modules : 1111Mhz cas 4 when I use the "SLI" setting. I have several sticks of memory that scales above 1200Mhz on P5B-deluxe but none so far here.
I hope all this changes when I move to Conroe tomorrow or the day after, but I'll stick with Bad Axe 2 or P5B-del for quad core, for now anyway. Maybe the GTL mod can do some good on these boards as well ?
wanna try something for me.
set your FSB to 1467 (366) and then set it to linked.
set the ram ratio to Auto.
your ram will wanna boot at 1.1 ghz...
but that might work.
thats been the highest stable overclock I been able to get from this CPU+Board so far.
Thanks :) I'll try that when I get home tonight and report back.Quote:

Question: Are you guys saying that I will not be able to run 420x10?
Hmmm how about 350x12 any luck?
350x12, but you are talking about 320w of heat from your cpu. This may be too much for your phase to take.
You're right, but he's got a chilly1/modded Mach II so 4.2Ghz could be possible :)Quote:

I was hoping this would do the trick but well see.
Can anyone suggest a way to get a higher multi on the x6800 stable? I'm currently running at 12x dead stable (just under 3.2) and would like to up it to 13x (whats the point of an unlocked multi fi you don't use it?). My temps are mid to low 40's max currently so I doubt another multi bump would be outside my cooling potential.
When I have tried it the system crashes or reboots on start up. Thus far all settings in bios at stock.
I would be fine with 3.5 or thereabouts (the multi will up it to 3.458 Ghz) Up the FSB a few points and 3.5 should be easy.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
320w? Do you mean 230w? How did you arrive at that number?Quote:

On E6700 (ES step 5) / bios 0702beta :
- If I go for stock vcore I get around 1.26-1.28, confirmed by Multimeter (normal values I'd say)
- If I go a little higher, but less than 1.35V, I get 1.36V vcore (multimeter confirmed) :confused:
- if I go above 1.35V, I get 1.44V-1.46V (multimeter confirmed as well)vcore :confused: :confused: :confused:
I went all up to 1.5V but it stayed at 1.46V. I didn't go higher as I'm still on quite lowly air cooling, will try later on phase.
What is going on here ? Thoughts or ideas anyone ?
up the 1.2VHT to 1.5 or higher.Quote:

Robilar, its been awhile since we have talked at OCN...
If you want a step by step send me a PM and ill walk you through it. Both Wax and I have had very solid luck with the x6800 and the 680i chipset...
You know where to reach me ;)
Hi!
Got p5n32-e SLi rev A2 board with 0602bios few days ago.
First look was nice to see that vCore voltage problems are gone.
With 0602 Bios (was already intalled) if i set voltage to 1.5 i got 1,47 what was pretty good.Vcore voltage goes up to 1,9V. Probably 1,85 real, wich is more than enought.
memory on my board is little overvolted. with 2,3V in bios i get 2,35 in reality.
Board works like a charm, no problem what soever.
Running Celeron D 347 @4600mhz with 1,55V (1,52) with stock cooler.Cant go higher because CPU gets too hot.
Waiting quadcore to go cheaper. :rolleyes:
Yesterday installed 0702 bios but see no differene. Working just fine.
passive cooling on motherboard is cool enought with my Celeron D. No need to put extra fan on it yet.
D9DQW Fatbodys are working like miracle on this board.
Running 2gb Dualchannel @800mhz 4-3-3-7 1T with only 2,2V!
Havent tried 2T yet. Probably will do 1200-1300 easy.
Priice of this board is also much cheaper now. i got it 260$ in europe.
Nice board!:banana3:
With BIOS 0702 max real vcore is 1,55V no matter what voltage you set in BIOS. Using a X6800...
P5N32-E SLI Rev.2?? or do you mean the "Plus"? i didnt know there was a Rev.2 for this board.. =SQuote:

My ram doesnt seem to respect dividers...just speed and timings and command rate.
i cant git past 480 fsb...had nb set at 1.75!! no deal shameel; anyway super high fsb means much more to people who have super high cpu clocks like 4gig+...like over 9000 mb/s: wow.
tried 5:6 and 9:11...no problems at all; but i've tried heaps of dividers and they all seem to work...
my ram responds exactly the same regardless of dividers.
After some testing I get the following vcore results with 0702beta bios :
- when the motherboard is in auto, standard, AINOS or AIclock mode, vcore adjustments are normal, so if you set 1.6V, you get 1.55 real. That's quite some droop, but anyway, it works.
- when you put the motherboard on manual clocking up to 300FSB all is fine : vcore adjustments follow bios
- anything above 300FSB is completely messed up. You can set whatever you like, the board decides different, and I can't get over 1.36V real now.
I'll try some other settings in bios next, and then switch to an earlier bios in the hope it gets better.
looks like what my Plus didQuote:

I guess non-Plus and Plus ver. do need serious Bios update for Vcore !!!
Anyone have tried eva2000's voltage pin mod? How do voltages behave then?
Bios 0302 lets me change vcore (but you can't see it in bios or Asus Tool). I can measure the changes though.
Bios 0302 is the only bios so far that they havent totally screwed up.
each bios just gets a new set of bugs.
sometimes the NB voltage past 1.6 volts fails the board to boot ever again.
sometimes you have no control over the Vcore anymore.
sometimes you have a incredibly low Vcore.... set 1.9 volts to get 1.76 volts.
so far, the bios with the least amount of problems for me, is 0302.
0602 is ok though.
atleast I can fool it to boot at Vcore voltages I need, in that bios and all the other voltages act normal.
