I've run several bios versions since April with the q9450. I have yet to really crank it up b/c my fusion block leaked and I'm planning a replacement. I've been on bios 1101 since mid may. I'm stable but I haven't pushed it yet.Quote:
I am not shure I went straight to the latest Beta when I built my system last week ,I have a Q9450 and its running fine so far.
I flashed to 1007 to get my system running. Noticed that it won't let me disable Speed Stepping for some reason. :confused:
Do not remember exactly, but this happened with my Maximus Formula.Quote:

Sorry can not help more.

Finally got the dump.
Used WinFlash.
Hope it is not corrupted like the last one.
Dump attached.
Thanks for bios dump :up:
the file is right but the card dont boot :shrug:, so now im back to 2900 XT and Softmod.
ATI FireGL V7600 BIOS: 113-B00221-101 FGL R600 GDDR3_16Mx32 256bit 512MB 601e/800m
ATI HD 2900 XT BIOS #1:113-B00602-100 R600 GDDR3_8Mx32 512bit 512MB 507e/514m
ATI HD 2900 XT BIOS #2:113-B00602-103 R600 GDDR3_8Mx32 512bit 512MB 507e/514m
I will try more later with Hex Workshop
Actually, we might what to go the other way. Load a V7600 with a HT2900 bios. The V7600 clock and mem can not be tweeked. Maybe with the HT2900 bios the V7600 could be tweaked.Quote:

Any one using a Q9450 and getting some good results? , would you mind posting your Settings ,I am having a really tough time with mine, I cant get it stable past 375 fsb, and 400 fsb 400 strap is BSOD central.
What the performance using 4x2gb modules on this board. I'm thinking of picking up another 4gb of the Patriot DDR3-1333 cas 7 since it's come down so much. Any issues other than oc headroom?
The Rampage Extreme is finally being reviewed. I am interested to see if the Rampage Extreme bios can be flashed to Maximus Extreme (I flashed my P5E to the Rampage Formula with ease). The question is, how different of an animal is the new board?
Bit-tech.net: Asus Rampage Extreme – Niche New Features
Tnx for the info about Rampage Extreme :o
I've been waiting for this board to surface since I saw the "Pinot Noir" pictures in Feb.Quote:

I will test to flash ASUS Maximus Extreme to ASUS Rampage Extreme when i get BIOS file
i have tested this:
Maximus Extreme -> P5E3 DELUXE WiFi-AP
Maximus Extreme -> P5E64 WS Evolution
I guess this board is dead in the water, there isnt really any riveting posts or input in here of late, and as for q9450 input its basically non existant.
I think I may have made a mistake getting this board.
Just give it some more time. Hopefully the Rampage Extreme bios will be cross flashable, and we can get more out out of the board (more then likely in the ram department).Quote:

How can I fix this? I want sound! :(
simri have you recieved any good results yet with a crossflash on this board? I am have to move heaven and earth to get any form of OC with my q9450
Anyone using the EK 3a mosfet blocks on this mobo? coz mine didn't come with the O spacers, i'm using EK barbs with the recesed O ring and i do have the spacers to hand if you think i shouls use them?
thanks in advance for your help
Kind Regards

If so there is a article about this on the ASUS forum:
http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?...Language=en-us
And the Microsoft TechNet:

Also might want to update audio driver from ASUS.
Hope that helps.
Well just got my 3rd mobo from RMA.
Powered it up and one long and 3 short beeps (VGA).
Well maybe my FireGL V7600 finally bit the bullet.
Put in my 9800GX2 and same thing.
WTF! :mad:
So then put the FireGL V7600 in the second slot, fired right up.
Now I have to send this thing back for the 4th time.
ASUS Tech support was willing to send me another refurbished board.
So I told them that I was tired of getting reworked boards and could I get a new one?
Well of course, the tech could not authorize that, so I had to wait for a supervisor.
Well, I did have to wait a while, but they are Cross Shipping me a NEW board. :up:
Guess it just proves that if you want something ask for it.
Now we will see what I really get. :rolleyes:
MIne did not come with the green O's either but I am using the EK backplates anyway so I did not need them.Quote:
