since that didn't work, I'll drop vcore one, rerun and if that doesn't help drop it again........and if THAT doesn't work I'll get back to ya. ;)
EDIT: pll @ 1.62 and vcore down one notch to 1.55625 and got:

HELP GRNFINGER
xxDayTrader,
What are you cooling that 6600 with? 75c seems way high...

given what i've seen in other posts here, i'm suspicious that i'm putting too many volts to my cpu
all in a Silverstone TJ07 case - all air cooled.
I have some OCZ plats in this board (not sure of the revision off hand, but they are rated @ 2.2v). I can get them to run up to 1063 MHz FSB, but id I go up one more notch on the CPU FSB (from 424 to 425 MHz), they don't post. Still trying to figure them out. Can you post your timings please?Quote:

DRAM Static Read Control: ENABLED
Ai Clock Twister : Mod- Strong

Common Perf. Level : 7
CPU Voltage : 1.4V-1.45 (maybe less)
CPU PLL Voltage : 1.58
North Bridge Voltage : 1.49
DRAM Voltage : 1.98 (your ram is rated for 2.0-2.1V @ 1000MHz)
Loadline Calibration : ENABLED
CPU GTL Reference : .67
North Bridge GTL Reference : .67
DDR2 Channel A REF Voltage : AUTO
DDR2 Channel B REF Voltage : AUTO
DDR2 Controller REF Voltage : DDR2_REF
SB 1.5V Voltage : 1.50
Well I'm going to take the Rampage BIOS dive again. I just got an 8GB kit of Geil Esoteria, and I'm having a little trouble getting it stable. So far I can only get it to DDR2-846 5-5-5-15 (rest set to auto for timings). I'm currently running the latest Maximus Formula BIOS. Any suggestions on the Rampage would be greatly appreciated.
I have my CPU and NB on water too.
I can't seem to find who was asking before, but the question was "what happens when you set the memory FSB to 1066 and all the ram timings to Auto?" The answer: same thing. DET DRAM hang :(
I also played around with setting the NB strap to 333, which brought the ram down to around 1021, then upped the FSB to 425 to see if there was an FSB wall @ 425 and got the hang again.
Grnfinger, that may be it! When I saw that post I figured it would be worth a shot, since I have never messed around with those timings before. I set the vdimm to 2.208v (actual) and set the DRAM CLK Skew on Channel AB to Advanced 350ps , then changed the FSB to 425 and it posted! It even went into Windows perfectly fine. I am now playing around @430 FSB (mem - 1071) and Priming away for about 15 minutes so far. Probably going to reboot and go higher.Quote:

.........AND AWAITING FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS
1071 went for 21 minutes so I stopped it. Now up to 1088 and Priming. How are my mem scores? They look so much better in Everest - I was using SANDRA before, which is reading them about 900 MB/s slower. :(
EDIT: Doh, two cores failed :(
Do any of you other guys use Intel Burn Test for your stability testing? Just asking as i see primarily Prime95 shots.
All right I flashed the latest 0701 Rampage BIOS and all is well at 475FSB. I'm pretty excited now....I was worried that this new Geil Evo One RAM sucked, but it seems it was just the MF BIOS that didn't play well.
I passed stability for an hour in blended.....good enough for now.
No, I just use Prime 95. I've heard some horror stories about people melting MOSFETs while stressing with the Intel tool. I ran it once and saw the temps.....it's WAY beyond what you'll ever experience in any computing environment. I was actually shocked to see how much power my CPU was consuming compared to Prime.Quote:

I have both OCCT and Prime95. I use Pirme95 because I need assistance and with Prime, I get more assistance. Hell, I'd run "I'mAPainInTheAssN00b.exe" if it would help things........ ;)Quote:

My damnit maximus extreme isnīt stable with 500 FSB@1.59 vNB ....
My old rampage did it with 1.35 vNB... Is x38 to x48 so different?
Hey guys is there a fix for the usb ports not working? I connected the front case usb cables and they wont work,is there a setting on the bios or something ?
TY
try a drop or 2 more of FSBT, it should help you, if not post your complete bios setup and I'll try your settingsQuote:

I wonder the chances of me getting 543*7 stable? Man that would be insane for memory performance.....now that my NB is on water I can push the juice. I seriously doubt it's possible......but one can dream, right? :p
I wish this chip had half multipliers.
on a 65nm quad?? I would like to see that :up:
Is it just me or does my RAM performance seem week for 1066?

Hehe I know, that would be badass.Quote:

Grn,
Any ideas on a black screen of death while priming?
I got my TRUE 120 today bumped up to 3.7 fine, primed for a few hours fine, bumped to 3.8 boot to windows ran a quick PI 1M, fired up prime ran 2 cycles reboot/BSOD, no blue screen no errors just like its rebooting the more voltage i toss at it the faster it crashes.....I'm thinking PSU.
Also anyone experience weird problems after a power outage or disconnecting power? This thing hangs on USB devices, loses hard drives, everytime after unplugging it to work on, never did it with the maxximus formula bios's. I have to pull all USB sticks out and unplug and plug one of my sata drives in to get it to realize it's there.
I've never experienced such issues with my MF. Do you have the PCI-E OCed high?Quote:

Zucker or grnfinger (or whoever with experience on this board with a 65nm quad and 8GB):
What timings do you suggest I run on my Geil Evo Ones? I can post my BIOS settings later, but I'm at 8*475 Prime blended stable with the same timings as SPD, except 18 instead of 15....I'll post more later when I get home from work.
I would like to run DDR2-1128 or so if possible.....I think these Evo Ones can take the voltage. The heatsink on them is amazing.
Do I gain performance from lower multplier, and higher FSB?Quote:
