can somebody post bios settings ? i'm maxed out @ 4000mhz ram 2x2gb gskill hz @ 7-7-7-18 1.9v 1600mhz i cant go any further .. any further will make my system unstable ... help pls !!! bios version 1406

I sold mine now. Its just to picky with memory. And i got 5 DDR3 Kits here.
I got a single sided D9JNL (Supertalent) Kit too and it didnt like it either.
They only memory this boards likes is imo D9GTS.
I spend nights on the P5Q3 and never got over FSB 544 and DDR3-17XX. What a pain in the a**.
Got a P5E3 Premium and am reaching FSB 620 Strap 400 CPC2 and FSB600 Strap 333 CPC1 within 2 Hours of playing.
On the P5E3 Premium these run with DDR3-2000 CL9 with just 2,01 VDimm. (Cellshock D9GTR)
The only decent P45 & DDR3 Board i know off remains the EP45T Extreme.
Made a quick build. WORKED ON FIRST BOOT. Excellent Motherboard.
Depends where u want to go. For a Quad it is ok.
For Dual Core and > DDR3-1800 without D9GTS it is not good.
The thing i liked most about it was it is feature-rich and the chipset cooling is good.
If you dont own D9GTS and want to get a Dual Core FSB 550 or more and still have dual channel memory it is a bad choice.
Depends on where you want to go?You can say that about every motherboard. Come on, like as if it hasn't been massacred enough on on the web...
onboard Audio SNR is good, Wi-Fi performance is great...
initial testing: E8500 @ 3999 8x500 8-7-6-21

hi guys, i just tried out with my new settings, so far so good all suggestions are welcomed :)
most of settings in bios are on auto.
cpu pll 1.6
nb 1.44
ram 2.02
Try this.
500 x 9x (4.5)
Vcore: 1.3875(Bios)
cpu pll : 1.56
ram: 1.96
nb: 1.30
sb: 1.4
fsb: 1.36(if that doesn't work, then go for 1.40)
Now, for memory, use 7-7-7-18 timings and choose 1668 I think. or whatever is closest.
I am running this currently and have not had any issues. Actually, in Bios my Vcore is 1.35. Start at 1.3875 and adjust up or down as needed.
I was able to get 10980 MB/s read in everest with that.
I'm not sure what your cooling is, but that may slow you down a bit. I am running on water but to be honest, my Q9550 running the same volts on my other PC with the same MB is producing similar heat and that is with a Xigmatek S-1283
I tried 450 x 10x with memory running at 1800MHZ 8-8-8-21 2.04V and it performed worse(Everest) than the first set up I gave you.
Let me know how it turns out.
I was wondering about this. I have been able to hit 540 FSB without much trouble, but nothing over that. I thought that was the FSB wall. I'm glad to hear I'm not crazy.
I've only been able to clock the memory to about 1800 as well. Maybe a bit more than that, but not even close to 1900 MHz. It's ok for me though. 1800 MHz is enough for now.
Thanks for the info.
thx lukee will give it a shot. i'm watercooled too
not much luck lukee ... here are my bios settings i hope more of us will be able to share their knowledge and settings .. i tried your setting and others too , didnt work out for me (i kept on getting auto restarts) but so far im happy for now compared to before and i managed to snap my bios settings ... ;) the settings i have posted works for me now and more importantly it's stable (will slowly tweak it) .. hope the next bios will be much better for us. i also managed to lower my cpu voltage cpu core now at 1.3v and temps are 1-2c lower my ambient is 28C.
Cool. If what I gave you doesn't work, increase the CPU voltage a bit. I'm going off of my memory(which may not be a good thing. lol).
when I get home tonight I'll take some pics of my bios so you can see.
Autostarts is probably due to not having enough voltage.
Are you running 433 x 10 atm?
You should be able to hit 500 FSB without any trouble. We have the same memory, CPU and MB. The temps might be a bit high for your liking, but certainly 4.5 is doable.
For your current setup, remove auto and use these numbers.
FSB Termination: 1.24
NB Voltage: 1.28
SB Voltage: 1.4 might even be able to do 1.3
CPT GTL Voltage Refernece: .067 for both of them
DRAM voltage seems a bit high for 1734. You can probably get away with 1.96. Not major, but when you have some time and everything else is stable, try lowering this a bit.
From what I gave you earlier try this. 500 x 6 and see if you can get that to boot. If you can't then it may be the memory timings. I can't remember which strap it is, but you are shooting for 1668 or so MHz @ 7-7-7-18 1.9 or 1.96V
If you can get 500 x 6 to boot, then you just need to increase CPU voltage a bit until it boots.. you can always try 1.4 and work from there.
thx alot for your help lukee will try 2moro and see what happens ... will also wait for your bios settings ... i think it's due to cpu voltage ... my target is 5ghz and 2000mhz on the ddr3's hope i'll get there some day ...
Good luck. Someone posted hitting 2000MHz with their memory, but it was with their 5th pair of sticks. The first 4 couldn't do it. I have 2 sets and haven't been able to get past 1800 MHz myself. Hopefully your memory will clock a little better.
i was thinking of trying to hit 5 GHz just for :banana::banana::banana::banana:s and giggles, but to be honest, the only thing I want is a nice 24/7 OC. I'm close to it with 500 x 9, I just have to do more tweaking, but I'm also trying to level in Warhammer online. lol
Dunno if it helps or I just lucked out and got a good p45 chip. Bios is 1103, it came with the mobo.
hi guys, i managed to snap my bios settings ... bios is 1406 and there are some very minor improvement from my previous settings, hope this helps others and awaiting some advise from the pros out there. thx in advance.
~lukee~ i tried the settings you gave me but didn't work out well for me but with settings on auto it is stable ... i'm still scratching my head over here and try to go further with my system, as for now it is my 24/7 system and running stable for now ;)
Can you run Pi 32M stable? If not, those results don't mean :banana::banana::banana::banana:.
I also got something like 7-7-7-18 cr2 @ pl8. pl8 is the minimum if you want stability. I know some here don't give a flying :banana::banana::banana::banana:. My vMem is @ 1.98. Today I'll try 7-6-5-15 @ DDR-1800 1.9v... with orthos over 12 hours. If this board can do that, I might foget about the P5E3 Premium...:ROTF:
Are you brute-forcing, using trial and error...? Do you employ any kind of methodology in your quest for more Hz... There seem to be some contradictions in your BIOS settings... Maybe you're being lied to. Some people have a problem sharing info after putting in their fair share of hours trying to figure things out, making small increments and restarting all day...
I got better Everest Scores by lowering Multiplier and inscreasing my FSB.
450 x 10 with memory @ 1800 MHz 8-8-8-18
vs
500 x 9 with memory @ 1668 MHz 7-7-7-18
500 x 9 won out so I'll try to get you some pics tonight.
I haven't had time to take pics, had a family issue last night. I'll see if I have the time tonight.
I guess it comes down to whether a person desires to help people who are inexperienced and need guidance or they rather just keep it to themselves.
There are a lot of good people on this board who will help you out.
I believe in Karma. I've had people help me out in the past, so I pass on the favor to someone else. Granted, I am a newb to OCing, but I try.
At last.. I found the screenshots :p

Corsair 1800C7 (one DIMM)
And some Q6600 testing.. :D (propably D9GTR.. :S )
http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/n.../orthos4gh.jpg
The second Orthos crashed at ~3.45.. but with 1.41V, I didn't expect more :D
racergr, did you try Super Pi Mod @ 32M?
