2x2gb ddr2 1000 g.skill
E8400
thats what im running now, i can take it all the way to 4.5 and play games and run benchmarks, but i cant get it stable in prime. heres shots of my bios setting for 24/7 use.

Set REF Cycle Time to 55 or higher.
Up your dram volts to 2.1
set TREF to AUTO for 52.
Your fsbt may be a bit high - 1.30 should do for 500 FSB.
Set NB skew to = Normal (bios 803)
CPU core volts seem high for those clocks. What are all your temp readings?
I suggest you set AiClock Twister to stronger, for starts, moving one notch down when you fail ram-related benches.
That's all for now.
Good point, but i also use Linux :D, 0308 is one-way.Quote:

LINKY.
Sorry I haven't been around. What's the latest good BIOS for the Rampage hack?
Nice to see you aroundQuote:

How are you finding the SSD's? I have been thinking on investing in them for an OS drive.
You can check out my benchmarks HERE. I just installed them (RAID-0) today. So far, they are performing superbly. It is so awesome to click on a program & have it immediately come up. I haven't so far run any complicated applications, but I'll keep you posted.Quote:

Cheapest I can find is a 30GB for around 225, I need a sponsor :shakes:
Looking forward to more updates, this is something I'm really interested in.
i finally water cooled my maximus se yesterday.. d-tek fusion v2 cpu block, ek s-max nb block, 355 pump, ek-ddc x-top and tripple rad.. the temps are nice at 4.0 compaired to being on air on those settings. the oc is a little tricky over 4.3 for me still. i have never messed with setting much over 4.0 on air... seams to be stable at 4.3 at 1.31 cpu and 1.22 fsbt.. right around 50 load temps. i got it to post 475x9.5 with 1.38 cpu and 1.26 fsbt but failed after about a hour of testing.. still playing.. and working on new buggy stuff... i noticed is after removing my e8500 and re installing with water cooling my temp sensors are stuck at 36 and 38.. before they would start up at around 27 29 so i think they are sticky arfter re installing it..http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/5199/img0017s.jpg
Me two. 500fsb linpack stable will try 525 next.Quote:

Try a drop or 2 more PLLQuote:

Hi. Totally unrelated, but here's a picture of the latest shuttle launch from my front lawn in Tampa. Please don't ban me for this. I've had a lot to drink & this is my first offense.

Okay. Now I deserve to be banned.
But here's the separation of the boosters:

My wife has some students over & I've been expelled from the living room. I'm extremely bored. Sorry.
***EDIT: Nikon D40X with a 70-300mm on ISO 400 with a 1 second exposure time.
NICE, that would be killer to have that as a view in your backyard!!!!
yeah that is pretty neat.. the cooliest thing i have seen all day.. did you feel it when it took off? as for the se.. i am having a little harder time getting 4.5.. i tried going up a little on pll, cpu and fsbt from where they are at the 4.38 setting in the above post.. i tried this,, cpu 1.39 and 1.40 real, fsbt 1.32 real, pll 1.64 real. just a bump or two more then before in bios.. i am wondering how much volts/heat the cpu can take.. at those settings the temps were 59-60.. still a little lower then it was on air but core #1 failed prime blend, test 2 on the second pass a couple times.. before i got the right combo for 4.3 core #0 was failing the same way... kind of wondering if i should push a little more volts or be happy with what i got.. vid on cpu is 1.25 so i think it may not be a very good clocker for volts.. at 4.3 we have been playing games since my last post pretty much non stop and it screams.. my 12 year old son says it is so smooth.. he's pro at ut2k4, been playing it since he was about 7.. pwn's me.. i have to turn off crossfire in that game and just run one hd4870 because the screen is all tore up when running both.. i am pretty happy with 4.3 but still wondering a little because i have never even been here before and stable..
I ran my E8400 at 4.3 for 24/7 use, I would think that 8500 of your could do 4.4 with a little tweaking.Quote:

thanks.. i am going for it right now..
ok looks pretty good.. let it run a little over a hour.. looks like i got past my little problem in the beginning of the test.. temps went up to 61-62.. going let it run longer when i have time. here are the settings i used.. thanks for that..

Hi guys , need some help , i using E85 E0 + Maximus F X38 (VID: 1.25)
450X9
want to use this for 24/7
voltgens are safe ?? :shrug:
stable with 2hrs in Prime blend
CPU PLL worries me because droop , too much high ??

when i was at 420x9.5 on air stable this is what i used for volts with loadline calibration disabled.. vcore 1.26875 bios-1.232 real.. cpu pll 1.50 bios-1.623 real.. fsbt 1.30 bios-1.232 real.. south bridge 1.050 bios-1.088 real.. nb 1.51 bios-1.552.. that is all it needed at 4.0.. my nb volts needed that using 4x1 ram.. i couldn't run it any lower then 1.47 in bios or it would cause problems..
Hi, New bios ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/mb/so...rmula-0902.zip out today, not tried it yet...
Chris
thanks for teh info
Cory, fired up the RF yet?
Any release notes on that bios?
