It was about Xtreme Overclocking but he uses I45 & 9800gx2 unmodded.
You should try to use this card on another board for finding the problem.
That was my next check but I got it, works fine.
Please share with us what was the problem the how you solved it.Quote:

who is the maker of that card?Quote:

anyway to make that card just work with one core; like a disabling feature on the card?
I still havent figured out whats causing this.Quote:

most likely you do not have enough NB volts and/or Vcore.
what also could do that is having the wrong/incorrect value for CPU GTLREF and MCH GTLREF.
don't forget to experiment with CPU PLL voltage.
played around this evening with my tforce and got the max fsb little bit higher :D

It was just a dumb user error. I had to use the bottom card's dvi output to boot. I could have sworn it said top one in the setup guide. The GX2 cards are weird. But screaming fast!Quote:

yes sir :DQuote:

unfortunately i cant boot into windows with 10x600 or 9.5x600 :(
Intel's stock cooler :shocked:Quote:

How are the intel's heatsink+fan so good ? The heatsink is so tiny !
I took this pictrue few days ago -

Vendetta 2 and Intel stock (came with E8400).
Is the difference so negligible in performances ?
heh i think you mixed my screenies brotha :D that screenie where i did 635fsb i had multi 6 enabled :yepp: and yeah that was done with intels stock coolerQuote:

Which cpu cooling you used for the 633x9 (last picture) ?
hahah its actually 644x9 :D hahah nice to see that other people besides me needs classes :DQuote:

I still think I can find what it takes to unlock those kits and I'll be back at it with the TPower I45 once I decide on what kind of new CPU I should get for my new build.
What do you mean exactly by CPU Clock Configuration? I think my problem is more related to memory/chipset/RCOMP interaction but maybe I'm not getting the CPU to mesh properly with those parameters as well.

go to the 1st page of this thread and look at my settings for my E8500...i have updated the images that i had for 520 FSB...i now show the ones which got me to 550 FSB
Just got this board up tonight.
It's giving me major headaches, my QX6850 absolutely won't budge. Haven't gotten internet yet, so bios is stock. will a flash help here?
anyone have quad advice they'd like to share?
1st page, settings for QX9650 :D
well, yah saw that.
guess i haven't tried quite that much vnb..but other than that...
you need to crank the voltage UP!;)...if you worry over heat issues, put a fan on the NB.:up:
yeh, at 1.088v BIOS is massively undervolting NB, i know. so i guess that's where i go next.
