Had my HT up in "sync" with my NB for a while (around 2400-2450 MHz) with no problem other than heat. Lowered down to 2000 to shave off a couple of degrees, while keeping NB at 2400+. It should work! (I imagine(?) that 2400/2400 "felt" :rolleyes: smoother than 2000/2400, but I am probably wrong...)Quote:

just out of curiousity what BIOS are you using?Quote:

BIOS 0701 should be out shortly....
You're such a tease...;)Quote:

I didnt have any problems with 0602, however my most stable overclock was with 0403, for me all the way up to 0602 my favorite was 0403. give it a shot and see.Quote:

For High overclock , I suggest you pay extra and get M3A79-T DELUXEQuote:

I am however struggling to get 4 x 1GB Crucial Ballistix Tracers DDR1066 stable, even at 800mhz, unganged and ganged 2T it will be stable for a couple of minutes, and sometimes even for almost an hour AOD stbility test.
My setup is:
Phenom 9950
Asus M3A79-T Deluxe
4 x 1GB Crucial Ballistix Tracers
EVGA GTX280 (640 core, 1391 shader, 1250 memory)
Antec Trio 650Watt PSU.
Any ideas how I could get 4 x 1GB ram stable on this setup?
With 2 sticks and same settings I can run stability tests for an hour without any problems...
I am having the same problemQuote:

BTW , my 9950BE seems don't like to run anything higher than 3.2GHz even with 1.475V
Maybe I should just wait for Phenom II 940 later
I used to run 4x 1GB D9GMH RAM (Crucial Ballistix & Team Xtreme Mixed) on the board , it "NEVER" boot well when I set DDR2-1066 mode @ BIOSQuote:

My Ballistix DDR2-800 CL4 (SPD listed 2.2V) died last month , RMAed and the new pair (with 2.0V listed at SPD ) doesn't like anything higher than DDR2-1100:shrug:
Sorry to ask , I would like to push my NB speed higher ( currently only works 2GHz )
Should I push the NB Voltage to 1.3V or I should change other options in BIOS to get it work
Thank you
hi there, I was able to run a NB of 2400 Mhz with the voltage on auto. Manually I had it as low as 1.16v.Quote:

Have you try DDR2-800 CL5-5-5-18 @ 1.8V ?
Ok I will give it a try at "Auto"Quote:

602 bios rev.
Anyone know any good passive Mosfet coolers for this mobo?
I've been looking around and neither the Enzotech or Thermalright ones fit :(
I also don't want to water cool them as it means setting up a second loop :/
That's odd :confused::confused:Quote:

hi there, this thermalright says it fits on the 790FX, check it out:Quote:

However I notice that the cooler I linked you too the longest one is 70mm, so I dont know what to tell you, it says its compatible with the ASUS 790FX

If you follow the link from performance pcs to the thermalright one.
It only has two 790FX boards listed and thats only for the Northbridge, it shows the mosfets are non compatible.
I'm just worried I just spend 180 euro just to have Asus release a new motherboard the same time as PH2 launches :(
I just wouldn't worry about it for now, dont wanna spend the money on something that does not fit.Quote:

Man I had a busy past 2 days. Any who, I was playing with my news toys and look at this screen shot...anyone guess......:p:
