Someone could put SS with 400FSB@DDR1200 orthos blend.

Any word on a 5 series BIOS for P5K Deluxe?
No word yet... 0311 is still the best bios for me right now but my focus is on max memory oc'/performance
I can't get into the BIOS.:mad: I'm hitting the Del key during the boot process but I get a 'No keyboard detected' message. That message is correct: none of the keys are detected. My Memtest86+ v1.70 CD in my DVD drive and it loads after the above message. The funny thing is the keyboard works while Memtest86+ is running.
Am I going to have to clear the CMOS? Any ideas?

Ok good work, already now you could put the settings applied in jumperfree.

That solved the keyboard problem. I first tried it without removing the battery and thankfully that worked.
Now that I've got back into the BIOS I'll tell you'll what I did to get me in this fix!:D
I have flashed to the 0404 bios and was trying to find my best settings using my new Crucial Ballistix PC-8500 memory. While trying to get it stable I tried a vcore of 1.45v but under full load the cpu temp went to 70c and the cores were 81c. I quickly exited Prime95. :p:
I have a temperature sensor in the tubing going from the CPU waterblock to the tank and it was below 35c. My MB temp was around 30c. I'm asking myself why isn't the CPU getting cooled down. This only happened when I raised vcore. Putting off the obvious of reinstalling the waterblock and possibly lapping my CPU I decided to see if any of the BIOSs setting affected the CPU temperature. That's when I got into this fix.
I can tell you that PECI disabled raised my cpu temperature around 10c. Also with Transaction Booster enabled I couldn't boot: had to use F1 to get back into the BIOS. Finally I enabled CPU TM Function. That was a bad idea. Leave CPU TM Function disabled.
It looks like I'll need to solve this CPU temperature / vcore issue if I'm going to use higher vcore.
hey eva since your the RAM-expert, and I am really new to Intel just got my rig for 5 days, looking the specs of my ram settings is there any improvement, by upping the FSB and lower the mulitplier , the divider : 16:10 , reason why i stay @ 3ghz range is that i got still the stock cooler, otherwise it will be to hot!, what i got now 382fsb @1222mhz 5-5-5-15 @ 2.3v 4-30-12-4-4, is about the tightest i can get I had @ 1203mhz @ 5-5-5-12 stable tho didnt tweaked the sub timing of it. Could u maybe give me some advice @ what fsb/ timings /speed i could aim for better performance?
mc2k have a go at 7x433FSB 4:5 with ram @541mhz 4-4-4-5/9 3-30-3-3-8 if they can hit those clocks should be nice and fast.. don't be afraid to try 541mhz 5-4-4-9 in order to keep vdimm low and sub timings tight.
Since I can't remember having such a high CPU temperature with a vcore of 1.45v using the 0311 BIOS, I've decided to go back and check it. After I flashed 0311 I reloaded my default settings. When I booted I kept getting the checksum error and to boot with F1 message. I finally manually entered my defaults and now the checksum error is gone.
eva a big Thanks will defo try will feetback with everest results :D :up:
*edit eva for the subtimings u posted is it this follow? tWR -tRFC -tWTR -tRRD - tRTP and for the NBv: to 1.4? and how much for the FSB Therni volts? would 1.3v do? @ that fsb , I got till 382 fsb so far stable with just 1.2 fsbv and 1.25 for the NB. thnx and @ 433fsb with probbly NB 1.4v , would it be safe without a fan directly blowing @ it, but i got a fan mounted @ the ram: [img] http://img224.imageshack.us/my.php?i...img0756di7.jpg [/img] , it covers a small bit of the NB 2, and i got 4 intake fans @ sidepanel of my evo, would that be good? or should i mount a fan for that speed on the NB?
i'm currently using the thermalright ultra-120 extreme w/ 60cfm fan and with the p5k deluxe, no mods done.
i dont intend to add any extra fans because i'm building a silent pc. can anyone advise me on whether 400 - 450fsb fully passive nb cooling is safe? :confused: kinda worried because the ultra-120 extreme blows air through and not down at the board. i'm using an antec p180 case with a 75cfm intake, and also another of the same 75cfm fan as exhaust. thanks!
450FSB with NB 1.4v should be fine.. i'd have a fan over passive NB and cpu socket area regardless ;)
as for sub timings i always quote them in order of bios listing from top to bottom ;)
Which are the main differences for the deluxe?
does the 0404 BIOS solve the 4:5 divider "PCIE freq cannot lock to exactly 100MHz" issue? (cant seem to find any updates within the posts to this)
That varies with build no one i know with a quad can run with 1 or 0. Works for me though:D, but i have the problem with 0404.Quote:
But I with the Transaction Booster enabled and the remaining equal values, to motherborad does not do the boot.
Gosh, 35 pages. Could someone sum up this board for me, nice and quickly? Pros, cons, overall conclusion would be nice. Is this the P35 board to get?
No real cons; It's a great board. The "Heatsink2" isn't attached the best, but it hasn't caused any failures that I (we?) know of, overclocking included. The 0311 bios seems to be the best performance wise still, and it overclocks great even with all 4 DIMMS populated. (see sig) It's got a bios feature (voltage damper) that arguablably negates the need for a VDroop mod, which is a real blessing on an Asus board.
I guess I can think of one con; it's $225 while competing boards aren't quite as expensive, but I think it's worth it....
Don't take my word for it tho, I already bought it so I'm a bit biased. :D
Two more cons:
1. high power consumption
2. RAID issues (there is a thread around here somewhere)
