Its the amount of banks really. Anything over 4 banks seems to add a lot more stress to the NB which could be causing this issue. I have (ram in sig) and its double sided.
EDIT: Here is the link of a search within this thread for Q6600 and Q9450. You can see a few are hitting that point and past it.

I can't seem to get stable with my E8400 above 500 mhz fsb. I don't have a 1.5volt FSB voltage option. The maximum is 1.4volt with the latest P04 bios.
1.4FSB is the max most think is safe for 45nm CPU's, so no need ot push 1.5 or more ... maybe EVGA put in a fail safe setting now... secondly not many peeps run 8400's stable over 4.2 ghz mate so don't worry...maybe you got a lesser CPU, lesser board, lesser ram then some others here...
500FSB is already nice not ???
I will run mine at 450FSB with 9 multi , more than enough for daily usage...
500 mhz is nice but not good. I am trying to find out the maximum fsb of this cpu. Also I use vapochill and I think this E8400 should do 5ghz pretty easily with it. So I'd like to get the most fsb out of it or I will switch this board with something else.
Did you lower the multiplier and see what the board limitation is? I know I got 563 FSB on air with a screenshot (4.5Ghz).
Well like I said I couldn't make it stable above 500 mhz FSB. 563 mhz is nice. I wish I could have that.
Currently stuck at 1500 (375) fsb with my new E7200 :(
Set it to 1510 and it doesnt post
very wierd, since i could do 450 fsb with my old e6600
Would this board make any difference compared to my DFI Lanparty 680i LT?
I got Q9300 lying around,pisses me off since i got very well going E6600 and would like to sell the Q9300 but nobody wants to buy a CPU with 7.5 multi.
So if it would make a difference should i hold up for my Q9300 or E6600?
Im not big fan of Quadcores anyway...
bad flash? Try a reflash....
Load an older BIOS....
Very pleased with the voltages and the stability of this board. Older lot # on the CPU called for higher voltages but it's rock solid and very snappy on this board. :up::up:
For those that are interested and are a part of THF I started a thread over there that I hope "deserves" attention. Join in on the fun and discussions and if you want to add to anything that would be great too.

why is that i cant overclock my rig? after saving my custom clocks and settings (all saved) but still it seems the settings are not in effect. i clock to 3.5 3.6 3.7 but whatever settings im doing, still the screen after saving and restart of bios the settings is only 333x10, it must be 3.7 at the moment but why is it still 3.33ghz?
any suggestions?
haha, now figured out... my cpu cant run on 10 multi... but now im having 3.71ghz using 9 multi... haha, will give u some feedback later
Dude, you need to shorten that sig, seriously. its way to big. :down:
Anyway, E8400 has been fine, i noticed that after long-term usage, you can eventually lower the CPU FSB down, which i have at 1.2v now, when in the beginning it desperately wanted 1.4v CPU FSB (VTT) to stay stable.
Im happy. :up:
Does anyone know what sound drivers are used in Windows XP SP3? I have a 780i and the nForce drivers don't install sound drivers and I can't find anything for Realtek. Help!
If you didnt get the disc I'm sure you could go to realtek's website and get the drivers.
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...&GetDown=false
Then you should start looking around at manufactures website. What manufacturer do you have?
Wazzup mans, i need us..

I have an evga 780i reference board. Does anyone know which specific driver is used on the evga 780i reference board?
On my Vista x64 I'm using v1.85 audio driver but I noticed that both XP and Vista lists v1.92 as the current Audio driver.Quote:

Never used disc... always used floppy. Did it say bios update successful? Try again if it didnt.Quote:

yeah... that's not the way it supposed to flash. My inexperienced opinion is that you might not have burned to disc properly. Maybe try floppy if you have one.
It was very detailed in bios for me. It showed the progress and said bios update successful at the end.
Booting by CDROM disc it should come up with AWDFLASH screen with file to load already filed in the file to load. Hit return. You should see bios checksum verify, erasing blocks and programing block by visual pictures.Quote:

On a side note I think the only reason they say load defaults is so that you aren't flashing on an unstable system.
Hello,
may be problems with my single XFX 8800gts (stock cooled) if I put an EK-SB6 waterblock on the mcp of my XFX 780i?
Thanks in advance :)
I wish I understood what you are saying or asking...Quote:
