Thanks Dee,
My RAM should be OK at 2.0. Let try that. So I should lower FSB Ter volt, SB but up the NB a little bit, right?

I belive that ket doesnt have rights to make money whit this great project
OK, after play around with voltage setting, I still cannot make it stable @4.0. It's surprise me because I can get in windows @4.0 easy but cannot make it stable? Can someone help me this? Thanks
If i am right you have Q9550? If its C1 you should really forget 4Ghz at start already! On E0 it is possible... easily on some situations. But on C1 and high vid it is pretty hard. Try get 3.6-3.8Ghz stable that would be best way to go. :up:Quote:

I don't want to try higher 1.35 though. Anything but below 1.35 it boot very well. Otherwise do you know what is safe VTT and NB volt for this chip. How about GTL CPU and Skews. People said it may help stable???
Oh there is many view about safe volt values, even on these forums ;)
On intels papers max Cpu voltage aka vcore is at 1.36! as 45nm technic you dont need high voltages for 20-35% overclocks!
example volts that i use for 3.6Ghz on my Q9550 (C1) and P5Q-E mb
in bios i have
Cpu voltage: 1.27 whit LLC (Loadline calibration) enabled CPU-Z shows 1.25 LOAD! Just test what voltage your chip needs for your clock, as you get to windows 4.1Ghz and 1.34 i belive that you can do lot of lower volts that 3.6 wich i use!
vPLL: 1.54
NB VOLT: 1.18
VTT: 1.14
vDIMM 1.8 (my memories stock voltage)
vSB: 1.1
vSATA 1.5
GTL's i have left auto becouse in my opinion those are only needed on high-end overclocks! And those are pretty hard to tweak none can say what is the "sweetspot" just for your gear!
Just keep tweaking and experimenting. You'll find the sweet spot. I can only speak for myself as regards SB voltage, and as I said, mine doesn't need an increase at all.Quote:

Hello,
I was wondering which is the best board out of the Asus P5Q series? I will be using a E8500 with 2 x 1gb sticks of Crucial PC-8500, with Windows Vista Ultimate. I will be using a Tuniq Tower with it as well and would like to know if there will be any issue's with it. Thanks
Hi Ket, nice to see you back. I thought that you forgot this thread. Thanks again for a nice mBIOSes. Did you see my early post about strap 400? It's strange, strap 333 wasn't nice with me like 400. It harder to boot with 333 (@high OC) than 400. After played for a day I figured out that my Q9550 doesn't like Volt! It's hard to boot and hard to be stable at high Volt than low Volt. My setting as below, had been play with Voltage all day with no luck I started touch GTL and skew and wooot it gave nicer result.
My setting are:
FSB 471x8.5
FSB Strap 400 (333 not as good as 400)
RAM-CPU 1:1
PCIE : 102
Vcore 1.337
CPU GTL: 0.65x
CPU PLL : 1.56
FSN Term : 1.30
DRAM : 2.04
NB : 1.28
SB : 1.10
CPU Clock skew : 200ps
NB clock skew : 200ps
Prime: @32min there is 1 core fail. The other 3 cores OK until I stop (1hr)
Before this I did a lot higher volt for every setting but after 10min prime 1 or 2 core fail.
Do you have any susgestion since IDK what to change now to make it more stable.
Thanks
PS. when will we see the m1406 for P5Q pro Ket? It's official now.
Hi Lu(ky,
I love my P5Q pro and I susgest you to get it. Why?
1. With Ket's m1307 BIOS it have the MEM table of higher end board. I believe it with pass FSB 500 easy. My Q9550 boot @ 480 just fine (I did try higher though because I want to stable it @471 now before I think of bigger number).
2. E8500's multiplier is 9.5, Awsome!
3. It's lack 16 phase power but you won need it for the E8500 IMO.
4. About half price of its big brothers.
there is a high chance of doing that! :shakes:Quote:

Luckly this P5Q-E board got 2x bios chip, And P5Q PRO doesnt have :down:
As care says, please don't try flashing to a diff model BIOS, you will cause the board to go into meltdown :p: The TPower arrived a few mins ago so later today I will be doing some building and then a mad dash to catch up on about 6-7 mBIOSes releases, so get ready to go on standby people :D
You know difference between the chip and backup bios ?
Its really hard to run bios from usb if your computer doesnt even detect vga? Or is it possible :eek: :confused:Quote:

I could try that on my wrecked chip !
Interesting. I am curious to see how this turns out. Candy man I say overclock that thing until it pops :up:. :p:
Crashfree BIOS 3 = EPIC FAIL. The board wouldn't re-flash the chip on my Pro for :banana::banana::banana::banana:s or giggles, didn't matter if I was using a USB stick or CD.
