Will do some further tests soon of course..........:p:

I'm so lost, at the moment I saw arround hundreds of times that D4 code, which means according to the manual, "memory test".
Some one here has already given me lost of time to fix that, and 'did no matched unfortunately :shocked:
I'd be so thankfull IF someone could try to help me again :up:

Thanks a lot mate ;)
Maybe someone else has met that D4 code... who knows.
I can tell that it happens under all bios that ive tried and with cheap corsair/ocz/asus ram's, also with good low speed ocz and with my actual D9GTR-mounted Cell Shock sticks.
I'm getting quite sure it is my board that sucks arround DDR and Vnb...
I continue like this and see what goes on because I ordered some 14400 G-Skill yes, so I'll be fixed when they arrive.
Bye and have fun there :up:
:D I owned Cellshock black 1800, Cellshock blue 1866, Corsair Dominator 1800 and now the G.Skill 1600 GBHZ - it seems my board fell in love with this RAM........:p:
Maybe with a different brand You have to change either PL or tRFC (88?) or RAM skew.............;)
:welcome:
trfc 88 is what I keep atm, and about the skews, not tried seriously yet. Do you think that might solve this? there are many skews setts since the new bios is out ... I'll give a try but looks very complicated to me at this time.
Also, does any body has issues with "high" (1.55v+) vNB ?
:D I run 1.45 vNB @ 500 FSB - above 500 I have to give 1.55 (550 - 580 FSB) - but my NB is under chilled water...........:p:Quote:

good news at last, the board was really dead and the store exchange it for a new one that arrives today :D
lets see how the tests goes and maybe i´ll flash to 0504 later :up:

I'm sorry to read that it "died" and glad for the ecovering of it ;)... May I ask you what happend please? Be ready for the fsb you mifgt reach with 0504 :p:Quote:

it simply died after a reboot i was not doing anything special :shrug:
for now i will not push it to the "limit" for safety reasons and other motive is because already buy 2 x 4870 :D that will be a priority tests in the next days.
but of course i´ll post results in the thread specialy ram tests with the 0504 bios to see it there is any improvement, high FSB´s for me is not very important because we dont need to use for 24\7.
:up:
Without doing anything special :eek: gosh!!
ok for the duo of HD 4780 :p: waiting to see high scores then ;)

mounted the system a few hours ago, flashed to 0504 and tried some ram tests but still cant get 1T even at default DDR1600 :shrug:
something is not right here all the HZ that have seen works with 1T, tried already camouflage settings since that the hardware is the same and no way simply reboots after windows bar appears :(
bad luck or bad sticks?
btw good results runmc :clap:
I have the same memory as Camo but I'm running at 2.10v on the ram I can't run performance level at 8 with CL7 :(

I have a q9450 that has done between 3.7-3.8 GHz on ABit IP35 Pro on air with Thermalright 120 Extreme.
I am planning on getting this x48 board along with 2 ATI 4870s since I have been happy with my Asus WS board and need the x48 chipset to get the most out of the crossfire.
Do you think I can squeeze more speed out of the CPU with this board?
Also on average, how much of an extra overclock on the quad cpu should I expect if I switch to decent watercooling?
Very nice :up: FSB 600 runs fine here but only with divider 1/1. Whats your secret :D ?Quote:

I'm trying to work these voltages down some. Nothing feels hot though.
Is there anything wrong with my mainboard ? When I set 1.61vnb and whatever other settings arround the computer doesn't boot at all.
NB heat pipe is not too hot, as it should be I think. I get 33/D9/31... codes and the ram diag led is permanently lighted on in that case.
Any idea? Thx
On my MB the max NB voltage I can set and still boot is 1.61 (I use stock NV cooler with replaced TIM and a 120 mm fan blowing on it). I think it is a heat/protection issue but don't know for sure.Quote:

Is this a quadcore exclusive issue since I see all of you Wolfdale users (and 2GB memory users) beeing happy as can be. I know Rob Halford also have this experience but is it common or isolated observations? Is it reason for RMA (I guess not since LLC Auto/Normal is following Intel spec). It ruins my OC to use LLC Normal since I have a huge V-drop.
Thx Holmer. I don't think it would be because of any heat, because I notice -even at high frequencies on FSB and ram that it is cold as should be, not more. Not sure neither. Right now I'm thinking to find the VNB reading point to try any pencil mod of it, but I never could find the place to apply the pencil :(Quote:

tested tonight @ LN2 this mobo have ColdBoot @ -105 and ColdBug @ -120 :mad::mad::mad:
bad news for the coldboot hiwa
the LLC set to performence is really a pain in the ass, have the PC 24\7 always on since friday and no problems, today i needed to restart and after 1m turned on caput reboot :down:
change it the LLC to normal and so far 100% stable again, is there any "real" explantion for this? :shrug:

Hu there,
I would like to know how I should proceed to use the NB_OV on this mobo, I don't know which pins to get connected. The manual doesn't tell... does anybody knows?
Thx
coldBoot @ -105 is not very bad but the problem is ColdBug :mad: mobo shotdown @ -120 and my QX have -145 and 8500 have -136 :mad::mad: so no want to kill my cpu :shakes: and no want to bench @ 5600Quote:

I need to be certain of that before proceeding, I hope you understand why I ask for it again.
You get only 1.57 without OV jumper? Isn't 1.9V max without a jumper?
yes, then I really must have an issue on my board...Quote:

Hi guys, I scanned through the thread and did see it but i didnt check your sigs to see, but have any off you had trouble with raptorsX on this board. I cant seem to get windows to install in raid0 with INtel, Marvel, or on a single raptor. Im installing windows as we speak on a Samsung spinpoint F1 (at the format point) but raptors a no go. I know the raptors are good, I get the blue screen that terminates windows due to virus, drive controller, bad faulty drive and suggest i do a checkdisk (Ill do after).
Any ideas.
Camo i striped the board down and mimicked yours with the Ek, thermalright, zalman.
got one raptor going... strange, running xp on it now, try to get the other. then will come the OC questions
reason i asked was some find that the P45 have problems with the raptors.
I do not have a good luck with 0504 BIOS:
with 0115, 400:800 can live 1 hour in p95-blend
with 0504, 400:800 can live several hours, but ends up with a sudden frozen death...
And with 0504 it seems that my QX9650 cannot run at FSB 333...(a quick BSOD during or after windows boot)
Could someone tell me when each divider can be selected?
Shadewither do you have load line calicration set to "auto" ? Sounds like it, got same here with 0504, set it to normal and try again.
here is a spi32M at 600FSB ram900 cas7 2.04vddr http://images4.hiboox.com/images/270...92d85dbce4.jpg and Everest BP at the same settings
http://images4.hiboox.com/images/270...26fb1191ac.jpg
Cpu-z 1.46 reads memory frequency incorrectly here :shrug: I had to open the previous to get that fixed...
Anybody else having issues running ATI 4850/4870 in crossfire on this MB: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=193370 I know he at last gave up getting it working properly. I wonder is it a general problem or an isolated one?
I still haven't heard from pmp concerning the "LLC set to Performance issue" but I sure have it still - very annoying. Now testing LLC on Normal to find out how far that will bring me - not as far as Performance I know.
Has anyone tried to flash P5E64 WS PRO to P5E64 WS EVO?
Thanks!
Is it possible to get another new bios for this mobo ??
Holmer i'm working on it. Be patient please.
ok, no worries, I'm just in a bad sequence of unpleasure you know how it goes...

I don't have these boards, but I considered them and now I am waiting for the Rampage Extreme as I hang out with a DX48BT2.
Comparing to a P5E3 Premium...I see 2 main advantages unless you are planning on using 4 video cards...
*Might be higher binned chips for WS reliability so they may be overclocking a little better on average. You have probably seen more overclock results to compare the two.
*Board Layout is much better for Crossfire.
vs...
*More Phase regulated Vdimm.. I don't know if it helps with the memory overclock on the P5E3. You probably need to check some ram overclocking results as well.
*Wifi
Don't know if those are posted already, but here it goes:
Some voltage measurement points for the P5E64 WS Evolution:
http://i37.tinypic.com/5wf9xz.jpg
Nice results here guys :up:
Over in the P5E3 Premium thread 600fsb seems to be almost the norm with the newest beta. It looks like it's the same with this one. Asus has definitely found some tweaks they are rolling out across their X48 lines. Perhaps somethings from the Rampage Extreme..
Some one try 4x1gb,particularly 4x1gb corsair 1800cl7?
@Benchzowner: Merci, Thank you for sharing thoses reading points! Also I Still have an issue going upper than 1,57 Vnb, thus no need to do the OV_NB in deed :/
I seriously don't know where that limitation comes from, but it's a no go. Even with a boot after setting everything at stock values, to test that damn vnb...
Does anybody meets the same issue as I do? (hope not for him...)
Bye
hey guys i did a search of this thread for quad more specifically qx9650 settings and turned up nothing. any of you on qx9650 with luck hitting 4.5. I can get 4.35 but probably not as stable as it should be and would like 4.5. have you seen postings for this combo or would it comparable to the asus x48 premium. thanks

Amazing to pass OCCT at 600 Fsb with an X48 mobo....
That new bios is kicking. Seems that with the release of P45, Asus found out how to make X48 clocking good 45nm cpus.
The Gigabyte X48-DQ6 and X48T-DQ6 are clocking good now with the latest beta BIOSes as well, so I'm guessing Intel updated something and the motherboard manufs integrated it into their latest BIOSes.
The fact that you can get very high FSBs even with most settings on Auto indicates that the BIOS eng's worked out the BIOS very well.
That's a little Occt, and not long enough. 3D is also possible, all of them :)
At 616: http://images4.hiboox.com/vignettes/...b7fabbeba1.jpg but didn't worked much on ram frequency there.
Btw, Is the P45 a good deal ?

Which BIOS is best for "high" fsb (445+) with a QX9650 also considering I have 2x2GB 1800 MHz RAM I want to run at around their rated speed. It turns out that my systems crashes within minutes in games (COD4, Crysis, Oblivion) when running 445x9 even though it is Prime blend stable and Memtest stable for around 18 h. However running 421x9.5 is Prime blend stabe for 24 h and runs games perfect. I use BIOS 0504. I wonder whether it is my CPU or the motherboard/BIOS that is holding me back.

*UPDATE*: Managed 9,5x426 70h Prime stable with tighter timings. Tried to tweak 9x445 settings based on response in COD4 but the settings needed for (at least short term) stability i the game will result in freezes in Prime (8 8 8 24, CMD: 2N, Ref cycle time: 88, V-NB: 1.61). I suppose it is the chipset that can not handle FSB 445+? Setting V-NB higher than 1.61 results in random freezes (I have a 120 mm fan on the stock NB heatsink and TIM replaced with MX-1). Running a 4/5 memory divider at 9x445 was not a problem meaning the CPU can handle the FSB (need more thorough testing with that to be conclusive).
pmp, do you work for Asus?
My board arrives tomorrow, will see how it goes with my E8500. I am also going to freeze it with LN2 once I get 8600 :)
My goal would be simple and sweet 10x600 32M :D
Hi there, not willing to show any hurry, but is there no new BIOS anywhere for that card? Not on asus support (GLOBAL) atm. Thx
Make sure you try two specific BIOSes, the 0115 and the 0504.Quote:

all bios considered.
I´ve have been testing this board the 2 last days. Bios 0504 is very wierd, but 0115 looks pretty fine here.
Max. Fsb until now SP32M stabel is about 590Mhz

Now I will try bios 0504 and do some mem tweak
Hi, newbie to this forum:)
I am running the P5E64WS Evo with a QX9650 and 4G of OCZ Platium DDR3-1600 @ 1333, and a pair of ATI 4850 in CF. Everything auto (including mem voltages). With BIOS 401, everything seems very stable.
Not trying to overclock. But feeling courageous and updated to BIOS 0504, system started to crash randomly, especially during HD/CDROM access, which indicates something with the SB. I had raised NB voltage to 1.41V and mem voltage to 1.7V and still random crashed with BIOS 0504.
Downgraded back to BIOS 401, everything is fine at auto (MCH @ auto, MEM @ auto) again.
What gives?:shrug:
Where'd you get 0504 from? I don't see it on ASUS's download page.

So, it is beta? Is that why it is not on ASUS site? I don't know if I should update my BIOS to 0504 since there are a few people said it is not stable. :confused:Quote:

Well, 49C isn't bad for the SB.
And of course it depends on your room temp.
If for example you've got 27C room temp then 49C @ SB is fine.
The ICH9R can work reliably up to 70C, so it's ok at 49C :)
I've been using it ( 0504 ) and had no problems at all ( I mean BIOS related issues ).
It has some stability, but under certain conditions, can't tell you which precisely. Seems it takes all or nothing, not sure actually. I can't boot with fsb at 500 and mem frequency from 800 and a bit higher BUT 600 fsb and 900 frequency for memories works well :DQuote:

Oh okay. My room temp. is ~22*C, so it is fine then. :)Quote:

Instability may be caused by LLC set to Auto since this equals the Performance setting with this BIOS and which results in random BSODs for me (and others but not all). I suggest you set the FSB to NB strap manually to 333 and the FSB manually to 333 as well . Take a look at my detailed settings posted earlier. Try upping the NB voltage a little (around 1.45) and the SB voltage to 1.2.Quote:
