Both problems resolved instantly using Corsair RAM. I'm not recommending Corsair RAM as I believe my 8500 Dominator sucks. It's just that you asked if anyone had tried the combination of P5K-E/Wifi with Crucial and I felt I should tell you of my experience.
RAM was never over-volted - run at voltage recommended on the packaging.
Both motherboards are operating fine.
Im using my p5k and crucial ballistix. They OC slightly lower than avg on the board - 500mhz 5-5-5-8-8-25-7-7-7/2T at 2.2v.
I'm really considering purchasing this motherboard for my next build. I believe I will get the P5k-e version since I don't need wifi and like the idea of having the extra heat sink. I'm debating whether or not to get this board of the Abit ip35 pro. I've heard the Abit IP35 Pro will not over clock well Quads well because of the 4 phase power design and I believe the Asus P5k-e has and 8 Phase. This leaves me leaning more towards Asus.
Currently I have a e6600 that is running at 3.6ghz at 1.5v (9x400) on my DFI p965-s. Right now I love my setup but will need more CPU power in the future (45nm penym). I plan on giving the DFI board to my fiancee.
Is the Asus P5k-e better then the P5k-e wifi in terms of overclocking? Does the p5k-e out perform the Abit IP35 Pro? I seem to be having a hard time finding comparable reviews between the two.
I`m using Crucial Ballistix on this board as well, and have had no problems so far.
Maybe its possible that pee4 just had bad sticks of ram to begin with.

This is the first time i hear this board killing ram.
yep i have set it on ac 97Quote:

It will be after XMAS when I order my parts, Ive pretty much decided on 6400Ballistix. Just don't know which corsair psu, the 450 or the 550 non-modular. Here's my list from the Egg, any comments or suggestions are welcome. I'm also not locked into buying everything from newegg. Just gives an approx. cost total.

To be honest I have not seen a NON Wifi version of the P5KE listed in shops in Australia. Everyone here just stocks the Wifi version.Quote:

i am really confused. first time using this bios.:D
The best bios for was 0602 but it doesnt play well with my e8500es so i had to update to the latest 0902 i think... which doesnt Oc as well..
i am using 0602..
has the least vdroop if i compare to the other...
shark could you tell me what settings should i use to get 3.6 ghz on my e6750...
i was running 3.6 ghz on abit as well with no problem for 24/7
Yes 0602 does not support 45nm cpu's.Quote:

what should i do to get rid of this
Hi all!
This is my first post, in this legendary forum....
At August, i did buy this Board, Wi-Fi Edition + Q6600 G0+ Watercooled.
3400MHZ, + 1.4Vcore + 1:1FSB day-to-day, 24 hours no issues.
The ram is Mushkin 8500 2G
Problems:
1:1, above 444/445 of FSB.
No matter what, i do have some problems, reaching more than this value, no matter Vcore, Vdim, relaxed timmings, i pumped on it etc.etc..
I did get once 470 FSB, but i did loose 2 cores someone on the way...
Last, week, after reach 4G, and several boots, i did "kill" the Board:rofl:
How?
Before i had Pencil Droop trick.
Several boots, always warning about Vcore error problems.
Than it was asking, for a new Bios....
Finally, when i try 500X8, the Bios, never recory anymore, and i did send it RMA to Belium...
Except that, i like the Board, even it miss some plus:
more than 1.7 Vcore......for instance.
My previous system;:
Abit NFS 2.0, D Manta Ray XT Bios + AMD 2500 M
3 years at @2600MHZ, 24 hours always ON, with some serious abuses from my side:clap:
They don`t build them, like in the old times:rofl: :rofl:
Waiting RMA........:shrug:
0602 works great on qx9650 and much better than new bios.. but its got some issues with e8500...Quote:

Booting from SATA worked for me with XP so it should be ok with Vista as well.Quote:

In Bios im using IDE.
The 2 drivers, im using IDE cables.
All HD are Sata.

In otherwords I want to not have to use an IDE DVD drive, I want my IDE port to be connected to 2 WD205Gig IDE HD's.
And I'll be using 1 WD Raptor for my OS.
to the both of you on which SATA ports do you recommend me connecting my SATA DVD-RW drive and my WD Raptor, the Raptor will be in single mode not RAID.
Thank you in advance for your answers :)
Sata DVD/RW works fine with the board (i use Nec 7191).
I'm considering getting this board and doing away with my p5wdh. I know i'm getting a p35 board, but can't decide which one yet. Has anyone tried this board yet with the a-data 800 extreme ram that newegg is selling? The limitations on the p5w aren't allowing me to see what this ram and my e6600 can really do. Do you guys think this would be a good board for me and if not please let me know your thoughts on other boards. Thanks!
My P5K-E Wifi/Ap will arrive on Monday after my P5B Deluxe died. Still don't know why, I can't see anything fried on it. No post, no beep even with no cpu installed. Tried various solutions, no luck.
Anyway, I've got one question about this new board.
How is it with the strap? Does it have any strap issues like the P965 chipest? I remember seeing in a review some BIOS screenshots with and option which had something to do with strap, but I'm not sure.
blowed mosfet any sample this forum ? any link ?
