guys, is there a guide for the skews? i really don't understand what they do ... :)
thanks cryptik, yeah, i have "new" ballistix dimms. i was running a 4x1 set with really sad stabillity problems, removed 2 dimms and things got a bit better. thinking about getting a 2x2 set tomorrow, any suggestions?
setting my vFSB=1.2 and vNB=1.3 with the nGTL=auto results in an instant fail with prime95. vFSB=1.275, vNB=1.35, nGTL=-10 will run prime for about 45min before failing.
Try advancing the ram skews between 50 & 300ps on all channels.
Also try different combinations of vFSB/vNB/NB GTL Ref
Heres my OC on my e8400, im rock solid @ 4264 mhz on air, ill post an update when i get my settings for my SS as well as a guide on insulating a M2F as i have a feeling it is going to be a bugger.

Currently running with 2 1xGB sticks of corsair dominator cas5 ddr2-1066, these settings run @ a 1:1 ratio. Validation is in my Sig.

EDIT: Got pics of my current cooling setup, 60mm fan is setup on a NB temp sensor currently running @ about 2k rpm's barely audible maxxes @ 6600rpm lol. Also got a pic and how to for my lcd poster mod on the stacker 830 and im sure it can be adapted to other cases as well that use modular bay covers.

Any questions just shoot me a PM
well done vab ;)
ps. someone for the skews? :p
guys just another trouble here :)
i've a Raptor HDD over it i've installed my OS (Win XP PRO) i've attached this this into the Silicon Sata Port and all runs correctly ... but i'm so curious so i've changed the sata port from the black to a 'normal' blue, and it comes out a strange thing, when the mobo/system starts it doesn't recognize any disk installed into my system ... but obviously i can enter in windows normally ...
why this happens? it's really weird . ..
set your SATA in bios to IDE, Your options are AHCI, RAID or IDEQuote:

nice rig vab, almost identical to mine :up: thanks for the tip on the lcd poster
did you replace the bottom vent with carpet? :p:
i'm sure my system is being held back by the ram, got a dominator 2x2 kit in the mail.

thx mate :)Quote:

Play around with them and see if it has any benefits on stability. I leave mine on auto (neutral) as advancing or delaying has no benefit for me.
Hi
I am looking for mobo that can be used 600MHz FSB for 24/7 in use. Does anyone have knowledge is that possible with this mobo
600mhz fsb for 24/7 use? :hm:Quote:

Some peeps have no clue of hardwarelimits... +500 FSB is nice, 600FSB requires a good CPU, will create way too much heat, big stress on NB and RAM too... 500-530 is doable, more is a heaven sent...
I can run some 600FSB benchies (short duration on the P5Q Dlx) but in 3d it caps out and to get 32MB pi stable was already a nitemare for my CPU/Mobo combo.. let alone of running this 24/7...
ops i haven't saw this post ... :)Quote:

orthos 7h

Am I too ambitious for dreaming 600MHz FSB for 24/7 use
If Maximus II Formula isnīt that mobo so what is better? I have so much problems with TPower I45 that i am loosing my nervers with this mobo
You might have a shot with the Gigabyte UD3 but 600FSB 24/7 will be hard on your hardware , there is a thread here for the Gigabyte board you could ask in there, I'm not certain but I thought guys were hitting 600+ FSB but that was for benching iircQuote:

agreed
Bios 1702 is on the FTP.

Asus are IDIOTS, the Multi is still Stuck. :mad:
damn, i got all excited for a second there....:shakes:
So do I ...hope the next will be better
Just doin' 500 for 24/7 ;) 533/566x9 is hot in aircooling : gat to wait water :D

A question bout CrossFire : why GPU-Z don't displays me that it's enable, but just availabble ??
There's a Saphhire HD4870 and a Giga HD4850 1gb on my mobo...thx
Eeky NoX
Good job. But you can`t make it stable with your air cooling. Make 500x8. It is the best setup for 24\7 using.
lol no i took the bottom vent out to test and see if my SS would indeed work like i thought it would... and it does. cant wait to get that bad boy fired up :DQuote:
