bios should be uploaded to the servers soon
woo hoo! new bios, cant wait! thanks cstkl1
Looks good, lets hope this sets us free in regard to the issue we have been having, its no fun being in bondage to a motherboard.:)Quote:

Bios 1104
Fix can't enter OS if use over 4GB RAM and Vista 64bit together with 2 pcs of GTX295 VGA card.
Anybody tried with disabled CPU Turbo Power Limit and a I-920, if Turbo-Multi 21 works when Vcore higher than 1,35V?
is beta or final?Quote:

anyways hmm testing the bios the whole day already
the temp limit is not there anymore
but the vcore testing soon
suppose to be final releaseQuote:

somehow i still think theres now a tdc limit
testing more
1104 Final
What exactly is this for an effect?Quote:

whatever voltage i use doesnt work with HT ON tested up to 1.52v
will test with one more proc tommorow
to see whether is this a one off case.
frust mode
a stupid dumbass in www.lowyat.net doesnt even know crap that the qpi/dram voltage card needs to be cooled for uncore 4000 to be stabled
tested so many times with passive/active cooling and even one point totally dead zone on that spot.
worst still that noobie idiot thinks uncore 4000 means core speed 4000.
btw way u also need to disable C1/TM
this is the rule according to the asus engineer.
Made no difference for me so far, Im needing a lot of vcore just to hit 4.2ghz with ht on.
I no longer have the 920 so cant compare with that unfortunately.
I will test further later when I have more time.
From the various posts I've read it's starting to sound like a PSU or maybe bad motherboard issue. If it's the PSU it's very typical to be inconsistent.Quote:

The above has been resolved in the latest 1104 BIOS.
Word to the wise. Make sure you have written down all of your OC Profiles as bios 1104 wipes them all out. Wish I knew that before hand as I had several set up. :(
yepp, the TDP Limit is gone - for me. :-)
Now i can do 21x210 (4,4GHz) Vcore 1,55 with my i7 920 and Load on all
8 cores. With Bios 1001 and lower the Multi decreases to 20x if i start
Prime95.

Shamino should give some lessons to Asus, what a "real extreme overclocking and tweaking-fun" bios should be able to ^^Quote:

but one thing is very evident
theres no asus engineer that is into overclocking
if not he would have realized all this issue.
I have exactly the same issue. If I have that option enabled or disabled Im hitting the same wall.
It could be the chip I have but I doubt it.:(

I left everything on Auto (including LLC on Auto) except for CPU voltage at 1.36250V in BIOS, QPI/DRAM at 1.35000V, DRAM at 1.65681V and the new Turbo Power Limit (or whatever is the exact name) on Enabled. You only need to disable C1/TM if you do not want any low power state transitions (C1) or if you want to run the chip past its built in safety thermal limits of 97C (TM).Quote:

Also, a lot of it depends on your temps. If you can keep the temps below 80C or even just in the low 70Cs you will be able to clock higher without issues in most cases.
On a different note, thanks cstkl1 for pushing this matter, and I guess since nobody else will (:() I will thank myself for actually providing Asus with a detailed test procedure to recreate this problem so that we can actually get a fix for it.
Thanks cstkl1 and thanks me :p: :D
