So still HTT limited?
Yeah it was a total different ballgame clocking the K8s on the Giga, dinos. A dream infact.
Tried all voltages, I think the NB is possibly the "issue"
oke took while to activate had 1 question to amd phenom
are you having cool'n quite turned on.
as your system is booting @ 1200 mhz or is it turned off
also intrested in 3dmark6 score.
with previous cpu and ofc phenom.
i'm likely to upg to phenom asswell
got same mobo.

Just a confirmation for you, I get that exact same problem with AMD Overdrive and Vista, "Can't detect RD700 chipset" , I even downloaded the earlier version to try in case it had been updated to only run on 700 chipset, but still no luck.....
The 3dmark06 score seems to suggest that SLI is enabled for you, I was getting 12800 score with my 6400+ @ 3520MHz and 2 x 8800GTS 320MB Oc'd @ 612/900 in SLI and Vista..... so your 12400 score with the Phenom at 2640Mhz is about the score I was expecting to see.... so I'll definitely mention it in any reply to ASUS once they get back to me......so big thank you for that... just wish this BIOS for the M2N32-SLI was working as well as the one for the M2N-SLI... I'm itching to get on with this Phenom, and its killing me to be forced to have to wait for ASUS to get their act together, I've had this Phenom for 5 days now, and I can't do anything with it, or my PC....going to give it another week then, my 6400+ is going back in....... damned ASUS...
Very nice... :cool:
I had one very bad issue when I updated my Asus Crosshair to latest BIOS (that one who supports Phenom) :yepp:
Then I could only have HTT 1x, the same frequency as my FSB :eek:
ONLY 1X HTT!! and I lost 20FPS in 3DMark just like that... :up:
Then I reflashed to an earlier BIOS... and my Crosshair JUST DIED... :clap:
I have sent it on RMA and asking for Gigabyte GA-MA790FX-DQ6, AMD 790FX... :yepp:
I will write a review when I get my new motherboard...
Have a good time! ;)
I doubt you get a new mobo if you crapped the mobo by flashing bios...Though if it froze during the bios update then it's possible to RMA it.
Hi AMD-Phenom or others, this is the compare url for my Phenom, http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=3856610 you can see the problems I mean with the graphics performance....Quote:

Yeaa, I know... in fact if they knew that I was flashing they wouldn´t give me a new board...Quote:

I told them it just died... and I think they are to stupid to figure it out...
Have a nice day... :ROTF:

As far as I know 2.75Ghz is the best that AMD-Phenom has gotten but not stable, and I beleive thats using the stock voltage...... but maybe he can let us know if hes tried a voltage increase or not....
It seems that the general consensus of opinion is that the OC is being limited by the NB and HTT...... but I think it would be fair to say that BIOS support is limited - at the moment at least - and this could be holding things back, maybe once mobo manufacturers catch up with things and get some improved BIOS' available then more/better options will be avaiable for overclocking...
Sorry can't settle the discussions once and for all for you, but hope it gives you a little more information to go on....
WPCREDIT works on DQ6

Hi if your asking if 3.6Ghz is a possible OC of the 9500, speaking for myself I would say theres no chance of it...!!!! Thats not to say that later revisions of the Phenom won't though..... !!! I think 3.0GHz for the 9500 will probably be easily within reach, once BIOS issues are taken care of.... but its still very early days and a lot more info is needed before sayng anything for certain...Quote:

Ok. I re-installed XP and started afresh. Cpuz now reports vcore more accurately than before but AMD-OD now doesn't update cpu/mem/htt speeds in the gui...settings apply but are shown incorrectly.
XPpro sp2, Phenom driver, chipset drivers (v9.19), then AMD-OD and finally Ai booster.
WPcredit works np, but NB speed would appear to NOT be the problem on this mobo.
If I set x10 NB multi with WPcredit then x11 is displayed in AMD-OD and memory pane of cpuz 1.42.
I also set it to x8 but still FSB lock up at 250 :(
I managed to catch a 2750mhz part-screenie with x11 NB runing same speed as cpu :)
In regards to vcore and NB voltage increases I've tried upto 1.55v with upto 1.50v to the NB with no effect whatsoever.
The relaxed memory timings in these screenies were in an effort to rule out memory dividers and/or timings with again zero effect.
edit.....
BIG thanx to tic-tac for the heads up on wpcrcedit :up:
Could you explore any performance boosts due the higher NB frequencies?
No, on this mobo AMD-OD cannot increase the voltages. I can adjust them via Ai booster or in th bios np. I'd hardly call phenom a flop due to an incompatibility issue with a gui, that's a little too xtreme :p:Quote:

I wouldn't say it is a flop. Heck these overclocks are on boards that apparently don't have the best of support for this CPU.Quote:

Phenom is really crap, my max OC is 2450MHz ... poor AMD in end of their life ... performance is flaky ... and stupid MOFO with new nick can say anything ... Phenom is totall crap ...
will report this in a sec omg :)Quote:
