My setup
http://bandwidth.se/imgs/nouser/img0728b46ca0fd6.jpg
First quick result : QX9650 490x9=4400
http://bandwidth.se/imgs/nouser/qx9650490x40ad7dda.jpg
Here's 3 hours of everest with all voltages and temps, stupid me forgot to display cpu-z, but this is also on 490x9.
http://bandwidth.se/imgs/nouser/490x9evere406f8661.jpg
Hope next bios will give fsb 500+ as i see alot on SIIE with QX9650 hit a wall at 490.
On the other hand it might off course be the cpu limit.
Very nice setup Justifire... What radiator(s) are you using with this setup? Also what 3DMARK06 scores are you getting with this setup as well..
Justfire,
can you post your bios settings for this overclock?
voltages, mem timings etc
Please?????
and what bios are you on? 507?
Very slick setup. I love it!! :clap:
Please post your voltages!
Guys am having a tough time with this board. Please refer to

Any help is really appreciated.
If you look at the screenshot theres all the voltages you need in the Everest monitor.Quote:

Very important thing !!! In bios standard mem is set on 1T, set this to 2T !!
Altough i did nothing with my memory, this setting on 1T won't let me boot over fsb420 !
Gonna look after this later on when i'm gonna play with my memory.
Cooling: I watercool the NB, keep this in mind when you see i use 1.7v on the NB, maybe it's ok with aircooling, i dunno, just keep an eye on those temps.
I don't use radiators, i use a Hailea 1500 ultra waterchiller, wich is capable of removing 790 watt of heat.
My water is 16-17 `C
Bios: yes, latest beta 507 and i hope newer beta will support FSB500+ on the QX and that it will arrive soon !
Very slow bios support on this mobo, think they have quit some bugs to fix.
Also hope they fix the temps and voltage readings/setting
Are the Everest reported voltages accurate? I ask cause they're not for me. If it wouldnt be too much trouble, could you post your bios entered values?
thanks
I bet the northbridge voltage is the key.... I have used all of your volatages and I get stuck at about 460fsb but I havnt cranked the NB up yet until I have my water loop connected. Thanks for the update, I'll try the 2T setting as well.
My code is missing too....wtf?Quote:

In other news, my problems with my board seems to be RAM related. I am getting memtest errors as I go over 360 FSB in sync, put in a RMA request @ newegg and am gonna return the RAM(lost 15% in restocking :mad: ). The 4 GB OCZ EB platinum that I ordered from mwave will get here tomorrow. Hope I will have better luck with this RAM than I had with my 2GB OCZ sticks. Thanks for all those who took time off to respond to my whining.
I sent back mobo to Asus, but I will try again with S2II Extreme.Quote:

and commented on the SPP temp values compared to your BIOS readings. Hopefully you'll find that the Everest 4.50.1347 Beta reading are closer to your BIOS values.
Argh!!! It gets worse.Now windows hangs instantly after boot. Has anybody come acroos this!!!!

It's quite possible I might have gotten a dud in the first place. Also, am suspecting that my mobo ate my RAM(much like the earlier striker). When I first tested it with memtest @ default 333 FSB(1333 QDR) unliked with the RAM @ the rated 1600 7-7-7-20 1T i got 3 good passes. Now,memtest is giving errors @ the same setting.
As a last ditch effort, I will have to try the 0508 BIOS and see what happens. I already got the RMA # for the RAM from newegg.
0508 Is a no go on my board. It complains about the id not being compatible with the existing bios or something like that. I guess it's RMA time. Never dealt with NCIX for an RMA. Actually SIIE was my first purchase from them.Hope the RMA goes smooth for a replacement from NICX.
I've got a similar problem with my P5K Deluxe, but after updating BIOS it wouldn't even POST, pretty lucky with the 30 day return policy :)
i use dos flash and it works. :)Quote:

Have you flashed to 0511, justfire? any thoughts on the bios? Does it require an awdflash or can a person use ezflash? Thanks for using RS ;)
i have flashed bios 0511 and found no changes.Quote:
