Changing subjects, another question, didn't saw bios chip on pictures. What is it location? Thanks again.
What were your mem settings when you did your 6.1+ on the biostar???Quote:

I have some 2x512 D9GMH that's capable of 650 with 2.4ish volts so I'm not mem limited.
If i'd venture a guess, I'd say it was the chip.
I have another chip coming to see if this is really the case.
Well, it certainly is a really good e84.Quote:

Here's 6.06ghz 1m with e84

I got as tight as PL7 4442 @ 500fsb, but it's not a fast as my p35s with these settings. I'm going to screw with some pmem tweaking and see if I can shave some time.

Ace,
Why do the CPU-Z Memory screens show Memory Type as DDR3?
Can someone run the following test on the Biostar TPower I45 motherboard and post the results? Please indicate bios version.
DPC Latency test:
http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml
Would be interested to see result's with Quadcore CPU's i.e. Q6600, Q9450, Q9550, Q9650.
Also do soundcards such as the Asus Xonar D2, Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi series work okay with this motherboard? No reason why they shoudnt just making sure.
I'm guessing previous bugs with graphics cards have now been fixed as their has been a few official bios releases since. :)
I'ts actually a bug with the latest official release of CPU-Z i.e. Version 1.46.0Quote:

Should also display the correct voltages for people using Abit IP35 series motherboards, as per the CPU-Z forums. Not sure what else it fixes.
The 6 SATA cables thats included, are they soft or are they very hard to bend?

once in a blue moon a mobo comes out that blows everything out of the water for price and overclocking ease\stabbilty,this is the 1 in 2008....
i rarely say this about any mobo minus the dfi ultra d skt 939,biostar 965pt skt 775,but this biostar i45 tpower is flawless for $145!!!!
no issues at all,easist board on the planet for cpu\ram overclocking.grab a cheap e8400\e8500 some decent d9ghm or better yet d9ghkx ram and your going to fly down the street like your on nitrous out of the box.also no mods are needed at all for sane ppl who want amazing overclocks with STABILTY for programs to run flawlessly.now insane benchmark dudes i guess will mod this im assuming to break wr,s easy(they are now)....its simply crushing $250-$300+ asus,gigabyte mobos,dfi mobos all day long.gotta love biostar always looking out for the little guy who wants to spend money on other components and not ALL on a friggin mobo.vid cards and cpus should be the price factor in a good rig,not a mobo(what happened here?).marketing,longevity,reputation made some of the other companys feel they could simply up there prices threw the years as there names got bigger,sad but true.look at asus asking prices of the last 5 boards they released,good but mostly beaten or buggy same as dfi lately.dont get me wrong asus is ok on certain models but by no means worth the money they charge these days.biostar is humble and true to the overclocker\consumer.after rd600 dying and dfi 680i lt,im done with them also.the evga sli for the win 750i sli was soooo hyped up i bought it and it was a complete dud.put this mobo in and bam,amazing.
in this thread i seen benchers and casual\gamer overclockers get whatever they want period out this board.no real bels\whistles just brute force silently smashing everything.

This is one of the stranger questions I've seen on here. :)Quote:

What ram would people reccomend for this board? i.e. 2x2GB is their any that dont seem compatable? I usually go with Corsair was thinking the 8500 Dominators.
Did you try the latest beta version of CPU-Z?Quote:
