"Off course" am running my systems on Air, one Scythe Zipang, hopefully i will get True :)
So is it anyone that has dual-core CPU running on air.

anyone with a q9450 get above 488fsb???
If you guys don't know (I'm sure you do though :) ) there's a GTL thread on how to set them http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/....php?p=3359012
What about the NB GTL refs and the DDR ChA and ChB and NB DDR refs? How do we set those. Why the hell is it so hard to find info on these things? I hate how the motherboard manual only states what options the setting can go to and not what the thing actually does.
ddr refs are 0.5x Vdimm, offsetting those references is mainly useful to squeeze the last bit out of the sticks, or clean up a dirty signal at high frequencies. nb gtlref works the same way as cpu gtlref, it is based off Vtt but normally needs a smaller multiplier than its cpu counterpart.
Well I need to squeeze the last bit out of my sticks even though they aren't on their last bits. I've got a problem with 8GB of 2GB sticks where they won't overclock to 1130 even. Maybe a bad one out of the bunch or maybe together as 8GB they just are too much. Thanks again for the useful piece of info.
Allow the NB DDR ref and the DDR Ref ChA/B to simply scale up and down with vdimm (ie: leave them on auto), but you can increase them slightly to help clean up a dirty signal and as Mike said, squeeze the last out of them.
Have you tried using the ram skews and advancing the channels by 200 - 350ps? That should aid the ram stability and overclocking.
Alright I'll leave them on auto. I've tried ram skews but it still didn't help my stability with anything over 1066mhzQuote:

I bet you have already tried higher NB values? :shrug:Quote:

What do you mean by that exactly? if it's at 950, that's 950 performance you're seeing. Are you saying due to the higher FSB & 950 ram you get better performance than when running lower FSB and faster ram? If so that's to be expected, FSB has a large effect on bandwidth & latency.
Yeap I'm seeing 8600 Read, 10000 Write and 9900 Copy in Everest. If I run it at 1140 unstable it doesn't give that much more performance.Quote:

Isn't that a severe limitation for a supposed ROG board I mean doesn't that severely limit the performance of the video cards?? Any one have any insight about this???
I am gravely concerned that when I plug another 4870 into the second slot I am going to get 8X8 which from my understanding is NOT GOOD???
Dude, your not gonna see the difference with your eyes, only in bench's, and then its slight....:cool:
Yeah I am just about to buy another card but I wanted to follow up I see that your running 2X3870's and are you happy with your performance from the crossfire???Quote:

Yeah I wonder how it affects things in real world performance I am currently reading some reviews and it seems that this is a benefit over the P35 but not full 16X PciE capabilities like an X38 and X48 board, which for the money we paid for this board seems kind of disheartening...Quote:

Really happy with the board, just wish it had some better bandwidth with more than 2gb of memory....

This board seems to have great RAM clocking ability, I managed to get my Dominator 1250 kit to run 1200 4-4-4-12 with only 2.4V BIOS set. Another thing I like is that it doesn't overvolt VDDR by much, only about 0.01V checked with DMM.
Hello,
I've a problem. When I start my system it restarts three times and then after a short time it begins to boot. Then comes the post "A boot failure event happend on BIOS2". Does anyone know how I can solve the problem. It's very annoying to wait so long till the system is in Winodws. I hope you can help me.
I'm having problem booting P4 651 on this board, but no problem on Commando. Anyone can solve this problem?
I need som help, I've found that my tracers (new singlesided version 4*1 GB) won't do anything on my board. So wanna get some new ram preferable 2x2 GB that will do 1066 or even 1200. I can't even get my tracers stable at 1000.
Any recommendations? I don't wanna spend 1 week tweaking them just to get them stable. I just wanna put them in there and run them 1:1 with my FSB of 533 MHz. Cellshock? G. Skill? Apogee?
Oh my rig is a gamerig not much for benching.
I was thinking about:

Gambit even these cheapo Gskills do 1130mhz on the E and Dlx mobo's (450FSB - 266 strap and 1130 on the ram) - 1066 is no problem on them
I see no reason to cash out here mate

hello i'm having some problems with mi asus maximus 2 formula and mi new gtx 260.. when i shut down the pc from windows the gtx 260 fan doesn'stop!and i have to push the start button from the main to stop the vga fan ...

thanks...
What OS are you running? Bit version too.Quote:
