Victor Wang,
You can hardly call that an objective comment, it could be that the timings of your RAM are tighter with this new BIOS and 500 is a quite high FSB, so....
You call it bad because you cannot even boot @ 500fsb??Quote:

Seems to me your expectations are a tad high.
I can running stable at 500fsb with 1g*2 dualchannel 1:1 4-4-3-4 and a Conroe E6700es B1 which has a 4MB cache.Quote:

with F6E, I cannot even boot at 440fsb, don't tell me I have bad rams and other HWs ;)
This might sound like a strange question but does the DS3 have a single or dual BIOS?
cheers
OK the difference between 440 and 500 is quite a bit, but I think it is because of strap settings. Have you read the thread that goes deeper into that? After a certain speed (at least at 401) the former BIOS at least went into a looser strap and therefore the NB was capable of higher speeds. Maybe GB changed that with this new BIOS, maybe you have to set this manually now. I am quite certain it has something to do with the strap settings!!
Im now running 390x7 1 our stable with the F4 bios, and something is making a @!@!@! noise on the motherboard :confused: .
The F5/F6 biosses are rebooting all the time when I use this settings, if I let it go he will reboot all the day.... this board must go to RMA :mad: .
Emperium, is the sound hissing (sissend)? Then it supposedly are your mosfets, I think that is just not completely right (could it be coming from your PSU maybe?). If it are the Mosfets RMA your board indeed!
L16 coil (at the RAM slots) is the culprit here. It's not unusual.
Nope it is not, BUT I don't have that problem. It could be the problem here, I don't think you have to put up with it even if it doesn't cause hit problems. Hissing mainboards are just not right you know(mine doesn't so it isn't something that every of these boards suffer from).

actually Mach its not the one buy the ram.
its the PWM coils ...
you guys if you have a temp monitor that you have an extra probe for take that probe and stick it between the coil back on the PWM area for the cpu..
you wanna see hot..
ive seen my pwm area get as hot as 90c !!
i also have a Infrared Thermal Gun and it showed the same thing.
thats HOT and way too hot.
the hissing noise isnt really a good thing but it isnt necessarily a bad thing.
but in the grand scheme of things those coil packs shouldnt be hissing.
they his mostly from voltage being shoved thru them is either too high, or there is a big issue.
Lestat,
That is what I'm trying to say, so that means that the boards doesn't function as it is supposed to do.
Eperium:
So RMA it because of that...
DS3 is Single BIOSQuote:

Dude, my components are very similiar to yours, no point pulling things apart when it's down to my CPU. Some are better then others...end of.Quote:

Emperium you seriously need to jsut give up and Ebay that board and go buy something else.
the C2 boards are now in retail so go buy one.
all your doing is fighting an uphill battle.
ok i have installed F6b in my DS4 and everything is fine , i didnt gain any MHZ or dropped C but i have found that in easy tune you can only adjust CPU fan speed, with my old f5c adjusting the cpu fan speed at 50% for example applied the same %for the power fan connector underneath the last pci . SInce i have a VF900 powered from there i went back to f5c (f6b run the fan at 100% speed)
just use speedfan to adjust the fans
another bug is DS4 F6b when CPU is idle with C1E EIST enable cpu vcore is 1.216v 45C but with F5 its 1.120v 42C
and when you set intel QST you cant see MCH ICH temp like F5
today I asked from Gigabyte and them told me that they dont release any beta BIOS for DS4 and DQ6!!
I dont have your problem u sure?Quote:

No, but you'll have the peace of mind that comes from 5% more performance. :D Everytime I see someone doing that I think, "Damnit Jod...why oh why didn't you pick the 66." It hurts the ewee to know that a chip out there's technically got a better feature set than the one I own. :p:
