i have seen those but costs quite a bit, would like to consider some air cooling, i have found heatsinks for mosfet, northbridge,southbridge and onlymissing how to find a heatsinks for the annoying sli chipset since it only got one mounting holes
i would like the have the setup as molotov
but how
http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c2...k/100_3814.jpg
since we all know striker formula board only got one mounting hole at the sli chipset
i got a reply from asus with bad news :(
Dear Valued ASUS Customer!
Removing the stock cooler voids the warranty.
Best Regards,
ASUS TMSS Support
...and you have to cool it. i cooked one ns-200 and came up with my own air cooled solution. check my profile album for ideas.Quote:

very impressive. CAn i somehow buy a same cooler solution from you please. I cant rma it since in nordic asus warranty i already voided my warranty by removing my stock cooler. even if i dont tell them that they notice with the new thermal compound
i do not have tool to customized :(
can i like send you the backplate of the sb and have you customize it for me. Ill pay u for the work pleae
No need to send it to me. Heat it up, pry it apart, clean it up. The heatsinks are for a videocard and stick on. The fan is from ThermalTake.
Just use the plate and use it between the chips and what you already have? It will conduct the heat well enough. Add the heatsinks (any stick on type) for added protection.
I've RMA'd with a replaced stock cooler. They never said a thing.
well the warranty policy said otherwise. only authorized asus personnel can remove the heatsink
Anyway im wondering i want to get this heatsink Xigmatek Porter for northbridge and wondering if tha twill fit with my computer

Someone on the Asus forum just bought a Xigmatec Porter for his Striker II Formula, he says it fit OK. :up:
question guys, do I need to fix my FSB to get a stable 3.6ghz
I followed this setting http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/3743/asiibiosms1.jpg (pics from asp6000)
the problem is my OS freeze and sometimes it didnt continue to but to winxp, can someone help me on the setting. I'm E8400. thanks
Most people get better results by manually setting the BIOS.
dear guys..having bit of prob attaining 4.8ghz..
keeps bsod after loading of windows vista (green bar moving)
wondering if anyone has exp on this..can help mi out..
Ram: 2.20V
1.2V HT: 1.23V
NB: 1.52V
SB: 1.5V
PLL: 1.52V
VTT: 1.32V

Mem OC expert.
CPU @ 4.8 Ghz (400 x 12): 1.69375V
running @ 4.6 Ghz (400 x 11.5): 1.61875V benchmark stable..
WOW being able to achieve 4.6 on a quad is a pretty big achievement there and I'd be happy with that full stop. I wish my quaddie would do that. Ive ran my quad at 4.2 on air with 1.48v and refuse to go any higher, props to you for going further on this voltage crazy motherboard.
heya thnx..Quote:

i am definitely not using them for 24/7
4.6 @ 1.61875v gives out too much heat..
4.4ghz is a more probable scenario..
can anyone give any tips on 4.8ghz..
Hey guys I just picked one of these boards up for $65 and i wanted to know what i should be twekaing to get my E6600 to 3.2Ghz. I didnt need any higher ATM.
I plan on taking bios to latest so if i could could some voltage figures that would be great.
My spec is in my sig.
i know i need my FSB @ 400 x8 to get 3.2Ghz but would it be stable on the NB? i havent installed it yet still waiting on delivery. Im currently on a GA-965P-DS4.
After reading through a fair bit of this thread it seems that the NB is super hot.
So is their any custom cooling solution to hep that other than a 80mm fan?
Hello all. I just got two of these motherboards as replacements for my now dead p5N32-E SLI Plus do to a watercooling mishap.
I read all of the pages of this thread with great interest, but is the "favorite" BIOS right now 1801? I will be using an old school Q6700 CPU and 8800GTXs sli.
I know there are more current versions, but do not want to flash those if not optimal or bugged.
Thanks.
Hi folk's this is my first post and here's my spec's
Spec's:
Coolermasrer Stacker 830

2GB corsaire value select 800mhz pc2 6400
evga 8800GTS 320mb superclocked
Asetek Liquid CPU Cooling System
when I get some dough I plan on upgrading to 1066 Ram
but my guestion [s] are
I can get 3.5 Ghz out of the E6850 with the AI center , but that's the :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: way and less than I think this will do
so does anyone here know what settings I should use to get more though the bios ?:shrug:
I'm looking to go to 4.0Ghz if possible
I'm new to this and have not messed around much in the bios but I have read alot [most all of this thread for one ] but that's all theory till you do it and instead of screwing things up I thought I'd ask you fine folk's for help or direction on this:shrug:
so if anyone can help me out on this it would be great and I'd give you lots of thanks:D
got to 3.82Ghz using setting given to "Kimofil" on this thread when I went up to 3.87Ghz it BSOD on me tried raising voltage [cpu vcore] to 1.43 still no go
any Ideas how I can hit 4.0 Ghz ??
any help would be great
Hummmm.............I've had post up a while I've P.M.'ed people here in hopes of help
and no responce any where
is this thread still active or have you fine people moved on to newer toy's to play with?
What are the settings ur using now?Quote:

I made it to 3.82Ghz with vcore at 1.43
whenI tried to go to 3.87Ghz/1720mhz fsb
it folded and BSOD so I reset Bios ansd waited till some one who knows more than me could help me [I know basicly nothing] but I learn best by doing
I was a aviation electronics tech in the Navy and Have wired houses for 20+ yr's so I'm not dumb and I know most of the terminalogy I"m just not sure as to what to change to get it to 4.0Ghz STABLE
any help would be great:confused::D
again I got a nibble then nothing
I just want some setting's help
I won't hold you responsable for damage [like I could]
can't anyone help??:confused:
Hummm..............I posted here for a few reasons
1. Striker II Formula specific forum
2. you people seemed to know your :banana::banana::banana::banana:
3. you seemed friendly and helpful
well as of now I've had one nibble but no responce as to if you could help me
is this a private club?
do I need to stand on my head a say some oath to the overclocking God ?
what is it do I stink ?
look I just want some help I'm not out to set records and steal anyones thunder I just want to see if I can hit 4.0Ghz with this piece of :banana::banana::banana::banana: board [I say that because this is the 3rd with out overclocking][and 8th over all I had 5 striker extremes all 8 in 1yr 6 months needless to say I have little respect for ASUS any more]
any way would some one help?
if not at least tell me to :banana::banana::banana::banana: off and I'll look elsewhere fo help
So i got me a gtx 295. installed it and installed the drivers and shortly after pc crashed. then on reboot it wouldnt make it to windows it would get a bootmgr is missing. i reserched on my laptop and there seems to be no idea what can or does cause this. others have had it in the past but not related to this card or motherboard or anything of the sort. so odd thing is apon having to reinstall windows to make the issue go away. the issue came back once i installed the card again. i tried many differerent drivers from nvidia. being that not many support the card. of a few. only the 181.20 drivers dont cause the issue. i tried 181.22 & 182.05 and both still give me issues. i havent tried 182.06 and 182.08 cause i am tired of reinstalling my OS.
Now for the strange part. even the driver that works gives me problems. a problem i solved. When running windows vista basic desktop them i have odd behavior when i open some programs. screen gets all messed up. issue would not go away untill i turned on windows aero. for some reason it doesnt act up when asked to do more work. sounds dumb but it's true.
What i need to know is what is going on. The card performs like a monster on crack. it's so fast i just cant believe it. and the card stays cool. so it's not anything easy. i might have a bad card but i just dont know.
I should point out when i remove the nvidia drivers and windows is supplying the drivers i get no problems of any kind. so it has to be in my mind a driver issue.
why does it say that the 2001 bios is older than 1901 ?
http://bildr.no/thumb/363494.jpeg
I have problem with this board.
I used a while on this E7300 cpu and now sold to friend and he put Q9550 cpu
and he says its alltime freezing or blue screen.
but my E7300 cpu works stable on this.
bios 1802 and i will update to now 2001 latest.
Can someone say something why it dont like Q9550 cpu?
