Greetings all, it has been a while since I have been here.
I just fired up a new build using a Rampage II Extreme. I will be reading all through this thred over the next day.
In addition to the R-II I have an i7 920, 6 Gb Corsair Dominator GT, a GTX 285 and a pair of V-Raptors in RAID-0 powered by a Corsair HX100W.
It booted fine on the first popwer up and I have now flashed to BIOS 1104.
My initial CPU operating temp is 43 C.
Much to learn but it looks like this is the place.
ah finally somebody to compare
can u run in xmp profile for the i7 920 for the gt's??
just see whether it can pass memtest86+
Man, I want those sticks :p I can't get them anywhere though, nobody stocks them here. Not planning to order from US as it costs way to much. I would pay $100 in duty alone if not more.Quote:

hi does the Coolermaster Real Power 1000w Modular Power Supply work with this mobo thx for your time ;)
I have this configuration and it works fine.Quote:

On boot VGA fan @ 100% and 3 red led on.
I tried with 2 4870, 8600gt and single ram on 2-4-6 slot.
The LCD poster just says welcome and then begins counting.
Incompatibility with the Galaxy?
Any idea?
Thx :)
Hi, which the best Bios for Rampage II Extreme x58 ????
YES I had the same problem! DROVE ME NUTZ! no matter what i tried couldent get it to fire up... went to Best buy and bought (and later returned) an antec 550w and it fired up immediatly. Just ordered the Corsair HX 1000 Which seems to be popular and works with the R2E.Quote:

What are slots 2-4-6? Are you using your memory in A1, B1, and C1 (blue slots)?Quote:

If you have done all of this then maybe borrow one from a friend and try it would before buying a new one. The board seems to be finicky with the PSUs it likes. It's definitely an annoyance.
I had that batch number for the i7 940. The chip ran fairly cool but it did not overclock well relative to other i7s. I managed to get 4.2GHz but voltages needed to be around 1.45V. One thing I can say for sure is that the IMC on my chip was sub-par.Quote:

I would not touch CPU PLL voltage. It will not affect your OC but it can kill your chip. The Vcore in my opinion should be kept below 1.45V for 24/7 and QPI if you want to be absolutely safe at 1.35V.Quote:

I do not know what he happens here, that I obtain to stabilize with 21 x 192 1.40v, but in 20 x 200 I do not obtain to stabilize. What it can be this?
Will it do 18 or 19 x 200? Figure out your max bclk with low multi first and then up the multi.
Well, I did not post a screenshot but I did do that test. I did not arbitrarily declare it stable :D I tested Uncore up to 4211MHz using Memtest86+ 2.11 and Memtest HCI for a few hours. It went fine. Maybe if I redo the test on higher Uncore (4.3GHz+) I will post the screens then. I was definitely stable.Quote:

anyone else experiencing this where 2GB RAM just dissapear with certain settings?
Yup, this is a known behavior. I am not sure if it can be attributed to the board or the IMC or a bit of both but either way it is there...Quote:

The board and/or the IMC cannot handle 6GB at 1900Mhz+ it seems....
BL
It can. It is your timings. You would have seen the PM I sent :DQuote:
