I'm not sure if you mean rock stable with these high HTT.Quote:

IHS? I don't think I have ever seen those initals for that...what are you talking about?Quote:

Have you guys experienced something simillar:
I am using the internal SATA ports (3&4) in a stripping array. Tested OCZ EB @ 260 2.5-2-2-8 with 3 volts and using a multi of 9 for 15 loops and it ran error free. So I boot up in window at 9*260, I throw sisoft bandwith at her and she just reboots no bsod no lock-up, just a plain old reboot-in-my-face. Since I am waiting on my Mach 2 to be fixed I had not bumped the chip volts and assumed that was the problem. So I load up the bios and re-set 10*213 which I know is stable on stock cooling with the stock volts, it prime95'ed for 10 hours with no errors. When I boot into windows it shows signs of instability (the little windows as encountered a serious error box appears). I am baffled so I restart and set everything at stock in to bios. When I try to boot it now will not load windows for some reason. The NVidia raid app recognizes the array during post but the HDDs will not load the OS. I now have to re-install windows to get the HDD to boot up, which is quite annoying. I knew the board had problems with the external SATA ports over 240 fsb, could it be that I am experiencing the same type of problem with the internal ones (fluke board?)
Another interesting bit of info: when properly booting, the bios recognizes the HDD's as Channel 4 and 5 in the bios, when it refuses to boot it recognizes them as channel 0 and 1.
thanks for reading :toast:
Which would make them suddenly appear as 0 + 1. :D
Ya I read about that issue on the dfi-street forums :) . No, I set all that is SATA to enable to avoid that funky problem.
What would removing it do? That is something that is new to me..Quote:

hey lookhere
Those are the same problems I am having...there is alot of stuff there to read...
Then, if I'm not wrong, we shoult avoid 9x (stability problems) and also half multipliers (performance drop).
If so, my NC 3200+ will be stuck in 10x250 1:1 (2500) unless I play with memory dividers and combinations like 8x312 (2496)
Am I right?
Well I wish I could get higher clocks than 250x8.0. I don't know what else to use if I can't use x9.0. I know this CPU won't do 250x10.0. It won't even load Windows at that.
EDIT:
I tried all kinds of varations of voltages to try 250x10.0 and it will not load. I tried all the way up to 1.500 + 123% and up to 1.8 on the Chipset. Nothing. All well.
I run mine in 1.550 +126% to get it stable at 2.4Quote:

i will be making a single stage phase for cpu, and i hope to hit 3ghz. 300x10 with a 9/10 divisor. so i will have the option if the full 2.1v, but i doubt with phase id need it.
strage how my first 3000 got to 2.5 on onlt 1.625v
btw. i tried 304x8 with 9/10 and it seems to be the cpu not board
You on air cooling? Even if your not what are your temps?Quote:

Just slapped a good old tornado on the ram modules, encountered a peculiar problem when beating my ram up: BIOS checksum error when I set the VDIMM to 3.1 volt, under all conditions. IS this a typical problem? Im thinking I need to adjust my PSU's pots but I just wanted to check with the experts before :toast: .
what ram?
ubermann has an xp-120
when i set up my phase ill see if its the cpu, you and me seem to have the same problem ugp
otherwise ill sell some stuff and get a sempron
what is your stepping and date ugp?
mine are:
CBASC 0423 and
CBAEC 0423
both max out at 8x multi with 270, but i dont think its the 9x multi casue 304x8 wont work either
before i send this DFI back to gameve.com for a RMA does anyone have info on how to just go straight thru DFI instead? from my experiances gameve just sends the mb off to DFI so i may as well do it my self instead of waiting on gameve to recieve my mb then ship it off then having to wait all that time when i could just cut out the middle man....
thx perc,
I am not sure of the date...I am a C0 stepping.Quote:

perc whats wrong with your board? anadtech :rolleyes: said that dfi was very helpful, shoot them a email
2*512 3700EB, 20 loops of memtest at 3-3-2-8-1t 274 mhz but freezes up at 275 with 3.0 volts. 3.1 volts just gives the friendly bios checksum error. Unfortunately I cant get any sandra benchies as my chip cannot handle the 274 fsb at decent speeds without a bump in the vcore, im waiting on my mach2 to come back for that :) .Quote:

my NC comes next week ... i dont like the CH so much :( ...
3400+ CH is max stable for 2450mhz ... 35 sek. pi!
now my new PSU and my 2x256 Corsair BH-5 :D

thx perc,
Mine is :banana::banana::banana::banana:ed also, and insteed of rma it and wait a month i think i trow it in the garbage.
I works stock settings but very unstable when clocking now.
