TRFC changes on new bios.
I need to know for sure that this new bios works with the E8400
New bios (1003) has the same issues as upgrading from <0901 to >0901, saved profiles just reset to "AUTO" on rebooting. You have to set it all again.
Aside from that, it seems quite nice. Not tested much, but there are changes. TRFC being a big one...
p$YcHo wrote that there are no changes in temperatures of 45nm, too. He will asking for another bios now ;)
But sb. wrote, that 65nm temperatures now seems right again after that issue with 0907.
TRFC is biggest change I read.
Anything else seems to be like in 0903 and 0907, but I didn`t try it out till yet.
That`s all I read at forumdeluxx.de.
any better gtl contol on the new bios? im at work and it will be an hour and a half before i get home to try it out.
I've came to the conclusion this set up with Dual prime95 4 hours @ 4.2 ghz vcore 1.60:down: , ilde 24c, load 63c. NB @ 1.65v load 40c, SB @ 1.20v 31c. The problem is that I cannot lower the vcore @1.60 in order to stable dual prime95. The vcore is way too much! It should be at vcore 1.45v and temps are too high with the Coolit Freezone...It must be the PSU Enermax Liberty 620 Dual rail @ 36amps lack of AMPS? My goals is to reach 4.7 ghz:) I think the PSU is holding it back!
It was alittle iffy at first but the bios seems to work well once you figure out the memory settings so it will boot.

Going to run a little OCCT / Prime test and see if its still stable at my settings
Not sure how I feel yet about this bios. The 400 strap settings I had w/ 0907 would not boot. As a matter of fact 400+ fsb would not boot at all on the 400 strap. I'm up and 100% now on the 333 strap at 400fsb, but performance is a little worse than 0907 bios.
It must be memory sub-timings that are effecting it, but I swear the board timings are much more loose on this version. Now that I'm at 400 x9 I'm not sure whether I should go for tighter timings and try to make up the performance gap from 0907 or if I should go for top frequency on this bios.
I'll start with the 400 strap and see where I get. I'm guessing this bios is designed for higher clocks needed for the 45nm processors coming out.
Well, this makes no sense, but I could not previously boot to 400 strap and now, after booting with transaction booster: disables, static read and clock twister: disabled/light, I can not boot with 400 strap, booster enabled, and twister strong. Those exact settings wouldn't work before.
The only change was settign wirte to read delay, read to precharge and write recover in the bios. Although there are more memory subtimings, they make no sense to me and never have. It just seems these setting in this bios is even more confusing.
I think I'll wait til' I get my other 2 sticks back to go much further.
Title says it all :D
PS: PL 7 on 266 strap.
I got the RMA back and everything seems fine now, thanks for all the help. Installed vista 64 this go around and the supreme-fx optical has quit working I saw the problem posted when I searched but never saw a answer. Is there one? Worked fine on XP.
What kind of memory you're using and r u running 4x1GB sticks or 2x2GB sticks? I have the same problem with 9x400 as well but I didn't get BSOD when running OCCT. It just either restarts or crashes after a few mins. :D
I only see BSOD when running 425x9 though. :p: I haven't thought about giving it up yet eventhough it really makes me sick having 9x400 stable. Gotto give it another try, with new BIOS maybe.
Using 1003 BiOS, it all works as before (445*9 or 400*9 with E8400), but I still can't resume from Sleep mode, while E6600 worked fine (XP SP3 RC2)
How hard it is to have tRFC in steps of one?
Abit Quad GT has them up to 70 with +1 increment?
Come on Asus it is not that hard...plz
Yay! New BIOS! P$ych0 and Kup, kudos.
Zucker, why does your Everest stepping say C0/M0??? What's M0???
