@PangingIII
This is I can go so far with 550x8 only Small FFT I can do with this vcore in the past but fail everything on Blend or memtest. so far I change the kit to ballistix still the same unstable. and for this Ballistix kit I have to up MCH 1.4 or above to get boot certainly. For this setting I not touch about
"Clock Chip control" section just leave it at 800MV ,900 MV ,0PS,0PS

And sorry for my bad english if u don't understand something

lol this is the best clocking mobo i ever had, and I have had alot. I got 550 stable and just did a 9 hour blend run

---

:eek: Very nice I wait to see yr BIOS setting... TQ if u share

pl level 10, 1.26vtt and 1.3nb, strap at 400, prime blend and 3d stable, F6 bios

everything else is auto.... cpu features all shut off. pci-e at 100, nothing special aside from cpu and MCH ref, think they were .768 and .758

I dont use the giga software, sorry guys but i think its JUNK

Is there anyone with a UD3R, Q9550, and running 2x2gigs of ram successfully? IF so, could you please post your settings. thanks.

My 1st time OC with quad.,arrghh.,got the wrong stepping..:(..cannot OC higher i think.,i wonder why the last core is abit hot..will try to get 3.8-4ghz..but maybe the temp is kinda high..:eek:

The part where you say need ET6 to read between .70 to .74
Am I right in that you are saying set all this up as recommendation then run ET6 and see what is reporting, then adjust the voltage to above recommendations?

Just checking as I obviously cannot get to grips with this mobo :(

@ Bluestang

Unfortunately those recommendations did not work. It would not post and restarted with std settings :(

you probably won’t need that much NB voltage, it won't fix anything and can cause problems if it's way too high.

i suggest you first try the following in BIOS... 1) don't set tRD value to 9, 2) reduce MCH core voltage, 3) set CPU PLL to 1.50 or Normal,
4) increase CPU VTT to 1.32, it seems high, but try it out, 5) i'm not sure about your vcore setting, it's your CPU, you should know better, 6) leave all the ref. settings unchanged.
also try using the Geil ram kit again, but bump up vdimm a bit higher.

i also hope that Rattle could help you on this better.

Sorry Phunky:(
I have 45nm Core2Duo so I may not be much help. Someone here has to have something...come on guys lets see if we can get him going:clap::clap:

i just recieved my Gigabyte GA-EP45T-UD3P and the gigabyte logo is upside down infact the whole northbridge is upside down is this a fault on there part or is this who there coming ow guys???????????????

bugjae i only need 1.26 mch for 545 and 550 i set 1.3, 545 is also the limit of 1.22 vtt, i set 1.26 for 550, other than that, pl 9 might be too tight...

that's nice, and looks like the OCZ kit overclocks well on your board.
can you install the ram sticks into yellow color dimm slots?

here's my quick 4 x1GB at DDR2-1333. it's still a too hot day for more volts on the ram

http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/9...6175752zh1.png

anyways, i think these days i prefer buying 2x2GB with low power but also high overclockable and the ram can take volts when i want to, like the Gskill 9600 PI, but too bad i can't afford it,
and it will be a little while before the kit has its price cut down to something around/below 180USD, or probably when more ram companies can produce more of the like DDR2 parts.

anyone please any pics of your boards installed as i have been told the pics on the website are just illistration only and can change

The board is supposed to look like this.

http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/FileList/...5-ud3p_big.jpg

mine looks like that ^^^

@ Bluestang

Looks like I am the only E6600 owner with this board on here!!

my north bridge is upside down with the logo upsidedown also would you say this could cause a problem or could i just remove it and put it the right way guys?
cheers for responding and helping

Just installed the chip a few hours ago.
Running 4 x 2GB G.Skill F2 8500 @ 2.0v
System Memory Multiplier set to 2.00D, all other settings at Auto.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...ker/q95593.png

Are you having problems populating more than one slot?
Mine booted first time (stock settings) with no issues.
I have noticed that these particular G.Skills seem to prefer lower voltages, as I struggle towards a final setup I'll probably try undervolting them to see what happens.

is load line calibration dangerous for cpu's?

and does anyone have this board running a qx9650?

These settings work for me, I ran all three Prime95 tests 8 hours each, plus 20 reps of Linx.

I've built 6 or 7 systems with the "R" board and so far all rev 1.0 north bridge coolers faced one way and the rev 1.1's the other.... all run just fine so there probably is no "wrong way".

sending back it looks stupid with the gigabyte logo upside down.

would you guys say this board is better than the 790i? (replacing 790i with GA-EP45T-UD3P)

yuck i would only use the 790i if free sli fell in my lap. aside from sli I dont see a reason to have a nvidia chipset. thank the gods for x58 sli

ok lol cheers

Hey that would be perfect for my case as my mobo is upside down compared to normal, lol. So my current NB sink says gigabyte upside down.

Its funny though as the other writing on the board is right side up
