neo mike,thanks.yor right about 500fsb and a quad. if i can get there and then get memory @5:6 diveder i think i would be one happy camper.still working on it. running 1:1 my everest scores arent that impressive.also i think im going to give the teams a shot with the quad.http://i42.tinypic.com/2h51z4l.jpg
@Ghostleader
if i remember correctly (i'll have to check again), with my gskill 2x2GB 8800 PI and ocz 9200 flex ii, i can do all things that you mention you couldn't do, as of now, i think it's definitely possible that this is a problem with only certain ram kits.

I think youīre right. I remember your screenies with those.Quote:

My Dominator are on the ram QVL list for this board, strange, it seems like there is some of those UD3P board thatīs more picky the others.
I can boot with dual channel strap 333 multi 2,40B with bus 434 ram 1042 but not with bus 435 ram 1044, no matter what I do.
Run ram 1066 or 1080 with bus 400 or 450 in dual channel :shakes:, single channel :yepp:
This is the same with all my ram 2x1 (7 set) or 2x2 (3 set).
Strange thing, I can do 1200 with my 2x2 HyperX PC9600 at bus 400, 450 and 500 but not 1066 or 1080 at bus 333, 400 or 450. :shrug:
I have revision 03, stepping A3 on my P45 chip.
Maybe I should try to RMA the board and see if the new one is better.
This board is just too much fun for memory OCing! Kits I've struggled to clock over DDR2-1200 can do 650+ on it with relative ease.
scoobie dave bios F8a doesnt play well with ET6.so if you have ET6 installed to monitor you volt and temps you will get an annoying message everytime ET6 is started stating your application has found some update.http://i40.tinypic.com/5xvfpz.jpg
hmm i haven't noticed something like that yet, might be a NB strap change, well i don't really know, but i can check mine and see if i also have same problem, i'll check this later and let you know.Quote:

The following settings been working for me:Quote:

You'll of course need to find the right vcore for your chip.
BTW, I am running 2-1G modules. If you are running 2x2G, you may need more MCH Core.
You have all my respect, you know that, you have helped my a lot in past.Quote:

I have run my 2x2 Dominator v1.1 at bus 550 ram 1100 with my E8400, it was just a short test so I have no screenie or setup that I can share with you, it was stable enough to boot into Windows but I didnīt run any test.Quote:

@Ghostleader, Stock volts on those Dominator OC's?
it seems okay to me for booting 435fsb strap 333mhz memory multi 2.4B,Quote:

could you also try something similar to this voltage setting in your BIOS and see if you can boot your system this time?

You're welcome.Quote:

then my answer is, sure i can, with the above voltage setting my system will boot into Windows fine at 450fsb, but the system may not stable due to 450x7.5 it will certainly needs more volts and some other tuning in BIOS.
anyways, all of these following BIOS set worked for my E8400 and Q9300, 4x1GB HyperX 9600's (and 4x1GB HyperX 9600+Gskill 8500 HK)...
450fsb, Turbo or Standard (Extreme mode never worked for my ram kits), strap 333mhz, memory multi 2.4B, , 5-5-5-15 DDR-1080, tRD 8,
450fsb, Turbo or Standard, strap 400mhz, memory multi 2.66D, 4x1GB, 5-5-5-15 DDR-1200, tRD 7,
450fsb, Turbo or Standard, strap 266mhz, memory multi 2.50A, 4x1GB, 5-5-5-15 DDR-1125, tRD 8.
so today i woke up and was just about to start OCing when i notice that my airconditioner wouldnt start up,instead it just hummed.i was so upset.been looking forward to pushing my new 9650.so i got dressed went outside with a little stick and shoved it into the area where the fan is and gave it little nudge(it was frozen stuck -7c outside) came back in and turned it on and bingo im ready to start OCing.well i decided that since im pretty stable at 482x8.5=4097,i would try to change dividers to 5:6 but no go.no matter what i try it will not boot using stap 2.04B.tried different ram no go,tried mch up to 1.5 no go,tried upping vdimm to 2.3 no go.do you think my memory controller is flaking out on me here?any ways i decided to go for 490 fsb w/mem@1:1 and got this.http://i43.tinypic.com/wjhx1t.jpg
I'm set 1:1 now and it fails. I contacted Gigabyte Tech Support and there response to me is to go buy some value ram to see if it works. WTF?! So you make a mobo that supposedly supports DDR1333 but I am to go buy value ram?Quote:

pangingIII,ill give that a try.heres my latest,still priming as i post this.http://i41.tinypic.com/ws3awz.jpg
Sorry Ghost, only just seen it your question.Quote:

2hrs prime95 at 500fsb with my Q9650.going to try and lower some volts now.http://i44.tinypic.com/2im2kr9.jpg UPDATE.UPDATE,this board and this cpu just love each other ok,after i went and lowered some of the voltages i was still able to up the fsb to 506x8.5=4300.http://i44.tinypic.com/op31xu.jpg
You cant run 5;6 probally just to tight with that fsb, more than likely a bios issue, , 5:6 is 266 strap right ? try the 333 strap, its the next best thing, very nice clocks, im realy like this 9650 quad think its time to get one, but 1:1 is killing your bandwidth, i would try to get 333 you should be able to make that work, keep up the good work:up:
mike thats the problem i cant get it to run 5:6,which is the 333 strap. even if i lower the fsb to 480 no go.i dont get it ive tried 2GB cellshocks and now im using 2GB teamsand still no go.its weird cause that was the strap ive always used with my dual cores and never had a problem it always seemed to be the best strap to use(556fsb was no problem with dualcore using 5:6 333strap)thats why im wondering if my memory controller is borked.when i try 480fsb and use the 333 strap 5:6 divider it does this weird boot thing where it boots then shuts down real quick then starts up and shuts down quick again and then keeps doing this till i turn it off at the psu switch.it doesnt do the three boots and reset to default thing.so im kind of stumped here
You could get it with dual core ? then it has to have something to do with its a quad, is only thing i can think, if dual core works same fsb on 5.6, then switch to quad, must be wont go with a quad, thats sad. Have you tried the 400, i guess 266 aint going to go if 333 wont go, i always like to clock on the 266 strap, but of course on my nvidia 790i the straps are way different, there is no 266,200,400,333, so its kinda weird. Must be its a quad thing, or just this board with a quad, to bad, but still very smoking clocks you got, must be pretty dam fast, im looking to get this chip.
Comes a point Raja when you have to just say thats it, you have a great overclock, and enjoy your board, i was clocking my board always trying for more, more, then reached as far as air cooling would take me, thought about watercooling, but thats a no go, dont trust it, or want to drop the cash on it, found a stable point that was acceptable for me, now im just enjoying it. Now im saving for nice video card, tv card, im done.
