Nah, thats not enough. I was thinking of regions below 1V;)

Tried P09, it's bollocks. Same like 176/177 .
P09 gives me constant "CMOS checksum error" can't save anything, but the good news is that i removed one "troublesome" memory stick (micron D9) and left the other 2 OCZ XTC and bumped the cpu a little ;>Quote:

nothing special , but i will brake the 4Ghz barrier , only a matter of time.
The BIOS is 1.7 beta 7
I highly recommend to use afud408 to flash the bios, 412 and 418 cause cmos errors, basically they don't destroy it.
Did you guys try out the USB memory stick BIOS flashing by MSI forums? I've been using it all this while and it's great. Everything is automated.
yep, i only use the tool to make a bootable stick , then i cancel the "auto" mode and prefer to flash myself ;] (old school ;f)Quote:

Today it's going to be a busy day for me ;]
Yes I'm using that, actually I use a usb flash drive ever since.Quote:

I used the usb too.
Very convenient. :D
Been using afud412 to do my flashing...
so far all is well...
pray nothing goes wrong..
heehee...
When you hit 4ghz.Quote:

Super Pi 1m run , bumped the vcore to 1.57 just to be "safe" ;] , memory @ 5-5-5-15 just to be sure that they aren't the "culprit"

Right now I'm using official bios 1.6 I would like to know which bios has the best overclocking on memory? Will bios 1.7 improve memory overclocks and timings? My A-Data Vitesta is supposed to hit 1066Mhz and I can only get 962Mhz.
is your Vitesta guaranteed by the manufacturer to hit 1066 ? , i didn't find any kind of differences with different bios'es , 1.6 is ok , i'm now on 1.7beta7 and i don't see any difference , some ppl like the 1.1 version , some 1.3 or 1.4Quote:

I'd like to know how that MSIHQ tool works ... for instance where does it get the boot files from, and what about the SureHands option, and how does it know the difference between a beta bios & an official one.
it's just bunch of DOS files, and generic USB Key boot files + the MSI .bat filesQuote:

good to know ... but I still like to do it myself when it comes to BIOS updates, I stick 3 or 4 BIOS on a CD together with afudos & the boot files, then it's easy to change between them.
Very nice xeon u have. :DQuote:
