What is latest beta bios? That F3e?
So what does it change?
Correct, F5e is the latest.Quote:

Damn, am I blind or something?
I cant find that PL setting from bios and no CPU GTL settings.
PL is under RAM timings per channel, and CPU GTL settings dont exist in the BIOS
Hmm, Under what name?
Under "static tRead Value"Quote:

We benched the other day, bios f3a was the most stable one, f3c was really weird! Didnt try the new f3e.
We managed to reach 670FSB on a E8500 again and again, so it might have been bios related.
Max FSB on the QX9650 was around 525fsb, and a 32M at 500FSB was not a problem, we didnt use much time here, so im sure the board is capable of more :yepp:
More pics and results here (post #8 + 20) , sorry for the danish :p:

So which one is "the" bet bios now?
So many questions Bulldog, but have you actually tried stuff out for yourself?
No only fiirst bios relese shortly and then directly to this F3e.
This is my best CF stable shot.

Same thing with F3c, no other than 2.0D work :(
Edit:
WTF?? I did put strat to auto, now other 400MHz dividers do work.....
Weird issues.
That works also ^^ And i think that the best meme ratio for 600-700mhz fsb :D
IT's F3E
EP45TEXTRÊME (Bios F3E)
CPU : Intel Core 2 Duo E8500
CPU Cooling : Tuniq Tower 120 for max fsb and Cascade for 6ghz screen
NB Cooling : 120mm Fan

Oh ! Nice FSB Pt1t, but, how about ratio 2.00D ?? N how about CPU Volt PLL when u set it auto !
Ok i've got three beta bios ,i test that soon ,and i put one two stages on this week-end.
I'm using the F3E bios, All air cooling on a stock board.
I'll take it sub zero at some point this week, but for now, on air it can do 668fsb

You can validate with 630MHZ and bios F3E ?
When i'm around 630MHz ,cpu-z can't read the good FSB. :( With Cpu-z version 1.46.2 it(s same thing :(
Pt1t has same problems but higher 670MHz
great going Deanzo:up:
Deanzo : nice FSB on air cooling ! How about your voltage ? (PLL, VTT n NB )
I thought I had killed my retail GA-EP45T-Extreme but I tried it earlier this morning and it booted. I plopped in my brand new E8600 and managed this with 20 minutes of testing. Can only get the board to POST at 500FSB though so I had to setFSB up to 6GHz. Managed 6300Mhz so far with 1.84v in BIOS, 1.808v idle and 1.77v under load. Was done with an F1EE with a -104C base temperature. I had to dash out of the house so the entire setup froze over with the pot at -9x Celsius so now I'm drying the board off. Later tonight I'll try to get 6.3GHz 3D stable :up: This board is really nice with the right BIOS!
congratz T_M nice fsb with air will you try waterchiller on nb or ln2 :d
this board loves High FSB for Quad core.

New Bios out , F3i
I can boot and do 1M to 600mhz fsb with DDR3 to 1000mhz 7-6-5-15 :D

Now are we talking...
The ram speed on the 3:5 on this board is not real.
(Just look at Deanzo's screenshot above if you want to know why)
