Download from this LINK

It is the Pack from first Page and use the p5q 1611m.rom for your Board.

Ok, thats too bad that he stopped modding them?? As Im too lazy to go through the who thread, anyone that could tell me why he stopped?? As the bios´s were great, so they will be missed! :)

I stopped simply because there isn't a whole lot more to accomplish by modding. I'll have a look at this latest batch but don't hold your breath guys.

I have tested the modded 1613 bios on my P5Q pro and I must say it respondes better to higher OC´ing.
545mhz fsb with E8400 on air and still testing..:yepp:
Asus 1613 bios stopped at 530mhz:mad:

Great work with the bios Ket!:up:

Hi, I have ASUS P5Q Deluxe and I have read that ASUS advice that the new Bios 1805 will fix the termal sensors of the motherboard. I have already flashed my Bios with new one but I still have a problem with my Core 3 and Core 4 on my Q9550. The promblem is: it doesn`t matter if my PC is overclocked or default all the programs which indicates the CPU temp shows that the 3rd and the 4th cores have 39C and the temp doesn`t move down. http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/3159/39789092.th.jpg http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/6...4220ik6.th.jpg

Thank you in advance!

Pls give me advice: do I need to wait for another Bios, do I need to change my CPU or do I need to change the motherboard?

I cant figure out why some people are abel to get above 500mhz and i can barely push 500 lol. I guess there all using VFSB voltages beyond Intel specs, i plan to keep my cpu for along time lol

Oh well

I mean 33mhz fsb cant really increase fps in games much at all right ? So why use so much voltage for it.

I think its some of the boards. I tried several bios's and such and with a chip that I know will do atleast 600fsb on my gigabyte will not do anything over 500fsb on the p5q pro. I tried every setting that I could think of and many different ram modules and everytime the same. Would go straight up to 500fsb with minimal volts and then that was it. I could increase voltages thru the rook and it wouldnt boot any higher.

It looks like you have 2 stuck sensors. Do a CPU Cool Down Test and post your results here.

I'd say not to worry, stuck sensors are harmless. But annoying. :)

1.35 Volt is more then enough for air cooling, i prefer to don't pass 1.30Volt for 24/7 Operation.

Any of these KET bios'es for the P5Q-PRO allow for the use of the 400 mem divider?

I downgraded to KET BIOS 1406m and I can finally use the 400 mem strap:up:. Now I can finally OC my PC8500 2x2GB G.Skill ram. Memtested @ 550MHZ DDR1100 so far so good. What the fu*k is wrong with asus's stock bioses for the p5q-pro? This was NOT A POSSIBILITY with a stock asus bios. Thank you KET

I used the 1611 bios from ket but it lowerd my stable oc with 200mhz :( But instead it mad my rams fly:D Max before was about 610-620 but with the modded bios max was 670 :O

Heres a little trick I picked up some P5Q Pro owners at least may find useful. While I was removing the NB/MOSFET cooling solution asus use I noticed 2 little indents on the black foam sticky pad thing put on the NB part of the NB/MOSFET cooler. Evidently it was pushing down on a few resistors, that must of been causing them to get rather hot. Since taking the black pad thing off, cleaning the sticky residue off and setting things back up, things seem to be running much nicer. Haven't fully tested things yet but so far 400FSB 1.1v is no problem, will be pushing further soon.

Without a fan on the NB: 1.3v max. With 40mm fan: 1.45v or so. Above 1.45v your really looking at using a decent all copper NB HS with a 40mm fan and getting hold of a few Enzotech MST 81s.

Hello Ket

I had My new P5Q Pro today. I removed also the Sticky Gray Pad under there and applied some Arctic Silver 5.

I hope i hadn't make a mistake by taking off the Gray Pad too ?

Nope nothing wrong with removing that. Since removing that black foam pad thing it has indeed helped, I need less voltage for 500FSB and things are much more stable. Current settings I'm running are 7x500, 1200MHz RAM @ 5-5-5-12. I can do 5-4-4-12, but it doesn't help on this P45 like it would on a X48 or AMD system :(

Does anyone else get alot of BSODS while using a P5Q-E? The bios doesnt matter I get random BSODs with TCPIP or other errors.

I don't. I do get odd instability issues though that I cant explain as my CPU and RAM are rock stable @ 3.5GHz 1200MHz respectively. Back to the drawing board :eh:

Im prime stable blend and small, but it will randomly crash on me too. I've got a Gigabyte UD3P coming tomorrow to see if its just a flakey board.
