I am going mad...Just did what rob2k and still f***ing doing the same!!
Running on 1001 bios but will flash the 1003 and load defaults and see maybe this one works better.

ROB2K CAN YOU POST your settings with 472 fsb please. thanks excuse me for my english i'm italian.
@ ragheb - Nightmare !!, another thing I did at the same time was to uninstall Memset just in case this was changing the settings whilst Windows was booting.
@ DerekT - Cheers for the heads up. 1003 is working well here too. I can now run Intel Burn Test and HyperPi at 475FSB

@ Gullo92 - Will PM my settings to you to save space.
hi there where you downloading the 1003 bios from , thanks
can you post bios 1003? i don't find it
1003 only seemed to be at these 2 earlier

Yep. I am now fully game stable.Quote:

I will disable this and see if that sort this weird thing up..thanks for the hunch.
rob2k..Well done :up:for your input. the mem timings now work but you neednt uninstall Memset, just uncheck the entry using msconfig and it should bypass the last saved file.
hi
in to bios do you have changed other settings?? example chipest ecc.. because the ram is unstable with voltage 2.05.
you put the ram into slot white or blue??
both slots generally similar but the white slots are supposed to be the best ones
i have q9550 rammpage extreme ad corsair dominator 1800( ram of rob2k) the overclock of cpu is with multi 8.5 my q9550 has multi 8.5. excuseme for my english i'm italian

worth a bit more work though as 200strap/tRD6 (above 475FSB) gives reasonable performance for CL8.
All other straps are slower with CL8/1:2 at 500FSB.
500x9 / 1000mhz / 200 strap / CL8 / tRD 6 / CT Strong
thanks cstkl1 for the GTL, IBT stability is better than with my GTL

Thanks cstkl1 & cheapseats for your help:). I managed finally to get the following setup see picture as per cheapseats above bios settings. Memtest stable after 100% run but have not yet pushed my rig to fully be happy that it completely stable at these speeds.
Anyway, glad to have resolved this finally but now I want to hit 600 FSB & I was wondering what I need to put in bios in order to always get a 5:8 FSB to DRAM ratio?

very nice ragheb performance level 6 at ddr2040 , excellent :up:
Thank you Glenboy.
I was getting rather frustrated with my Cellshock RAM & I must say it is very finicky with vDIMM above 1.90 with huge instability in Windows. Nevertheless it maintains tight timings very well at that vDIMM.
Now, I'd like to get into the 600Mhz Club...

Thanks for your guide too will try that out later...Quote:

My Crucial Value (D9JNL) also have this problem.Quote:

Hi ci2kla,
check the post (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...postcount=1812) where I managed 1800 with CL7 with my RAM.
See if you can replicate it using the same settings..
Good luck
Thanks but sorry not likely...I've tried like 40 different combinations but still no luck:(Quote:

can you help me with overclocking??. i have rampage extreme(with bios 1003) intel q9550 corsair dominator 1800 mhz 2n 2.00V 7 7 7 20(my ram haven't xmp function). help me please. can you post settings with my setup? excuse me for my english i'm italian. this is the settings of rob2k he is a qx9770( in this overclock have multi 8.5 q9550 have multi 8.5) rampage extreme and my ram.

You need any spoonfeeding??:p:Quote:

test FSB stable? HCI memtest 3.8 run in dual / memtest86+ v2.01, test #7

well I can still remember just last 2 months I was getting mad sturggling to get 535 FSB stable on a DFI LP UT-X48-T3RS...compare with this board...just keep everything auto and adjust the FSB frequency to 600, fire it up, the BIOS screen pops up, bravo.:p:Quote:

i don't expert with overclock can you post the setting that i put into bios?
