Man we are right there together on our scores, same ram. :up:Quote:

and second, how do i set up a RAID on the ICH10R? when i set the SATA to RAID in the BIOS, it seems like the boot up gets frozen during the POST. i tried putting the RAID drivers from the CD on a flash drive also and it won't work. i formatted the flash drive to FAT format. tried this on BIOS 1501 and ket's modded 1307. does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

No I am still playing when I have time. This is my 24/7 rig and it runs WCG at night so between being on the forum and crunching I don't get much play time.Quote:

If your using XP try getting teh updated chipsets drivers from Intel they might help.
If you have a spare drive about you could alwayd install the OS on it then creat the raid in XP and migrate the OS drive to the raid and it should be good. A few extra steps but it will work. Or you could send me those raptors and I can test them to make sure there not faulty :D:D:D:D
Here are the links to the UPDATED raid drivers

@Grnfinger
Can u post your voltages settings??
My Gskill PI run Prime blend 11h at 570 mhz...but i need 1.4+ @NB so there is a problem with..--> (f@cking vNB-VTT=0.15 bug :D).
i have booted at 580,590 but the system is very unstable.
At 600 mhz the mobo posts !! but freezes when loading win..;) :up:
how do i migrate the OS the drives in RAID? do i need to make an image of the orginal drive first?Quote:

I am very eager to know how you can manage to run 1200+MHz with only 2.2V. I have tryed several times now but no success. What timings and subtimings do you use....nb voltage?Quote:

It runs so cool... Check out NB / SB / MOSFET temps during 2h of prime95...
Air cooled system. Ambient temps arround 27-28C.

hey all, just got this beast on thursday, but haven't had the time to play until last night... here's where i'm at now.
http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...666/FSB425.jpg
this is the first time i've ever tried overclocking with an intel chipset, always used nvidia before, so a lot of these options are new. :confused:
does anyone know if asus' pc probe is accurate for voltages?
i want to say thanks to everyone posting problems/solutions because they have been VERY helpful! every time occt wouldn't pass i was digging through this thread looking for answers!;)
the voltages are pretty accurate to -/+ 0.01v. you could use a digital mulitmeter to measure the actual voltages.
your e8500 is an E0, so you wont need 1.3X vcore for just 4ghz unless it's a really bad chip. you can either lower the vcore or raise your clocks
hmmm i seem to be having a problem dropping my FSB to 500 w/ 8.5 multi and then using 5:6 ratio, i can get bench stable w/ 2.35 vdimm but im getting frequent crashes while gaming. so atm im back on 533x8 1:1.
should i try relaxing the timings? or should i adjust something else. messing with any of the GTL's bluescreens me when loading windows.
Unless your dominators are D9 based its very unlikely you'll be running 1200MHz on a reasonable voltage.
guys just a question: is it true that the white slots (DIMM) are better than the blue?
I think that the mobo's manual says to use the blue ones (recommended).Quote:

Yes, on the manual, they recommend the blue ones. They don't say why...
@EVO, they sent revision A2.

LOL yellow slots! =D
On my printed manual, it says blue slots.
Looks like you have some funny manual there hum? Are you sure it is a MIIF manual? Maybe a DFI manual? =/
ATM I use the white slots!
Can any one confirm that the blue slots do any improvement?? :)
ppl see what they want....my 4 kits of ram perform the same in the blue or white there is no diffrence in performance or clocks
I haven't seen any difference too. I tryed the blue and white also.
But I am no board engineer, and if asus's board engineers wrote that on the manual, there should be a reason for it. So, I say using the blue slots, is probably the smartest choice. Trying to out-smart the asus board engineers is probably the "not so smart" choice.
