Hi,
Does any body know where the MB temp sensor is located? I got around 51C (all on auto and stock) read from it when rest is in mid 30 and I have got quite good airflow.
Another question - is it safe to leave options on auto in bios and OC as far as it will go and tweak things when it stops to go further or is it not a good idea ? "D
If not, than what start options r good?
(I am in process of reading thread but it takes time...)
Cheers
my manual says yellow slot as well. and no it not a dfi manual
Some time ago i did a test, installing a new OS on a raptor 74 gb raid 0 first on speeding HDD port and after on ICH10 controlled port: on ICH10 they were faster :)Quote:

ah thank you, i'll go with the ICH10R then. can i still use the black slots to raid the two drives with the ICH10R or just connect the optical drives for normal use without any performance penalties, or are the black slots only dedicated for the speeding HDD function?
last quick question concerning RAID, is there some other way to install the RAID drivers with a flash drive instead of a floppy on XP? i know with vista this is no problem at all. booting with XP and pressing F6 to load additional drivers will require drive a:/ and there's no way to change to another drive. is there some way around this?
EDIT: found the answer in THIS thread. basically ICH10R wins. lol and i realized i responded in that thread too...
Can any one show with a picture where I can measure Vcore, Vdimm and NB please?
I want to be sure what voltage I use... :)
Another question:
I dont understand the link between PLL, FSB(Vtt) and Vcore but I do know that higt Vtt,PLL & Vcore can kill my cpu immediately. What I undestand you recommend for 24/7 use:
Vcore ~1.4V
Vtt ~1.35V
PLL ~1.55V
If I use higher PLL, does it mean I can lower my Vcore for same clock? ...or if I want to lower my Vcore I have to play with GLTīs?
To run 4.5GHz stable I have to use around 1.42-1.43 Vcore but it feels little to high for me, right?
Same as you Vega ;)
@Seban : you have to check the passiv rad of the board, so change thermal past
and add some plastic stuffs behind the screws and PCB
You'll loose 10° after all mate (dat's not even so much :D)
Well no problems when it comes to RAID with the 1602 bios for me but the multi is stuck at 9.5 :down:
Asus should shape up!
My NB SB and rest are ok only MB is acting on me... so it does not look like bad contact too me, rather stuck sensor - this is why I was asking if anybody knew where it is located.Quote:

Thx Eeky
No idea where the MB sensor is located, perhaps get a hairdryer and point it at different parts of the board and try to get it to increase? Sounds odd though, I haven't heard of a stuck mobo sensor reported for these boards before.
EDIT - be careful when doing this, dont point it at anything for too long or it can get too hot.
That sounds like and idea... but I will not hide I was counting for some easier answer - like mb is no important do not worry about it :D... well I guess I have to fire up my gf 2500w hair dryer.
Thanks Cryptik
so we are two ... :)Quote:

Can someone please help me, I water cool and want to get to 4 ghz.
I can't get the bios template into my post, how do you guys do it.
Specs are in my Signature.
... does any body else had problems with Hiren's Boot on MF2 and booting from it?
I can not boot from Hiren's cd.
My problem:
On my old rig I had dual boot Vista 64 + Xp 32. My DFI died. On new rig I installed new Vista 64 on old Xp partition (just for now) it was working fine but after few restarts old Vista Boot Menu came up where all options lead to no where :clap: :ROTF:.
I assume active partition is one with old Vista and this must be the reason for old boot menu to come up (but why the hell it did come up after 4th or 5th restart...).
Hiren will not boot for some strange reasons - any alternatives for Hiren to maniupulate partition tables? or solutions how to get rid of this nasty old boot screen?
PS>Fixmbr is of course no go as it can damage more the repair.
Spent a whole week tuneing my settings for this board with a Q9650.
Now at 4410Mhz 24/7 - Sweet! :up:
Details here;

Very nice result.
Some tips for clocking q9550 e0?
I wonder if someone with a q6600 can post a template?
if you have template for 3,6-4Ghz , you save my day=)
Thanks anyway;)
The Mamal: Nice:D
Make it three... :DQuote:

So far it's stable after a couple of reboots, after the last one I did 10 tests on maximum stress in Linpack with 8gb Mushkin XP2-8500@1081mhz and passed with flying colors... "Knock on wood":shocked:
aren't all processors 64bit these days? so just for clarification, i should still DL the "64bit ALL OS" even though i'm running XP 32bit right?Quote:
