Hey guys, I would like to know if the RE can run quads at 500FSB for 24/7 use, with of course, 24/7 safe volts...
I got some DDR3 ram, and I am considering a RE now...

Hi there, 475 HyperPI/OCCT/IBT stable is what I am running and as high as I have seen. 480 runs HyperPI but not IBT. I would say definately not to 500 :down:Quote:

Asus don't have a nice P45 and DDR3 combo, so if RE can't do it, I will have to look at some Gigabyte P45 DDR3 combo, but I didn't want to go Gigabyte... Always Asus here.
This is what Maximus II Formula can do with quads, for 24/7 use...

I see QX uphere, so you must have unlocked multiplier? I think it's up to 12x? I don't see any problem with this CPU, your MB and RE.
Nice results on the Maximus II Formula :up: - looks like you would gain around 2000Mb/s read speed on DDR3 at 475 bus just comparing with my Everest scores.
I think the RE is widely recognised as the best for high FSB speeds and like you I tend to always build with an Asus Mobo. How about water on the CPU and going to the next multiplier ? - not sure what multi's are available on your processor.Quote:

I am looking at some DFI mobos now too... I think I will research a bit more, before defining my DDR3 mobo.
Thanks anyway..

having a hard time to get IBT PASS @ 485 FSB.
necessary CPU VTT rise significantly from 1.2v (471FSB) to 1.32v.
Hard locks (mostly) / BSODs / reboots occured when attempting to run IBT when I leave all CPU GTLs in auto.
With a slight tuning of CPU GTLs IBT does run but only 80% hit rate (8 out of 10)
So that means still has a way to go...I guess to run 500 FSB a minimum of 1.4v VTT will be a must...
can you post your new settings with q9550 step e0 please? thanksQuote:

CPU Freq. 477x8
vCore 1.2v
Skews:
CPU Skew: 400ps
NB Skew: 200ps
New discovery: Too much CPU to NB Skew delay (300ps or above for my case) will cause lockups.
EDIT: NB STRAPS WILL AFFECT NB GTL TUNING AS WELL...GUYS PLEASE HELP TO TEST WITH DIFFERENT STRAPS / GTLS :)
For my example, using 468FSB for testing
200 STRAP need +40~50mv to pass IBT, while 333 STRAP need +70mv using the same VTT, vNB, CPU GTL
Hi all,
earlier i had a E8600 on my board and all went perfect even hit a 500x10 fsb with my dominators 1800-7-7-7-20 t1
but now i hve a mountian of problems with my Q9550 :-(
I cant get my memory run @ stock speeds it only will post and boot if i use the CPU level up uttility in the bios ?
If i use manual settings it even not post ??
Is there a problem with this board and the Q9550's ?
sry for bad language (from Belgium) ;-)
gteetzzz
Interesting with different GTL at different straps.Quote:

Setting right now
CPU GTL0 +40
CPU GTL0 auto
NB GTL +40
CPU Freq. 475x8,5
vCore 1.43125
LLC disabled
PLL 1,50
VTT 1.20
vNB 1.59
DRAM 2,16
CPU Skew: 300ps
NB Skew: 200ps
Working to get down DRAM, NB and VTT volt.
Prime95 blend freeze or reboot with vtt 1,10, nb 1,59, ok with vtt 1,20, nb 1,59.
LinX 50 loop ok with vtt 1,10, nb 1,61, error somewhere between loop 35-45 with vtt 1,10, nb 1,59.
HCI design Memtest ok with vtt 1,10, nb 1,57.
So with vtt 1,12-1,20, nb 1,57-1,59, should be stable, then I have to bring down the DRAM volt.
NB GTL +40 seems best for me.
can you screen your accurate settings in to bios and post it pleaseee? excuse me for my english i'm italianQuote:

Muth everything on auto because it's the only thing that seems to work :-( When i try to set sommthing manual it even not POST ??
I Use the 1003 BIOS
It is strange because with my e8600 everething was ok but now with the Q9550 It su*** all the way ....
with my hardware is unstable whe find to do overclock and i set with auto in to bios? this settings is stable at 100%?Quote:

It would have a great benefit if you also start to read "How-to"´s ... cause only if you really know what causes which single setting, you can really oc effectively !
...
And then you would know that a setting for a DualCore can NOT work with a QuadCore CPU.
i need your setting becaus his have my ram and i need all settings i dont speak english excuse meQuote:

also could people post their 24/7 clocks people post clocks all the time but I want to see what your running 24/7 no bs im sure the 8600 on water can run 4.8 24/7 im thinking 5ghz 24/7 is a really narrow gap.
Hi guys,
Just to double check the best RAM to use for this board is as below:
1) Cellshock Blacks - Don't know the part number. If anyone knows can you please detail the specifics and possibly a website link
2) G-Skill PI - G.Skill 4GB (2GB x 2) PC3-12800 DDR3 PI 7-7-7-18
3) Corsair 2GB Dominators - Corsair TWIN3X2048-1800C7DF 2GB (2x XMS3 1GB) PC-14400 (1800MHz) DDR3 RAM, 2x240-pin DIMMs
I tried my 2x2gb Corsair Dominators C8DF and it seems the RE hates them with a passion - BSOD even if running all auto and at 333 FSB with a Q9650. Minor voltage increases in DRAM help very little in Prime Blend although BSOD followed in about 5 minutes.
Is it me or do these boards prefer Micron based ICs more than Samsung ones?
Thanks guys
what you guys think:

Hey quattro can you boot into windows with 510FSB/9x multi? If so what voltage?
Nice overclock quattro :up:Quote:

Also, what NB temps do you get under load with the BP blocks ?.
Quattro, nice clocks my friend! :up: Did you set TJ max to 100ºC in Coretemp?
Try 7-6-5-16 timings, that should give some more bandwidth.
first of thanks for all your replies .
sorry mate i still cant boot at 500fsb but im getting there slowlyQuote:

no its set to 95c, should i change it ?Quote:
