When i get this on my P35, i just uplug the power cord from the PSU and then wait few seconds then plug it back in with a cmos clear, and im on my way again.Quote:

Well I guess my CPU is officialy = the suck.
I successfully got the new bios installed. I can now get into windows at over 400 FSB.
However! my maximum stable overclock is still 3200x2 ALL STOCK VOLTAGES.
I tried upping the NB voltage to 1.4, CPU to 1.4 1.36 1.24 etc and could not get prime stable at even 3300 MHZ on my Q9450. Even tried playing with the VVT a bit. Core 2 fails right away in prime no matter how much voltage I feed tot he CPu over 400 FSB.
However at all stock voltages and it seems prime stable @ 3.2 ghz. This is my first intel CPU in several years but I have never had another CPU that overclocks off stock volts, but does not go any higher when adding voltages.
I tried to Memtest @ 450 mhz and my memory failed (8GB G.Skill DDR2 1100 5-5-5-15). Why would memtest fail? Could the CPu being crazy unstable at that FSB cause memtest to fail? It seems fine at 400 FSB, but that is not what I paid for.
Really Really Disappointed in my upgrade from my old Opteron 165. If I could do it again I would have stock with the opteron 165 setup for another couple years. I'm not seeing a huge difference in performance from this PC and my 3 year old opty 165. Not worth the price difference anyway.
So is m CPU just a dud? Should I pickup another one? The Fuzion WB is keeping temps under controll and the new MB waterblock is nice, but I guess I don't really need either one since I'm only running stock voltages...
hello,
how can i get about 500MHz with this mainboard. if i put 500MHZ FSB in the bios system dontīstart. I got a blackscreen and i need to clear cmos.
what cpu do u have, and u will need about 1.515-1.6V NB
It takes some time and patience to get the 45nm chips to OC well. GTL's play a MAJOR role in overclocking these chips, as well as VTT and NB volts. It took me almost 4 days to find the workable settings for my chip on my board.
BTW Memtest will fail if your other settings are not correct.

I guess im not stable at 3.2ghz stock volts. Testing now at CPU 1.36v NB 1.3v vvt 1.04 What about them should I play with, and how do I know when I need more vt voltage? I Everyone says GTLs need adjustment but I'm not sure how to adjust them, or where the setting even is. My AMD's chips were alot simpler.Quote:

unless i fry my ut p35:rofl:
this is why .second pic is my 24/7
wow thats interesting. i always thought higher clock speed lower fsb would give better results but theres not much difference there is there.
i knew i should of got a wolfie instead of xeon quad. i can barely get a 440fsb with this thing lol
i wouldnt worry running at that clock speed if only at 1.38v. thats still fairly low. ur on water arnt u?
:rofl::rofl: what water :rofl::rofl:Quote:

unless you wanna play @ 700fsb its biostar p45
wait till i get bored n do a suicide shot
can you imagine some cas 4 runs @ that speed
fsb sweet spot is 510-540;)
hahahah i just bought a biostar TPower I45 last week from mtech. arrives end of nxt week lolQuote:

im hopeing my xeon x3360 will do 4ghz on it , it cant on this x48 thats for sure. i should go dual core though. quads are too hard.
Interestingly I can't even get my computer stable at @ 2400 MHZ 400 FSB. No matter how many volts I pump into it. I can't figure out what is going on with this new system?
Bad MB? Bad Memory? Bad CPU? What can I do next to figure it all out?
yep, thats why its good to have many spare parts or similiar systems . that way u can trouble shoot.Quote:

i couldnt get stable for a while with lots of crashes. then i discovered it was my raid0 causing it. disabled raid0 and everything ran smooth all the way to 430fsb.(quad)
Ok, well thats not possible I don't have another $1500 to troubleshoot.Quote:

So I removed all sticks but one and got no errors (underclocked). Then I put a second stick in and tested and it appeared bad, so did the 3rd, which I thoguht is crazy so I better test the slots on the MB, cause if anything, the memory is made in taiwan and everythign else is made in china!...
Appears with 1 stick the memory works fine (green slot 1). In green slot 3 I get errors immediatly in Intel CPU Burn. I heard it takes a month + to RMA to DFI and I am out of the 15 day from online. I might try a buy swap and return from a local store, or else I will buy a different MB and sell this one when I get it back from RMA.
Now I'll also need to find a way to remove the tape from the fuzion mount. But I'll leave that for another thread.
I will also need to flash back to the origional bios! replace origional Heatsinks and remove additional swiftech HS's I put on some of the V-regs... Lame, money time and work, and yet I have to pay more, get a different MB and re-install windows a 3rd time! If I was a company This would be over $1000 of labor, talk about screwing the customer...
i doubt its the memory slot test your sticks again with memtestQuote:

you shoulda bought an asus its user freindly even a dell
I will test again, what a PITA. Heres a pick I snapped before I tossed it in.Quote:

Ok here is the deal. Memory works in Slot 1, or in Slot 3. However I get errors in Intel CPU Burn when using both slots 1 & 3. How can I correct this? I need to use all 4 slots. Timings are set to auto in the bios. 5-5-5-15, this is PC2-8800 and all 4 sticks were purchased together as a kit. But aparently they do not wok when paired so I must have a setting wrong?
Also with your problem using raid, was it just disable din software or did you have to avoid using the green ports? I have 3 Hard Drives, no raid, but I did plug them all into the green ports.
How are you guys finding the E8600 for overclocking with bios 725?
geez man you need more juice on nb 1.5v more if needed youn on water so ...Quote:
