Testing now, hopefully can bring some stability to my system at 3.7ghz

I got my P35-DS4 today, since my P5K-E died.
It was w/ F7 BIOS and I flashed it w/ newer F11.
In BIOS there are now "loadline calibration". Is that for vdroop? It should be enabled?
miahallen, tnx. I'll compare changes w/ multimeter soon...
Well so far at 3.8ghz with 1.48v on bios 1.47v under load. prime ran for 7 hrs last night with no issues, could not do that with prior bios at 3.6ghz. will try 3.9ghz tonight load temps are 64-67c max.
more to follow
OK, I did some measuring on my new DS4. BIOS is F11 (F7 didn't have "loadline calibration").
I thought that Loadline Calibration is for Vdroop, but I was wrong:

...so it's for making real Vcore similar to BIOS value.
:rolleyes:
Is ~0,015V Vdroop big? Need Vdroop mod? Hmm, haven't even noticed, there is any Vdroop mod for DS4/DQ6:rolleyes:
I have a problem . When I power up 4 the 1st time my computer it turns on, then off and then back on when overclocked. This only happens when i turn it and there is no power at all in it (over night i stop the power to it completly like turn off the power source). And after that it goes perfectly stable. My system configuration is :
Q6600 @ 3600mhz (9x400 1.4v)
TRUE 120 cooler
Gigabyte P35-DS4 F11 bios rev2.0
Adata Vitesta 2GB DDR2 800 4-4-4-12 @ 2.0v
Gainward 8800GT 512MB
2x320GB Seagate RAID 0 for win and aplications,games
1x500GB Seagate for data storage
Samsung SH-203B + LG GH20NS10 + Benq 1650 optical drives
Sirtec 560w modular PSU
Antec 900 case.
Should I worry? Someone told me that the MB is verifying something about FSB strap and is nothing to worry about. I tested with Prime 95 for stability about 11 hours and passed succesfully.
10x ... I was worried that my mobo is defective ... almost thought about ordering another one ... :)
shouldn't be normal, my P965-DS4 was fine OCed, and my P35-DS4 was fine too until it no longer recognises increases in FSB and sometimes even boots up at 166*9, its set to be RMAed
Can i ask which sata channel is best for setting up a raid0, yellow, orange or purple? :)
I'm sorry if this was asked before, but I'm going to buy a Gigabyte P35-DS3 v2.0 very soon and I'd like to know something
Does this board offer any memory dividers? I don't mean multipliers.. For example, say I want to run the FSB at 500 and keep the RAM at 400. is this possible?
i currently do similar things with my P5W-DH, but I've come to a point where it's 425FSB limit is just not enough for me.
So, does this board offer a 6:5, 5:4, 4:3, etc FSB:RAM divider?
Thanks in advance.
Yes there are dividers. Im not sure which dividers there are, because in the BIOS they are just numbers like "2, 2.4, 2.5, 3, 3.2, 3.33, and 4".
I have a question as well. I have a P35-DS3R Rev 2.0 on F6. Are there any guides for what the voltages are in the BIOS? There is a "DDR2 Overvoltage" option where i can pick +0.1V, +0.2V and stuff...but none where i can pick a specific voltage like 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, etc.
Anybody know?
lowest is 1:1?
so there is no way i can get memory lower than fsb?
Hi guys,just bougth Wolfdale E8400.So far 4.15GHz stable.
Anybody else with new 45nm CPU?
is the loadline calibration only for the ds4?
As does DQ6 now.
