hi, I have this combination E8400+Gigabyte P35-DQ6 rev. 1.0 but I have problem with performance in all programs... for exampe super PI 1M ... 30-34 s
On my previos CPU E6750 I´ve had 19s ...
I dont know where is the problem, but I think in BIOS...I am using F7e from you... but it didnt help.
The cpu cooler is installed correctly and RM clock didn´t confirm cpu throotling.
The temperature of both cores is constantly 35°C in idle and burn. (measured in core temp 0.96.1)
The OS is new and the task manager shows my 0% to 4 % load after loading, therefore I can´t see the problem in viruses or spyware...
Do you have the same problem or no?
Edit: CPU ID: 00010676 PATCH ID:0606
Anyone with DS3R and 4x1gigs of Ballistix pc8500?? IF so what is your bandwidth with lavalys everest write and read benchmark test. Also state your computer speed and mem timings
Looking for help with memory settings on a DS3R with 2x1gb pc2-8500 crucial ballistix
When i set Voltage for memory in bios to +0.4v, I only get 2.06-8v from sensors.
I have also raised the MCH voltage to +0.2v
If I revert to stock settings, with everything set to auto, and set the memory divider to 1:1, no errors. It also sets the memory voltage to 2v
Also in CPUZ, this is what is shown for the EPP, isnt it off? should it be 2.2v?

Any other suggestions? Iam on the latest F11 Bios. And I am wondering if I need to RMA this board soon.
Thanks in advance
X.T.R.E.M.E_ICE,my E8400(VID 1.1125V)voltage set in bios
4.0GHz 1.35000v stable air
4.1GHz 1.39375v stable air
4.2GHz 1.44275v stable air
Mtex64,I have the same mobo and so far no problem at all.
So far,after 2 days of testing my conclusion is that I already rich the limit of 4.2GHz,with my memory(PC6400) and HSP(Zalman).With new memory(PC8500) and Thermalright-Ultra120Ex,can rich up to 4.5 GHz.Beyond this,only water or phase cooling can achive higher speed.
My super PI 1M is 11.266 sec with 4.2 GHz
Very good overclocking Guide for E8400 is HERE
So, any1 here figured out if the software (Cpu-z, SpeedFan, everest..) shows correct voltage with P35-DS3 at Vcore and Vdimm.
I was wondering if I set 1.4v in Bios and it shows me 1.36 idle in Cpu-z, is it real vcore? And also with Vdimm..
I can get my q6600 up to 3.8 stable 12 hrs prime@423x9 but not 475x8. I can run the 2.50 divider and run my memory at higher speeds while using the 9x multi but I have to loose the timmings and my overall performance decrease on all my benchmarks. what gives?
If I run my memory 1:1 (846mhz) with 4-3-4-8 (rest on auto) timmings my scores are higher. I tried to run the 2.50 divider with 4-4-4-12 timmings and systems crashed. I believe the memory speed was 1056mhz.
Which timmings could I use at 1056mhz speeds to avoid crash but still somewhat tight timmings instead of the rated 5-5-5-15?
since 1056mhz still below rated memory speed for my modules.
Any help would be appreciated
Feel free to comment on other settings to adjust
hlo.
and this is my super PI at 4.5ghz, I dont know where is the problem.
E6750 on default has a better time : 19s

I have the same problem on my DS3R, putting +.4 in BIOS only gives me 2.06 +.3 gives me 1.9, cant get more than 2.18 out of this board even when set to +.7 the highest in bios. not easy trying to overclock D9 RAM with that voltage.
Gonna buy a new board, this is my 3rd DS3R already, have RMA'ed the other 2 already, strange thing is the other 2 didn't have this problem :shrug: , if i set +.4 in bios i would get 2.25 in windows. latest one is a revision 2.0 others were 1.0
Yes this is a Rev 2.0 board.
Should I try and RMA it?
What a joke.
I'm not buying a Gigabyte board in the future. The fact that EIST/C1E still doesn't work and C2Ds have been out for over a year and half just really pisses me off. I get a good 3-5C or so lower with temps during idle operation with it enabled. I'm not exactly happy with my CPU idling over 40C when my room is 75F... I bought a DQ6 months ago pretty confident it would be fixed, because I remember it not working on my DS3s.
delta, what is your whole set up??
Problem is exactly the same as i have.
MY setup is,
q6600
Cosair 520hx
crucial ballistix pc2-8500
evga 8800 gt
F11
Does this look off?
This is the EPP profile for my PC2-8500 Crucial Ballistix.
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y62.../pc8500EPP.jpg
I know about how pc2-8500 is actually 6400 etc.
Im talking about the voltage. How for 533, its 2.0v, rather then 2.2v
Yea, I have disabled all power saving options (TM2, C1E, EIST) and no execute too.
Iīve thought that too, but RM clock didnīt confirm throotling.
Do you know some other tool, which can detect cpu throotling?
Both, Intel TAT and throotle watch donīt work.
Oh, and one more question about P35-DS3.. what's the most stable bios? I now have F12..
Delta can you do me a favor?
Can you post what the SPD or EPP profile for your ram is from CPU-Z?
Im kind of curious.
Mine shows for my Ballistix a Voltage for the EPP of 2.0v at 533mhz, i wonder if that has something to do with it?
Other then that, the only thing similar is that we have am evga 8800gt.
Im thinking there is a bad batch of Rev 2.0 boards.
both my EPP profiles list as 2.2v, 400mhz @4 4 4 12 2.2v and 500mhz 5 5 5 15 @ 2.2v mine are the 6400 version though
