Man, the most i can increase my pci-e is to 105-106, it will BSOD anything higher than that... P5E was able to run 115 no issues.....:shakes:
Same here, when I first got the board I set 110 and no boot, best I can do for 471FSB is 105, even 106 results in a post hang
Maximus X38 can do 110-112 up to 505FSB
To me that's the most annoying and unacceptable bug of this mb...
I'm used running all my boards @ 110mhz pcie and this really sucks for a board of its class... :down:
I really think that Asus should offer up an a apology to all the MIIF owners, it really says something about a company that slaps a 300 price tag on a 80 dollar board, but hey those red heatsinks make up for it :rofl: and lets not forget the lovely night light included with your motherboard:ROTF:
Half the bios options do not work 100%, the lack of functioning pull-ins is dissapointing, they were a real nice performance boost on the X38 board.
3 bug'd bios release in a row is pathetic at best, DFI and Gigabyte is looking better everyday.
I'm about to drop $400 on a X58 board Rampage II Extreme but I'm really having a hard time supporting Asus atm
Agreed, I have been a long time Asus fan but after this MB I am rethinking my next purchase. When a $140.00 MB can outshine this $280-300 board then RoG is more like RoC. :shakes:Quote:

The most annoying for me is the VNB-vTT<0.11. I spend 4 days and nights to make my system stable @lower voltages..and every time i PWER on it hungs (CMOS, load profile ..blah blah blah ..)..:mad::mad:Quote:

Asus won't get the message if you give them more of your money.
I would not buy one if I were you, it is almost certain that the memory trace design of the P6T is superior to the trace design of the Rampage II Extreme. This is most likely to be the reason for the P6T clocking ram better than the Ramapge II Extreme. Asus are most likely going to revise the trace design of the R2E so be the same as the P6T hopefully correcting the problem. At least wait until this has been done and the revised design boards have been released.Quote:

That looks like it should be ok, except for the fact you are using the wrong type of memory for high FSB. A few people find that your ram cannot overclock past DDR2-1110 to DDR2-1120 with 100% stability (bench yes, stable no), so you may be at the limit of your ram. You have more than enough vNB and vcore etc for 565 FSB, the weakest link and most likely cause is your ram.
Do you have any other ram that you know does more than DDR2-1130 stable you can try?
EDIT - also try and play with the ram skews & NB GTL Ref, also perhaps try 'delay 300ps' on both the CPU & NB see if that helps at all.
I have no issues with PCI-E at 101 regardless of FSB but as George said give 100 a go.
@Nevin
Set PCIE to 100 mate..:D
No but I was able to set 8x600 with Vddr=2,35v and even pass 1M superP (9,28), that's why I think 4,5ghz is attainable. But I can try 8,5x533 to be sure if it's the RAM.
Yes use a lower FSB and a divider to push the ram up to where you want to be at 1:1 and stress test it - it may be bench stable at 560 - 600 (i have seen Dinos22 do this with your kit) but it was not properly stable.
Well guys seems that the MF2 asked me for all lower values than my P5K deluxe...It would be nice that someone post it settings for a Q9650 B batch vid 1,25 as mine so i can see the differences
I started to prime to check stability, all tests are on 26,2C room temp with mems 1:1
4005 (445x9) idle 1,288 load 1,304

Cryptik has taken the time to make a thread dedicated to GTL's perhaps you should take the time to read through it.Quote:

Greetings,
Recently I replaced a dead P5W DH deluxe with the M2F. With the P5W I was able to overclock my Q6600 G0 to 3.4GHZ with 24/7 stability for over a year before my motherboard died. The M2F has a great deal of BIOS settings for the overclocker, however the manual doesn't give a detailed explanation of each setting. I have searched the this awesome forum as well as other to get my OC to 3.6Ghz, however it is not 100% stable. I am able to run Prime, Orthos, Everest successfully without any errors, but at times I get the BSOD with trying to put my virtual machine in suspend mode, or attaching certain USB hard drives with a NTFS.SYS error. I would like to get some opinions / suggestions on :
- voltage settings
- DRAM Skew settings
- Mem OC charger / Twister / Booster
- PCIE fREQ
- CPU and Mem GTL References
- various CPU settings
Here is my current BIOS settings:

4x1GBs will be hard on the NB, I would lean towards upping the NB voltsQuote:

There is my first shot :

So tell me where I am :mad: ...diggin' this night with yours tips ;)
Yes I agree, as Grnfinger suggested, raise FSBT & VNB, I'd suggest putting 1.30v for both of them to begin with.
