DO you know if the ek suprem is compatible with mofsets radiator of the extreme ????
thx and sorry for my bad english :D
Hi , i just started-up my new pc .
My sistem is : Asus maximus extreme , q9450 (with Thermalight ifx-14 + Scythe Ultra Kaze 120 mm 3000 rpm) , corsair ddr3-1600mhz 2x2giga , etc the rest not important maibe the case : thermaltake v5000 or spire SP-9007B, i tested with bouth of them , in SPIRE temps are lower with 3*-5* and now im using the spire case (with and Scythe SCKB-1000BK mounted in front of the case).
My question is what temp are corect , i used all sorts of programs but all show diferent temp, and what temp should i consider : THE main CORE TEMP or THE 4 core temps ?
And what program shows the good tems?
U can see my temps in the link below:
overclock : 3200 mhz
http://imajr.com/3200oc-1107084
[IMG]http://thumbnails.imajr.com/3200oc-1107084.JPG[/IMG]
Default :2660mhz

Ps: can someone post the default voltages that are in bios , mine are all on auto and i dont know what are good ones to set them manualy
Hi guys. I'm having problems with the USB ports of my motherboard.
I have a G15 Logitech Keyboard, the one which has lights in every key. When I'm playing Call of Duty 4 or any other game, the keyboard suddenly turns off, the game turns slow, the keyboard is unresponsive and after about 10 seconds the keyboard works fine again. It also happens when I'm not playing. I don't know what to do because I'm using the latest drivers for everything and the keyoboard works fine in other computers.
I'm using 1007 BIOS and the only overclocked thing I have is the FSB. 450MHz for 1800MHz DDR3.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
Quick Tip -
I just tried installing Vista x64 retail on Rig 2 in my sig - 2x 2GB Dominator 1800. dimms in blue slots, and i got all sorts of errors and bsods, so i put the 2x 2GB dimms in the white slots, and i haven't had an issue since.
I hope that helps someone
BTW: Sorry if this has already been said - i didn't see it :)
@Lloyd :
Easy solution :
Just install 2GB RAm first / then install Vista + SP1 / afterwards install your other 2GBs.
Yeah that was next on my list to try, but both dimms in the white slots, worked perfectlyQuote:

news about 1102 bios??
Yes i too would like to hear if any fsb improvements are to be gained.Quote:

In the slots with high-MHz you got to set command rate to "2t"... otherwise you got BSODs.
Ahhh, u learn something new everyday. I didn't know that. Thanks mateQuote:

on Bios 1102
having spent the last few months with Bios 1004, I gave a shot at 1102 for the last few days, and I gotta say, its not good.
now the bios tends to want to run PL12 at 530+ on the FSB.
where with 1004 I been running PL9.
with 1102 PL9 wont even make it into windows at 520+.
plus I am now getting random freezes, from the same overclock I been running for months now.
9 x 533 now freezes randomly. (4.8 ghz sub zero cooled)
simply put 1102 just isnt very good.
its slower, and unstable.
I'd suspect they fiddled with the chipset latencies or something to make it faster at low FSB's and sacrificed high FSB performance.
or something like that.
thats just a guess however.
back on 1004 bios today, and all is good again.
I spent about 3 days on 1102 before calling it quits.
Hy again , i have an isue with asus maximus extreme,
Q9450(thermalight ifx-14), asus maximus extreme (bios 1102), corsair 2x2giga 1600mhz (CM3X2g1600c9DHX).
1 i whanted to test how much can u OC without any voltage , so i manualy put all voltages on default , you can see may settings on bios :
-Ai overclock tune = manual
-OC mem lev up= auto
-cpu ratio set= 8.0
-FSB frecv= 333
-pci frecv= 100
-ddram frecv = ddr1333mhz
-ddram command rate = 1t
-ddram timing control= manual
-cash# latency = 9
-ras# to cas# latency =9
-ras# precharge = 9
-ras# active time=24
-ras# to ras# delay = 4
-row refresh cycle time = 60
-write ricovery time = 9
-read to precharge time =6
-read to write delay (s/d)= 9
-write to read delay (s)= 5
-write to read delay (d)= 6
-read to read delay (s)= 4
-read to read delay(d)=7
-write to write delay (s)=4
-write to write delay (d)=7
-ddram static read control = auto
-dram dynamic write control=auto
i know this 2 u have to disable them , but in my configuration if i set them on disable i cant enter in windows ( sistem freeze before enter windows)
-Ai clock twister = strong
-ai clock skew for chanel A = auto
-ai clock skew for chanel B = auto
-Ai transaction booster = enable
-Boost level=2
-Cpu voltage 1.24375v
-cpu ppl voltage = 1.52v
-north bridge voltage= 1.41v
-ddram voltage = 1.8v
-Fsb termination voltage= 1.24v
-south bridge = 1.09v
-Loadline calibration = enable
-Cpu gtl reference= x63
-north bridge gtl reference = x67
-ddr3 chanel A+B REF voltage = auto
-ddr3 controller REF voltage = ddr3_REF
-sb 1.5 voltage = auto
So with this settings (the ram secont and 3-th set of timings are a little high in comparation to default ones because i was aiming and oc from 1600 to 1800mhz) , and i was surprised to se that sistem is stable at 400fsb , 1600mhz for ram , all tests fine , temperatures where same at 333fsb.
My next step was to aim for 1800mhz for ram , i modifie voltages and wasnt able to enter windows:
-Cpu voltage= 1.43125v
-cpu ppl voltage= 1.5v
-ddram voltage=2.06v (tryed 1.82 , 1.84 . ....2..06v)
-FSB termination volt= 1.54
-south bridge=auto
Then was i try boot with the default manual set settings at 425fsb@1700mhz for ram , sistem boot but in 3dmark2006 failed ; again set the oc voltages , and i couldnt get it stable.
So i thought my ddram3 is a sssssssshhhhhtttttty ram dont work stable upper then 1600mhz.
I try change : DDRAM FRECV = DDR3_1066 mhz , so when in i cand oc fsb high the 425 without passing the 1600mhz ddram barier.
The problem is when i modifie ddr3_1333 to ddr3_1066 (with all timings set to manual) all my timing are lowered by bios automaticaly (all of them)
"WTF" is that and again sistem wont enter windows , i try set them manualy but they dont work :mad: .
So now im stuck ,any hlp plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, sugestions etc.
Ps: sry for my bad english.
(and i have another less bothering isue , i conected the front audio and microfone case jaks to maximus extreme audio card , but they dont work , WTF)

hi guys just wanted to post my bios results and setting for my E8500 on my maximus extreme, for some reason my board will no longer post with 4gb of ram it hangs on "DET DRAM" and every stick works alone and 3GB will work, but 4GB is a no go. batch# is Q740A518 for my E8500. the bios revision is 1004

I decided to try a new approach, I have never had any luck with this board and q9450 untill now .
400 fsb ratio divider system wont boot into windows .
333 system boots into windows and freezes.
266 system boots into windows and works for a few minutes then freezes.
200 divider system boots into windows and runs bench 10 x loop 3dmarks 06 successful, bench 3D Marks Vantage on extreme settings x 4 times successful, play Age of Conan on High settings MSAA X4, for 2 hours nps.
To me the trick was the 200 FSB ratio divider, it is allso giVen me better Badwidth using this divider in Everest well at least better Write and Copy badwidth than I have had with any divider using my G0 stepping.
My settings are FSB 450, Multi 8X Loadline calibration on, all voltages are on Auto except for my Vcore, it is set at 3.875 in the bios, My ram speed is 1800 mhz.
Anyway good luck, I just wanted to share my success.

With this default settings i try to rise fsb and surprised sistem boot @400fsb and even @450fsb (but not stable some programs like nvidia driver , bitdefender 2008 , logitech driver worked bad)
I try test more at 425 , the probrams worked fine at start-up pc , but in 3dmark2006 textures were wrong
So go lower @400fsb (here all worked fine but after 1 hour maibe 2 i get blue screens , i even get blue screens @ 333fsb but rare)
So i continued test @400fsb , i use higher voltages :
-Cpu voltage 1.24375v ( with default and i got blue screen after 1 hour temp@71*c , and then 1.35v but again cpu freezed after about 15 min , temperatures rised to 77*c)
-cpu ppl voltage = 1.60v
-north bridge voltage= 1.40v
-ddram voltage = 1.84v
-Fsb termination voltage= 1.40v
-south bridge = 1.100v
I tought maibe is a ddram problem so i lower DDram from 1333 to 1.066 and again rise fsb to 400-410 , same result blue screen
so now im stuck again,
i go try with the 200 FSB ratio now
i posted the other setting in my bios , i tought it might be from them , maibe i got one wrong PLZ if someone can confirm them are wright
hi...
i have buy this motherboard....
which is the best bios for Spi 1m (better time) ?
and Vdroop Mod exists ?
Have anyone tested the maximus with all pci-e slots filled?
I´m thinking of going for 3 x 3850 or 3 x 3870 just becuse I can =). I´ve read several reviews were its stated that the third card wont do much of a difference, but maybe the maximus can make better use of them?
They are selling 3870:s with 850 mhz core for as low as 130 usd here in sweden at the moment. Ever since I got my maximus extreme I´ve seen a inner picture of three 3800:s crossfired there in the case, and with these prices I almost can afford it. I´m sure alot of you gonna say, Get a 4850 insted or get a 4870 , but anyway have any one tried 3x3800 with this mobo?

Yeh, I know. Probobly gonna have to buy a single slot card and get some nice airflow around it. I got about 10 x 120 mm fans in my case so I got plenty of airflow :)
Maybe, I will go for 3 x single slot 3850:s, If I get the cheapest I can find i´ll end up at 100 USD per card. i´m so damn curiouse about tweaking a system like that. If the performance doesnt improve from 2 -3 card I can always put the third card on ebay.
I've tried three with several drivers(8.4,8.5 and 8.6). The third gives a small boost in 3d 06 mark(23000 /w Q6600 @3.9GHz) but causes stuttering in all games I've tried. I'm back with two 3870's(22000 3d06) and happier now.
Thats was both good and bad news. Of course its cheaper with two cards, hope that ati will fix the tripple crossfire problem soon., would be very cool to get some gaming performace from the third card too :rolleyes:
Thanks very much for your reply!
I´will settle with two cards for now, maybe i´ll get a third later, will post my results here in that case :yepp:
I would take a guess and say its more board related than anything else, 16 x 8x8 doesnt sound like a good combo to me, but AMD boards are another beast and more geared towards triple and quad crossfire, shame there Cpus are lacking in the performance realm for the moment.Quote:

Thanks for the guide!
fng77... with reference to the notion that you may still be interested in the tri-fire set up.. I would wait for great evidence that the arrangement will work (3850,3870,4850 or 4870) because I was the point man for this experiment and my only recourse was to use my spare card in a back-up/family system. This was not such a bad thing. Just the best choice.
arsz
Yes, I am stil interested in the Tripple xfire topic. I will get my first card today a Gecube HD3870 core 850, mem 1950 gddr3. My intentions are to get two more within a couple of weeks or so, I will keep you informed about my progress :up:
I am wondering if there are any hidden dividers / ratios in the bios, is any bios guru able to unlocdk any or see if there are some?
I am noticing some very strange behavior with the dividers, the memory seems to run best way below spec , 16-10 and 12-10 seem to be the best ratios but this makes the memory run way under rated speeds. my memory is @ 1314mhz atm and its rated @ 1866 but this divider seems to give the best results in everest read and writes and latency.
If those are default voltages why does the bios report 1.42v on the northbridge when set to auto? Is this board just overvolting the crap out of the NB on it's own?Quote:

Was it so bad that Asus deleted it? Or is it only avalibe to some parts of the market? :confused:
has anyone flash the maximus extreme with the rampage extreme bios?
maximus formula with the rampage formula works fine but maximus extreme with rampage extreme?
the 1102 bios is for q6600 very bad. back to 1007. that was the best bios for me. but i have probs with my g15 with this bios in games.
with the 1007 i can run my q6600 @ 8x450 an my corsair dominator 1800@ 7-7-7-20 24/7 prime stable @watercooling.
Yes you can flash maximus extreme with rampage extreme bios but you can not change volts.Quote:

2 completely differant boards in this case , voltage regulation is not even remotely related , due to the 12 phase cpu 3 phase NB and 3V Fujitsu chips on the Extreme. Not worth the effort in my book i doubt you would see any gains even if you could adjust the voltages due to the huge variations in the 2 boards.Quote:

wow how long was it up? I check asus daily and have not seen it.
ahh its still there but on another link http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=850 i think it just has an update to the micro code to support the e8600
have anyone on his maximus extreme a ati 4870x2?
ich have big problems with this card. the system hangs in bios after 1min. furmark hangs on after 1min....
please help
been running 2gb of ocz pc3-16000 oc73p2000eb2gk @ 1761 with q6600 @3.97
but by adding another 2gb it wont post @3.6
tried 1004/1102/1104 bios
tried upping nb voltage to 1.71v
have you tried raising dram voltage
yes upto 1.94 (2v) actual
the evp on this mem is 1.85v
result
got it post @
440 fsb x9
3.97
1408 ddr3 @ 8.8.8.24
static readand trans boost disabled relax lev3
row refresh 110
nb 1.65v
been on ocz support forum
and its a ram limitation of 1500mhz with 4 sticks of ram with this board which is a bit disapointing
wonder if we'll get any newer bioses for maximus to improve fsb as the rampage seem to do 600fsb pretty easily with the e8600s whereas the maximus struggles at much more than 500 fsb
I wish I still had my screenshots of my E8500 (R.I.P.) had that sucker up just past 550 fsbX9.5 on my extreme, it's all in the GTL's and your nb volts should always be just a tad higher than your FSB termination volts and she'll fly up. Or are you talking about just on the E8600?
the max i ever had was on phase cooling which was 540fsb see the cpuz in my sig but anything above 520 and its flakey, wheras the rampage board is getting 600+ fsb virtually on auto settings and the rampage is x48 which is just a higher binned x38 so hopefully a new bios will unlock some extra fsb
Thats wierd but it dont surprise me much, at least with this board we dont have to deal the the p5q3dlx issues they have like 100 pages of problems and it's only a few months old. BTW can anyone tell me where the damn bios chip on this board is? maybe it's right in front of my face and I'm just not seeing it, but it is pissing me off trying to find it.Quote:

Hi all,
Bare with me on this as this is the 1st upgrade i’ve had in 3 years
Last week i bought.
Asus Maximus Extreme Intel X38
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler
Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 2.40GHz (Meant to be able to OC at 3.30GHZ
Corsair 2GB DDR3 DHX 1333C9DHX Twin3
I have never overclocked before i want to try and achieve 3.20GHZ if i can as some games need it (according to Steam anyway)
Could someone tell me step by step how to do this!
Thanks Mp4
hey guys,
My friend just bought this motherboard.... it posts fine and boots up windows but when it goes through the "found new hardware" stage but then it locks up when it reaches "usb controller" Any help would be much appreciated!!

If you want to get to 1800 u need "much" more Vnb.
And I realised that with the tighter timings the RAM-performance is even better than @ 1800 @ 8-7-6-18.
Hi all
has anyone fitted the Enzotech MST-81 Mosfet Heatsink in this board? The spring pins must fit the holes but i'm asking just to be sure if anyone has done it.
Thanks

thankyou simri.
never had a problem with your modded bios's
:)
Any suggestions for the best/most stable BIOS for my QX9650?
Was on 1007 and just flashed to 1104 and getting some frquent errors on Prime that I didnt on 1007.
Please.....
Thanks
i have been using 1102 for a few months without fault. 380*10 @ 1.368 volts rock stable.
using simri modded 1202 now.
the maximus extreme doesnt like high fsb unless north bridge is well pumped up @ 1.55volts. (currently at 1720 @ 1t)
just bought new corsair 1800 mhz to replace my ocz 1333 which doesnt like above 1521 @ 2t
memory: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=187853
be sure your northbridge temp isnt too high , eg: anything above 50 is considered too high.

The QX9650 in at 450x9(4050) @ 1.44v with the corsair ram you linked to at 1800Mhz- 1.89v @8-8-8-24-2T.
I was 19 hours prime stable and memtest rock solid on 1007 but since I flashed to 1104 I fail blend prime after an hour or so.
Thats why I am trying to find a good BIOS that is tried and tested so any help would be good.
Would appreciate any advice.
PS. If I want to flash back to the 1007 can I do that via the ASUS update in windows or will it not allow me to flash to an older version??

Hi to everybody.
I have a question for simri.
Is there a modded bios for asus p5e3 premium Wi-Fi-Ap@n?
Is it possible to crossflashing the p5e3 to rampage, even if the layout is different?
Thanks, happy new year.
thanks simri fot the last bios ;)
I have a little problem, maybe someone could give their opinion. I recently upgraded my Watercooling to include VRM's and Aftermarket NB Waterblock. Also included from previous is CPU Waterblock. I've two Double Rads, so plenty of cooling. I had previously been able to get 4.275 from CPU, but was a little unhappy with temps. Hence the upgrade. All temps are below 30 idle..CPU, MB, NB, SB. My problem is that since the rebuild I've moved house, and since moving the PC has decided to be fussy about booting. It can take several attempts. The Pc starts, lights on MB, the Fans Start, but nothing onscreen, nor does Keyboard light up (G15). The Fans run a little faster than when running, I guess bios hasn't kicked in yet. Several attempts later it can start, occasionally it will start first go?
I've ran memtest and OCCT to test memory and OC, and it's fine. When it's running there are no problems, never crashes?
I've tried swapping PSU from second PC, tried different Bios's but only stable with 1001 at this speed. Also tried reducing OC, and increasing a few voltages?
Anyone any ideas?
Note. I've only attached little boot display today, so can't comment on that yet!

Hello!!
First of all v.nice forum :up:
But i got a major problem with my mobo after last bios update, the flashing went wrong. When i booted i got a black screen telling me to insert a usb or dvd with extreme.rom, so i renamed the latest one to extreme.rom and tried it, but it didnt work, so i inserted the dvd that came with the board. Then it started to flash. I rebooted, and the only thing that comes up is a black screen. No bios post at all.
So any1 here know what to do? RMA? :shocked:
Great stuff, Simri!

Guys I had a problem with my x38 p53e3 dlx wifi crashing in vista 64 when resuming from sleep. I thought it was the board because I tried every ram setting under the sun but the ram is good. I switched to x48 rampage extreme and same crap. E8200 and crossfire. I'm not sure what the hell is wrong? Anyone with a similar rig lemme know your settings. I'm on 1104 bios
Hello all,
I have a big problem with my Raid0-Matrice :
- i'm currently using WinVista 64
Motherboard Asus Maximus Extreme, chipset X38
Processor : Intel Q9450
2 X HDD 750 GB, Samsung Spinpoint F1, 753 LJ ( in Raid 0 configuration stripe, i got this error, first @128KB, and now @64KB )
I had this error two times, the second one today.
The actual error is : the Intel Matrix Storage Controller shows on one of the HDDs an red "X" and at the status : " Error occured " and advises me to make a back-up of my data.
http://www.upload.ro/show.php?img=30...raid-0eror.jpg
http://www.upload.ro/3039/1809/93123raid-0eror.jpg
When i restarted my PC, on the screen from the Bios that shows the Intel Matrix Storage Manager option, it shows one of my HDDs with status " Member Disk ( 0 )" with green colour, and the other one with " Error occured (0) " with a red colour.
http://www.upload.ro/show.php?img=30...56DSC01852.JPG
http://www.upload.ro/3039/1809/93056DSC01852.JPG
The first time, i got it when i tried to execute a game ; i tried to check hard disks, then defrag them, then delete one by one the partitions and create them again, but i still had the error from the Bios boot screen. Then a tried to reset Bios, upgrade Bios, downgrade Bios, with no positive result.
I had to copy all my data on another HDD and then deleted my old Raid0 Matrice, and create another one.
After this, i got rid of both the errors, and my PC worked ok for 1-2 months untill today when i had the same error when UTorrent was uploading a file.
If anyone can help me with this problem, please let me know !
P.S: Its really strange, because all my partitions are working fine, i can download, upload, like nothing is wrong.
Thank you and waiting for your help !
I even let intel matrix storage to scan for erors ,didnt find any exept some media.
