Don´t know about X48, it was tested on a P5K3 with a dual, hmmmQuote:

hi ghost do you post this setting of overclocking in to bios please?? do you have updated the setting with 450x9 with ram 1800 7 7 7 21??Quote:

Try Memtest 86+ Ver. 2.11 first.
If Test 0/1/2/3/4/6 didn't have any errors, that's not likely that your mem is the issue.
What I've found so far is sometimes tweaking NB DDR vRef will help stablizing Test 5 (less errors). Test 7 is more likely result in unstable FSB. FYI
After you pass all tests in Memtes 86+, try enter windows and do further testing so as to avoid system file corruption due to miscalculation of the machine :up:
i need the all setting of ram in to bios?? and the setting with 450x9 1800 7 7 7 21 do you updated it?Quote:

Setup for the 450 4x1 1800 CAS7 you find in post 2208 and 450 1800 CAS7 with 2x2Gb I have not tried, i don´t think it gonna work either.
You have to be more specific about what you want, you have all you need in my previous posts.
Ghostleader, have you tried to push your 4x1 d9gtr above 1800?
Yes but volt start to get ridiculus high, specially FSB, PLL, NB and DRAM when I close in on FSB 475, didn´t run any stability test though.
Actually for LGA775 build I'm using 2 kits 1x4GB mixed: Crucial Ballistix C9-2000 / C6-1333 Kits. I think I still can give it a shot if it can reach 1800Mhz...
did a small session today on ln2 and broke few of my personal records :D omg i sooo love this board

which cooler did ya use on the NB Solarfall ? Did it allow you to go way higher than the stock one ? Curently my board is up to 630FSB stable, more till now is an endless quest
its a danger den universal block. i think i have a good board ( or god like skills hahah :D ) but i've been able to get 685fsb out from this board on my E8400 using same sort of set up that i have on the picQuote:

Testing each 2GB module individual to get a nice dual channel pairing! Does voltage scaling for elpida 50mm hyper match X58 or need more vdimm clock for clock on X48 ? Finding reducing NB DDR Vref to minus mv range and advancing DRAM skews helps... so more tinkering
True. But still to reach CAS 8 - 2000Mhz is impossible in X48 for 2GB sticks...Quote:

Yeah i always use memtest first - advancing DRAM skews seem to help too ... will see how far i can go :)
Best of Luck!~ I've already had my fun on this baby and it took me 2 weeks to play and figure out no matter what setting I used C8-2000 is still a no go: Test #5 tonnes of errors. Best tweaking of NB DDR vRef is -22.5~-25mv, while channel A and B vRef doesn't seem to help much, going too far will only make things even worse. I always use Test #5 as an indicator.Quote:

So far testing at DDR3-1860Mhz and working my way up :)
so i just bought an e8600 that supposedly can do 4500mzh at a godly 1.26v stable on a 780i chipset. however, i cannot reproduce these numbers for the life of me on this board. it actually requires 1.3625v to not fail p95 under 30 min, and this is after everything is tuned in the bios. after playing with it a lot, here are my settings, which give better results than any of the board's auto settings. can i please have some help on lowering the vcore a bit?
i doubt this board is so horrible that it requires 1.36v compared to a 780i needing only 1.26v, but i really hope that i'm missing something here rather than being lied to about this chip. any help on settings is greatly appreciated!Code:Processor: e8600

First thing I would do is to step down on the multi to get FSB 450 stable and then go for multi 10
Delay 300ps at both CPU/NB Clock skew doesn´t sound right, try CPU -100, NB Normal or CPU -300ps, NB -100ps or even auto on both.
In which range do have test NB GTL ref? have you tried auto?
Have you tried both CPU, NB GTL ref on auto to see how far you get?
What kind of ram do you use?
for skews, i've tried in different combination ranging from auto to -400 for both CPU and NB. for NB GTL, i've tested from -10 to +70. each time tested, i only vary one thing at a time. yes, i've tried the auto settings and didn't get as far as i did now. i'm using two sticks of 1.65v ballistix tracers rated at 1600mhz 8-8-8-24, so no OC'ing in the memory department yet. i already memtested the memory so make sure the sticks aren't faulty at these speeds. thanks for the suggestions, i'll try them one more time.Quote:

I poped in my Q9650 and began with FSB 450 4,05GHz and 2x1 Dominator 1800C7 but it refuse to boot :shocked: what ever i did except use the XMP profile but then it throw lot of volt, hmmmm, not good.
Well I switch those ram for my 2x2 Transcend and try to boot at 450 1800 CAS8 but no way it would boot, what the :mad:.
Tried with FSB 500 4,0GHz and ram 1600 777 21 2T tRD9 and yes it booted :) and I could run some tests.
I´ll be back with some bandwidth and super Pi if anyone is interested.
Unfortunately, end result wasn't too good http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=226580Quote:

Seriously, it would be nice to compare the two boards with each others with the same kind of quad @ the same FSB, clockspeed and 2x2Gb ram.
This was done with Windows 7 RC 64bit and with no optimizations, a Q9650 @ 500, 4,5GHz and 2x2Gb ram @ 1600 777 21 tRD 9.
Anyone interested.
