Hold the phone!!...Gigabyte P45 news (with pics):
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=184406
We have answers now regarding how Gigabyte were gonna overcome the loss of the PCI bus with the new Intel P45 chipset...by using a ITE IT8213F chipset, it supports 1 IDE connector (2 drives) and one PCI slot, GB are also gonna be using the new Super I/O from ITE, the IT8720F...clear CMOS buttons on the PCB!!!!!!!
Oh man...i have to be doing something wrong :shakes:Quote:

i noticed the same thing with my board, the 2.66D is the most stable strap with performance level 7 ( i can boot up to 467mhz), to bad i have a X38T and need the 4.0 strap to fully use my DDR3-1800 memory... :p:Quote:

ok i did a quick try with F6 (havent done much with testing with F6) and now i can use the 4.0B (still cant get 4.0B to work) strap up to ~470mhz but then my raid 10 array craps out. :p
I think i could go higher if i would use a single HDD.
I need faster memory.
Gotta read this, pics+info of the EP45-DS5:

Maybe that is the Key I have been looking for,, I don't know if I have tried with the 7 or not to go higher then the 435 x 8. I tried with six and 8 maybe,, I can't remember. I will try to push it higher on 7 tonight.Quote:

Ok I got home turned it on and bumped it right up here are my results now. I will bump it up more later when I get home from school..

CPU is a Q6600, Memory is G.Skill PC8000 2x2gb. I thought that I had it stable with the 2.66D strap with these settings but I could not make it 100% stable, which isn't good enough for me for a 24/7 setting. Richard try out these timings as they are as tweaked as I can get them for this speed.
I can't boot with tRFC 50 with my current ram freq., so... be careful with that.Quote:

Go to this site and read and it will help you alot with your settings as they are off and you have tooooo... much voltage going to the cpu!! you have everything I do basicaly check my sig... Here is the site,Quote:

I don't have too much voltage on my cpu.. This is the only way to make it stable at 3.7ghz, and with my cooling I feel that it is safe. It idles at 1.52v, load is 1.48v. I don't think my settings are not off, I just ran Prime95 blend for 9 hours.
Edit: What settings are you saying are off???

Ok you haven't upped your,
Robust Graphics Booster: AUTO
you haven't upped your,
CPU/PCIEX Clock Driving Control : 800mv
You haven't upped your,
PCI-E OverVoltage Control :Normal
You need more,
FSB OverVoltage Control :+0.15v
(G)MCH OverVoltage Control :+0.15v
and probably ,
CPU Voltage Control: 1.54375V
should be like 1.5v tops.
The problem is you need to go back to default optimized settings once you crank the voltage up that high then work your way up to like 3.52 and up your voltage to like 1.3625~ then up it more little by little as needed, with all those other settings fixed first,,, then you will be more stable and using less voltage gurantied.
Ok here is what I could get, it became unstable though. I think need a fan on my chipset / memory I think or, the BIOS is limiting me.
what pci-e voltage is safe? i thought if i added voltage to this it could be bad for my graphics card. that is also why i left the other setting at 800mv.
I told you to read that thread but you didn't believe me. That thread tells you what settings matter to get a easy stable overclock. I just don't want to have to type everything that person typed.
OK.. well i did try everything this thread has said. I have tried up to 0.35v pci-e voltage, 1000mv CPU/PCIEX Clock Driving Control, and 0.25v fsb overvoltage.. 0.2v (g)mch voltage. None of this has helped my overclock in the slightest, I still need the same CPU vcore.. You dont need to type everything the person typed, it really was hardly anything to type at all, and it didn't help anyways.
PCI-E voltage between 105-110MHz is safe, i'd personally be conservative and go on the lower side.
Has anyone tried lower timings for the G.SKILL 4GB 8000CL5D kit?...i tried 5-5-5-12 and everything seemed fine, remember we're talking about overclocked memory in the 1066MHz+ range.
Did you listen to me and load your optimized settings first then start all over working your way up slowly.. Mine becomes unstable after messing with it to much or turning the voltage up high then trying to go lower. This is a fact with my board which is the same as yours and you have the same CPU as me to boot and damn close to same memory as me..Quote:

I'm using 2.50A strap...because it allows me to get closest to 1066MHz memory, the 2.40B strapp gives me 1020MHz...but i get lower bench score in Everest.
If i had faster memory i'm sure i'd kick more butt, waiting for that OCZ 1150MHz 4GB kit to come out!
