@Gam3Ra can you post your system specs,and what make/model is your ram?
P5B Deluxe Rev. 1.03G (C1), updated bios to 0804
Pentium4 540J (16x multiplier, 1MB L2, 800FSB ..)
2x1GB Patriot EPP800 4-4-4-12 (Elpida for sure!)
I have one 256MB AM1, too. It runs the same way - 2.30V
When I put dual channel more than 1.95V its laaaaaaaazy bios (post) and blue screen at windows loading.
The other things are not importantly. The power supply is good
Sorry, double post
I'm not saying this is your problem, but I had to RMA some corsair DDR2 last month because of an issue like that. It would boot and run fine (no errors in memtest) @ 1.8 volts, which the mobo defaults to. However, when I changed it to 2.1v (Corsair's spec for those sticks of ram), memtest gives errors all over the place on one of them. Your problem could be something like that. Try memtest on them one stick at a time with manufacturer specs set in the BIOS and see what happens.Quote:

I will now reboot and try to push the northbridge voltage....
@kakulukia
when u run 9x400 with DDR2 500mhz, whats your NB voltage and your memory timings?
Rise the NB voltage to 1.55V, the Vdimm to 2.10V - blue screen and dont want to boot now at dual channel, no way... :stick: The memory at another motherboard is running dual channel 2.2V no problems, it's NOT from the memory.

When u run higher than 400 (>401), the cpustrap changes which results in lower bandwidth (u can test it byurself by testing the memory bandwidth at 400 and 401, u shall see a difference)
I run 500 dram because my rGskill hz's can take it easily (it can go higher upto 580). IT only requires 2.15V (bios) 2.1V (real).
My NB voltage is 1.55V, and it definetely needs it. When i set to 1.45V, it is stable but not ROCK stable (~~90% stability:p: ).
My timings are 5-4-4-12 , i am too lazy to tighten them and cuz i dunno the subtimings etc.
where can I download the BETA 0903 BIOS? Anyone else use this yet? Like it? Does it fix the PCIE 16x issue
I know its not my ram holding my back Right now their running @ 966MHz 4-4-4-4 1:1. Their TeamXtreem D9. Now I tried running @ 400MHz and it was a no go even though My ram was clocked lower so i dont think thats the problem. Maybe I should buy a DS3 and test it out for a while?
Any evidence on that? I'm running @ 430mhz 4/5 on this board (mem @ 1075) with absolutely no probs...Quote:

The 0903 bios is beta, dont use it, many xp bad things, stick with 0804. Wait till asus offically releases its new bios.
2Inteleron
The DS3 has issues with micron chips around 450, so that isnt an option.
Did u also try with spd timings ?
I am also running 4:5, its Ok.
I can tell you guys it's true that 4:5 requires a lot more voltage and it's not wort h it.
I was running 3.2ghz 8x400 4:5 and I need to pump the cpu up with like 1.4v and nb with 1.45v if I remembered correctly. Now I'm running 1:1 3ghz 6x500 1:1, cpu @ v1.25, nb @ 1.2v. 1:1 is much better. Anything with 4:5 will require a lot of unnecessary voltage.
Thanks for the response bro... You are the first person to reply to a thread that I wrote in here. I was about to give up:( Im getting this board in a few days, I'll make sure I plug in those settings and hope that I get 16x speeds. Thanks again bro.....Quote:

Depends on cpu/multi, mem and cooling used dont you think? Fact is 4/5 is rather hard and not necessarely best. On phase 4/5 wont help you on 965 with low multi cpu and most ram..Quote:

Well with that e6300 running 2mb of L2 and that X850 vid card there, you will be lucky to beat any conroe user in anything, you might get away on a superpi. But no 3d mark, pcmark, everest cpu tests or ram tests. A ocd allendale loses because of its L2. And allendales generally hit 500fsb better than any of the conroes, what multi are you using? bet its not 3.6ghz on 400fsb 4:5 DDR2 1000 you cant beat that with your setup in anything. So its a lil ignorance on your part to say that just because your running 500 1:1 on an allendale that you will smoke anyone using a 400 4:5. Id like to see your benches compared to mine.Quote:

Theres my PCMark at 3.6ghz 4:5 on 400fsb. Lets see some of your numbers and see how your guarantee holds up.
EDIT: from your sig I see your running a 7x at 3.5ghz. Do a PCmark05 run of your rig and lets compare.
PCMark05 run today. lets see what you got on your Allendale ;)

There are a lot of variables to run 4:5 with any consistency.
Like Loc.o stated it depends on your cooling …Ram … and CPU along with a few other tinkerings.
I must admit luck plays a part in any oc.
I run 4:5 and have since I transplanted the geil for the SuperTalent ram @ 2.15 volts 1.45 Northbridge. 24/7 3.6 GHz
All I can say is run what you can and if you’re not satisfied just keep trying combinations of settings and resets until you’re at your best stable oc.
Bios 0804 to me is very stable and I wouldn’t try 0903 until asus releases the bios with all the trimmings.

There is A difference, but not A big difference.
I dont agree with the point '' it requires more volt''. Offcourse, ur memory needs little bit more, most of the time northbridge too, but it isnt true that it also inflicts the cpu (vcore). No way, i need to run 1.500V@1:1, and the same when i run 4:5.
LAtely, i did some games benching to this point (1:1 vs 4:5), and the results where almost the same.
I concluded, setting a higher divider /more memory bandwidth, does NOT effect the game (=framespersecond, fps) so much (maybe a little bit but not 2considerable).
some help here dudes.
I just got my mobo , with a 2 gb g skill kit pc800 HK and a fine 6400.
On my firt tests i could get as far as 3.75 and a fsb over 470 ...so i decided to update the bios, and that's when my problems began.
i tried 0804, 0711 a many others but all of them can get me as far as 450 fsb non stable. I can even set my mem timmings. no matter what values i use the pc won't post. so obvisly i'm getting some kind of weird bug here.
The bad news is....i forgot to look what was my original bios that could get me those dandy 470 .....i have the impression that was a 05 something....probably 0514, but i can't find it to test it.
Could anyone halp me with this ?
p5bdlx ---> bioshttp://support.asus.com/download/dow...Language=en-us
Note, all biosses clock the same. I still advice u 0804 .
well....i believed the mobo came with a 0514...i posted fine at 475...now i cant even get a stable 450 !
I searching the web for that 0514 and see if it works....
the 0804 is not fine for me.
what about that 0806 ? is it for the non deluxe version ?
