I was going to but my results are so good with the default bios i dont see the need right now.
I had to use a blow dryer and some towels on each side of the NB cooler to get it off, it was bonded with some kind of epoxy. Runs a ton cooler now and the 70mm fan I put on it blows good on the back of the 8800GTX. I feel like I cheated death doing this.

So happy with X38 and get back DDR3 on main rig ( bye bye X48 nightmare :p:) bios 1001
less than a day to get stable :rofl:
with summer coming , just running 3.6ghz 1.11v
good bye BSOD, random reboots , IE7 freezes booting after express gate uuuhh and still able to go for crossfire 2 x 16 later :rolleyes:

Got the board above the 440Mhz barrier. X3350 is running at 3.54Ghz, 1.41 volts, rock solid stable. Couldn't post the OCCT and other PI run because the GF closed them down. :(
Time to do another run! :D

Can you please post your bios settings?
I swapped out the Intel stock cooler for a tt Blue Orb II I got here http://www.thermaltakeshop.com/ref/ref-cooler.html (great prices I use them alot as of late). I was nervous about removing the stock NB cooler so I just tightened down the screws abit and hoped for the best. The Blue Orb covers the first to dimms but with a little dexterity I can still remove them. After the base attatchments its easy to remove and reinstall without motherboard removal. I had errors plugging it into the cpu fan header so I just plugged it in to a molex w/adapter. Even at full speed I barely here it at all. My gpu runs louder. I just got a new digital camera to replace my stolen one, so i will shoot some beauty pics tommorrow.
No can do. Had to drop it back down to 3.2Ghz. Crashed after 13 hours of Prime95.
I'm going to lap the TRUE and all the heatsinks on the board, apply a rice spot of AS Ceramique on each contact point and retest.
My water cooling gear will be here within the next week so I should be able to push it at least back-up to where it was if not further.

Dumb? This is XS, where every mhz counts :D when benching.Quote:

Here it is 95 degrees here today and even though I am water cooled I have had to turn it al the way down to the 4600MHZ range to bench.
good grief.. 65 pages of mostly whining but.....if you read close you would have maybe learned how to get the most from your systems.
you don't need to flash it to something else. you need to put together the right pieces as with anyboard. If you put parts together that weon't blend to give you the best chance for speed
that is NOT the board's fault!! I suggest you sell the damn thing. And start putting the wrong parts on some other system to :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: about.

Yeah benching at these sucky speeds is a real :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:.

Damn this miserable board!!:rofl:
WZ
Has anyone used/tried the "new" 702 BIOS? Any major changes? Currently planning on getting a E7200 to replace my E6420:P
WeldZilla, I am talking about the 45nm quad ( Q9450 X3350 ) and the 450 fsb wall. Now if you can get either of those quads to 450 and over on a P5E board I will say I am sorry to you the Zilla dude.
Just wondering for a friend - Can you flash the P5E Deluxe to the Rampage bios? or does it only work on the P5E?
Rampage bios's work fine, even gain better mem bandwidth.....:cool:
Does anyone know if the P5E3 Deluxe Wifi is more stable than the Premium Variant? Also, does the Deluxe work well with the OCZ 1600Mhz Platinum 2x2GB RAM?
I haven't looked in a while, but has Asus released a BIOS yet that fixes that damn 4:5 memory divider on the P5E? Just about everything after 107 seems to be giving my 2x2Gb G.Skill PC8000 kit a major headache. I'm running a Q6600 at 400x9, and the 4:5 divider flat out refuses to POST, the 5:6 divider (960 MHz) doesn't even pass memtest at 2.1v (this is with all timings and the FSB strap on Auto, 1.45v on the NB, and all other voltages up a notch). But it'll do 1:1 at 1.8v all day long, so I don't think the RAM is bad.
So am I missing some setting or other, or what? I'm currently using 605, if that makes any difference.
Eller
I had 4:5 and 5:6 working with Q6600 with bios 502 without too much tweaking.

I'm looking for a good set of DDR2 1066mhz (4GB) that can overclock to 1200mhz - either 2x2gb or 4x1 gb kits for vista 64 bit running on Asus P5E
I was looking at g skill 2x2gb kit (1066), can this be overclocked to 1200 mhz?
OR, whats the best 1066 or 1200 4 gb kit for my asus p5e on vista 64 ?
Thanks
Ok riddle me this gentlemen.. So I build a new system using a p5e. I installed a q6600, overclocked to 3.2ghz from 2.4ghz. I stablilty tested the system for 3 days using occt, prime, memtest blah blah. stable as could be. I packed up the system and dropped it off at a friends house. I started the pc up and its booting at 2.4ghz. I go into the bios and the fsb freq is set at 356 which gives me 3.2ghz. I reboot and it still posts at 2.4ghz. Even in windows it shows 2.4ghz. Any fsb I move it do even below the stock 266mhz, it still shows 2.4ghz. I can change the ram speed and that stays but not the fsb. I cleared the bios but didnt have a chance to install version 702 again. Anyone have any idea why this does this or how to fix it?
thanks
Try disabling C1E in the bios. This is throttling and could be your issue.Quote:

flashed my p5e to the 403 rampage bios today and upon restart it is dead, no post at all , nothing , fans run but monitor is blank (no signal) , has any one got a solution to overcome this problem?, i have cleared cmos, removed battery , stripped the board bare, still nothing. any help would be much appreciated. cheers
