ASUS Maximus II Formula - new P45 king?
-
sweet pwr/rst buttons ;-)
-
New function of LCD Poster first shown with this motherboard. We can select in BIOS what to be shown - temperatures, voltages or RPM's :) Nice!

High hopes for 600+ FSB for Wolfdales.
Yorkfield quite common.

Jeebus what's with the heatsinkery? Got a Crosslinx chip under there or something?
-
Seems stock NB & Mosfets heatsinks are removable without removing heatpipes!
Sweat, but do you think MCW30 & MIPS P5E Mosfets waterblocks will fit on top of heatpipe?
-
must have one...! i'm waiting here...
-
-
Do you know the release date & approx $$ yet?
-
P45 has one disadvantage which is odd PL :(

For trusty B2 Conroe, 480FSB seems to be stable, 485 now i see too, but 490 - no go :(

Next week probably it hit stores around the globe :up:

2 Vcores? one for booting and one as actual working volts? Or what is it?
I think I'll get one, I know, I should stop spending money, but somehow that board is taunting me:p:

p45's are starting to come out. pmp, did you buy this board or was it a prototype that you're testing?

Let's flash its BIOS in our Maximus/Rampage Formula I to get more performance, LOL....
I'm sure that will work!

In ya dreams it will :rofl:
Give us some more teasers PMP plz :D Make me sell my P5Q Dlx :rolleyes:

Looks great... I'm interested in one if it is proven to overclock a Q9450 better and will use the same blocks I have on my current Maximus Formula.

Actually with those settings, PL11 worked, PL10 didn't. Tommorow i will flash it with latest BIOS, which should behave alike those from P5Q Series, and we'll see.
Yup, 1:1 makes PL Poo Poo :(

It's retail version already.

I'm not sure yet. Dual VCore is available only when it's from 0,80V > 0,95V then it disappear. Maybe it's wise, for those who will run cold CPUs like E72xx or E82xx with passive cooling, underclocked, when one core wouldn't go with low VCore as other one ? :)

Tommorow i will use Wolfdale cored chip to see how it performs...

I thought this board is DDR2 but your CPUZ shows DDR3 so this board is going to 2 or 3? Plus I wonder when will this be out can't wait? Oh by the way the CPU volt pin is that require 4 or 8 looks like 4 of them got covered up or it works both 4 and 8 pins? Thanks,
-
Nice looking board be good to see some proper testing:up:
-
hmm.. looking it have a little problem with Perf Lvl same as other P45 :( Thanks for sharing mate ;)
Can't wait for playing it :D

Its a bug of cpu-z. Its ddr2.
The 8 pin molex for cpu requires at least 4, better use 8 for more stability.

Is there any chance that EIST will run with OC or the EPU-6 Engine let chill my CPU in idle?
If i saw the the two CPU VCore i hoped a little bit that one is for idle and the other for load :)

Ahh exactly like Arne said above - just a CPU-Z poo poo.

Yup, but maybe new BIOS build would make things easier :)

Ohh don't ask me about EPU-Six. Last time i tried to use it at clean VistaOS + P5Q3 Deluxe - it ended with OS corruption :rofl:
But IIRC (please someone correct me if i'm wrong) EPU-Six could work only (in terms of doing "something" to CPU VRM) with EIST enabled and AI Tuner set to Auto.
It has some turbo (raised fsb etc) modes available, but for me, only visible thing was damaged OS :ROTF:

Along the same line, I wonder if my Maximus Formula EK MOSFET sinks will work on this..
