Look in here since you have a Venice and grab the modded 704 BIOS ;)


Silliness can penetrate anything tho :p:


If Memtest sees the same thing, then everything else will too... try the BIOS.

Which memory ratio are you running at gun? And have you tried CBI as well?

Maybe some of your silly has rubbed off on your puter :p:

Here's how to do it the easy way ;)

Yes to the HS removal method... be sure to leave on the foam spacer between the HS and nF4 chipset (prevents the HS from getting ":banana::banana::banana::banana:ed" at an angle and shorting against things)... or take some of...

If you aren't in a hurry... I would wait a little and see if a) a new rev of the MB does come out and b) if you like ATI cards wait and see how the grouper based MBs are ;)

The problem is/was that on a cold-boot the Vmem was set to ~2.5V instead of the value programmed in the BIOS. It will affect any memory that won't run at SPD timings @ ~2.5V.

Good to see you solved your power problem ;)

FYI... the 6-pin PCIe adapter is for power hungry PCIe graphics cards... they have a mating cnx on the end of the card.

As long as you put a fan across the area, no problem on the 5V usage from heat.

Here's a mod of your pic showing a good place to put one ;)

Bad news man, sorry :( Hope your RMA flies through fast!!

Mike, if you look at a pic of an older NF4 chipset, there are two empty pad set positions.

Here's a pic of an older Ultra chipset to show you the pads now covered over:

They've already hit retail stores... see attached pic (SLI version).
