P5B DLX Reloaded - E8500 @ 629 FSB on air

[before]

The commando has good, too.

Because one piece of memory was broken, I carried it out with a single channel.

Golden chip here, congrats Duck-san. Could you please tell us the FPO/BATCH code?

1.7v on air

2.01v boot 550MHz LN2


>PPInDaHouse


I feel uncertain, but probably BIOS is unfinished.


>dinos22

I have used up LN2 on the way.
I intend to achieve 6GHz on the next time.

I saw your activity well.
There is not the events in Japan, and so I fill with envy at AU.

Good Luck Team AU !




Hi PcCI2iminal

Your record seems to improve better.
Do your best toward 6GHz.！

Hi before-sama

FSB-652MHz Q748A203(35****) (air)
MAX-5928MHz Q745A703(2V****) (LN2)

Sweet Duck... impressive work and that chip is just nuts...

Keep pushing it.

[PcCI2iminal]

do you have any memset screenies at high fsb so can see what memory timings you using ?

here George

How about the cpu's end speed, do these wolfies run higher end speed as well or is it just better for FSB?

Very nice results there PCcriminal, did you sell all cpu's or do you have some left?

they are great clockers and no more E8XXX left

[EnJoY]

Junior, you are the king! Awesome result, especially since it's p965!!!

[PcCI2iminal]

very impressive Duck - san ,congrats
I was searching for a Commando in my place but no more Commando to buy in Hiroshima area

Your record seems to improve better.
Do your best toward 6GHz.！

my chip needs more voltage and i will vmod the P5B
PM sent

thx Alex

i like Asus P5B series but the PCI-e 1x bug on P5B is killing me i tried to raise the pci-e frequency and vNB and sometimes it works and some times no...

[dinos22]

yeah that really sucks about P5B

Great motherboard, great results.

yeah that really sucks about P5B

Did you guys try better NB cooling. With the NB & SB watercooled, the pcie 1x problem never happen again for me.

thanks for the screenie.. gives me something to try out.. as i think part of the fsb limit is memory related heh

[M.Beier]

Hmm, I've just asked ASUS Scandinavia for a board, hope they'll get it shipped swiftly, please, this pci-e 1x issue... What is it exactly.. And how can it be bypassed ?

[boblemagnifique]

congratz PcCI2iminal-San & Duck-San

Impressive Chips i965 with the E8500 Wolfdale !!

If I remember right just set pci-e to 100-110 or you had to increase pci-e (sb vcore) volts to smth like 1.6 or so

[PcCI2iminal]

yeah that really sucks about P5B

I got the same problem with DFI LP UT P35 but i solved it with pci-e @ 110MHz

Learn

i will try to get a better cooling but with max voltage(and the NB works hot) and stock clocks the PCI-E works fine at 16x,the problem is when i try to run at 400FSB+,the PCI-e droop to 1x.
thx

I`ve tried to increase the vsb without any luck and checking the cpuz the PCIE-x seems to be 16x but i got 75% less than normal.

here is a good run when everything works properly

Hey guys!

What about "FSB Termination" voltage...? In some post i am reading is should be lowered... i mean we got use to the settings we used with conroe, now wolfdale needs less...
So my question is.
If now I am running 8*480MHz, 1.276V, FSB termination can stay at 1.40V..? Or go lower?

[dinos22]

hey guys

lol we tested one of E8500 chips i got off junior........we couldn't pass 580MHz FSB 32M SuperPi stable on P5B DLX that does 600MHz with other chips

maybe it was the RAM we were using (bunch of corsair dominator PC10000 sticks in single and dual channel and Cellshock single and dual channel CAS4/5 >> but all my dominaotors can bench 650+ MHz no problem so donno eek)...i just can't think of anything else since the chip does 570 prime stable on air with one of junior's boards and around 550 with mine here heh

guess no 6GHz for us heheh

we were able to bench the same with 1.67v and later 1.8v ..... i'll certainly be hammering other boards with this CPU until i do some 600+ MHz FSB benchmarks

we had gradually increased NB volts to 1.85v while under watercooling and never going past 26C lol

this is as high as we could go untweaked running CAS5

[JacKz5o]

Very nice overclock

[Learn]

Nice pics. Too bad for the MB 590 is not bad FSB with this MB.

[davemelb]

Oh man, sucks that it didn't work out dino
You guys put in alot of effort, but always seems to be running into a wall somewhere . It doesn't seem fair.

But good pics and good work so far. I'll continue to cheer for Team.AU.

[kiwi]

dinos22, its probably chipset I could do validation @ 636 but anything above 570 was not 32M stable. 600 was ok for 1M

Chipset DI/LN2 cooled + 2V should help, I am going for 9x640 next week and 6Ghz when I get 8500

[Brian MP5T]

Nice Clocks
