P5B Deluxe: BIOS screens for maximum overclocking success

[freecableguy]

I am providing the following BIOS screens with comment in the hopes that this will answer some of the more frequent questions we get here at XS concerning how to unlock the full potential of the Asus P5B Deluxe motherboard.

Not every board is the same, not ever CPU/memory combination responds in the same manner. This guide is not intended as a 'Set-it-and-Forget-it' solution. As with all overclocking, user participation and thought is still required.

Good luck!

nice guide as always
I have better results with all auto (fsbn nb, sb and ich)
are you running 120 pci-e daily ???
also, what the "FCG touch" on this board ? :P

is there a new Rev on the P5B dlx wifi ap ?
cuz i just got one now, and its 1.03G rev, is there anything better ?

i think they all are 1.03g

nice work FCG.

for those that dont have a clue for what values to use on those 10-10-10-10 subtimings, heres a tip 3-10-5-13 from top to bottom.

Thanks for the CPU setting screen, kris I haven't had the slightest idea what to set.

nice work FCG.

Is there a gain fsb wise from running the last one at 13? I ran 0-9-4-9 with 2*512 and now 0-10-5-10 on 2*1024.

This is really amateur GUIDE! Setting maximum of all system voltages is only fore REAL noobs! Settings 120MHz of PCIExpress totally destruct your Raptor RAID 0. This is for nothing, my 5 years daughter can set BIOS same way like in this "GUIDE".

What's a pro guide then? Set all stock volts and OC 5%, then run orthos for 72 hours to make sure it's stable? Give me a break. Only reason the guide has them to the max in BIOS is because you need to vmod to get real voltages

But what DDR2 sticks is that with ? I think that would depend on other factors in the NB timings...

[Chura]

really ?
cuz i've read some1 said about Rev C something, that reach for 550 to 600...

really nice thanks for the info

[serious1]

great guide. Thanks

[fatty]

Sticky !!!!

Nice one freecableguy

[cupra]

as always -thx alot , great one nick

FCG,

About the PECI, isn't that by disabling it the CPU temp reporting will not be accurate anymore ?

[aggybong]

Why do you recommend disabling Vanderpool Tech? Virtualization seems pretty cool if I ever want to use it :p

What's the benefit of upping the voltage to the soutbridge?
Also, 1.65v on the NB and 1.45v on FSB termination scare me :~(

I cant go past 500fsb without raising SBv to 1.8. then it goes to 540fsb just an example...

Saved! Thanks dude should be getting my P5B Deluxe this week!

Latest BIOS the best?

Cheers!

Thread stuck! Great job Kris! Lets just hope people see this before posting new threads

Nice work fcg. I have a favor to ask of you now since this thread was stickied. Would it be possible for you to link to the p5b deluxe problems and fixes thread in the first post of this thread since that thread hasn't been stickied yet?

[JoeBar]

Nice info!

[adamant415]

Thanks for providing the link fcg.

[Barracuda]

very nice thank u m8

[Luis_GT]

Awesome guide. Thanks FCG
