Foxconn Quantum Force Black Ops X48 OC Guide (56k Warning)

[camouflage]

This board is not perfect for subzero 45nm wolfdale runs as it's especially tuned for extreme quadcore overclocking .

I don't run subzero, but with chilled water.

[fireice2]

where can you get this board?

Nowhere these days..........

[Nosfer@tu]

It is op for preorder in an english store.
They overcharge BIG time though. 399 Pound if I remember and that is just pure stealing!

Great thread, I just bought mine from the egg about 2 hours ago. I had to send back the S2E to many problems. Looking forward to see what this board can do with my QX9650 on water...

hey Cpt.Planet i was just wondering, do you know what would be the best bios for Dual core cpus.. im hitting the fsb wall at 565 with my E8500 ???

[M3kk]

I cant hit 450, lol .
I will try GTL tweaking, but..

try different straps.. that helped with me

[M3kk]

From jumper, or BIOS?
What are u using over 500?

[Planet]

Try using the jumper. I havent been able to test the retail board yet with a dual core so its hard to say. The GTL tweaking should give you some extra FSB try +1 at first then +2

well i did it from the bios.. what do you mean what im using over 500.. voltage settings ??? or what

[M3kk]

Yes, settings, and ALL .
I need and want to know every little setting.

[M3kk]

I`m n00b? I really cant find the strap selection in the bios.
Or the FSB : Ram ratio CPU 266, 333, 400 is that? So only with 1:2 i can select the FSB?

If i set with a jumper 450, then boot, i can put with setfsb to 500, but in the bios i cant ajust the voltages, etc. ( the OC - Manual is inactive ).

Bios G21 . Will try 17 now..

LE : If i put 500 with 1:2 Cpu 400, then the rams could be at 1000, no? I got 666 .

Hey Cpt Planet which BIOS should I use when I get my board on Wednesday for a QX9650? Use the newest BIOS online from there site or do you have any Beta BIOS?

Thanks

G20 is the latest last I heard. Some have had an issue with it so you might want G19. I dont have a retail board yet so its hard to say.

Ok how do I disable the CPU FAN when system boots giving me a warning.. I am on water so no need for it.. And under CPUZ it shows a multi x6 with my QX9650? I went and disabled everything on the 1st page of this thread. This BIOS is way different then a Nvidia BIOS coming from a S2E board. I am using the P02 BIOS now. I have not tried any OCing yet. I want to burn in for a day or two, and I would like to get the x6 and CPU FAN warning fixed before I start OCing.. Any help would be great...

Thanks..

disable the CPU FAN warning from quantum bios, oc gear, foxconn function, smart led disabled and the other one disabled too.

for higher multipliers than default for qx, just leave cpu feature at native mode and frequency unlimit enabled and its ok!

Thanks LardArse..

I fixed the multi problem and now I will search to fix the fan now. And from there I will try the new G22 BIOS...

Quick question...

Has anyone been able to signup for the BIOS updates at www.quantum-force.net? I have tried many times and after I finish inputting all my info it just freezes [the site] on the "loading" process.

Dont put in your dog tag number in. I know they were having some issues. If you still cant drop me a Pm and I will host them on a server for you.

I had issues registering too. If I tried to register my name and motherboard at the same time, the site would hang indefinitely. Everything worked when I just put in my regular information and not register my board.

I will try that next, thanks.

If the idea Furious gave me does not work, I will PM you. Thanks for the offer.

Can someone confirm that the chipset block is made from Alu and not Copper ?

The body is made out of copper. Now, the top is of a black color and I do not want to scratch it to verify the material. I doubt they would say its copper and make out of aluminum instead.

One thing though, the extra barbs it comes with felt a little funny to me. They felt like plastic [not saying they are plastic], so i decided to remove the stock ones and use my leftover 3/8 D-Tek barbs, if they can be attached that is. As you might noticed, I've looked at it but I have not really messed with it.

Thanks man, tried it your way and I finally got registered.
Question again, which one of the Beta BIOS'es is the most current one? I'm interested on the "tightened timings" one.
