With all mobos getting high FSB is much easier w/ dual-cores. MIIF will easily get 500FSB w/ a wolfie.Originally Posted by 529th
Getting 500FSB w/ a quad is what is difficult on any mobo.
You cannot compare FSB results b/n duallies and quads...they are apples and oranges.

If it is on the ICH10R, then i think you don't have to do that.

No you won't. I've done this since the ICH5R days (2003) and you just install the new motherboard then remember to set the RAID option in your BIOS (known by different names unfortunately, but you'll find it for sure). You can always make a backup to be on the safe side. Windows will even load without re-installation unless there's a new driver issue that crops up related to other components on the new motherboard. All in all I wouldn't worry too much about this, just remember if one hard drive fails (i.e. you knock it real hard when rebuilding your PC) then all your data goes flop.Guys

Hey guys,
Where is the overclocking guide by Simps on reaching 500FSB? I can't seem to find it.
Thanks.

Now that I got bored and decided to take off the heatsink from my formula to put some different paste on, and took the northbridge chip slightly off with itrma is otw, didnt have any trouble get that done, and finally have a reason to get me a MF2 which will be here monday. Cant wait for my MF2 to get here. Just hoped to get it under different circumstances.

full setup?500FSB on Q9550
I finally found some time and made the washer mod,and the temps got a lot better!
Still at max 480 FSB with ok temps (for me atleast)
going to work on that today, I hope to run 500FSB 24/7
keep them coming.you never fail us!
Managed to reduce my vCore for 467x9 4.2GHz
Now to work on 500FSB
@Grnfinger:Nice Work!
2 Months ++ without a new bios...Nice work ASUS.
My last play with this 'board series....Now moved to i7 920 on REII
Q9650 @ 4.3GHz
Asus is trying to fix the bugs with i7, altho the P5 just got a new bios
Last 2 emails from Asus have all been P6T and P5Q bios updates.
I hope to see a working bios to unleash the potential of this board but I'm not holding my breath.
One thing is for sure atleast Asus has been consistant on this board.
Sounds like M2F users haven't payed for BIOS support.Although ASUS pays back with 2-3 crapy bioses on a row.
Consistent ??
It's the first...and the last ASUS mobo i paid for.

I think he meant Consistent, as in consistently NOT providing descent bios's, and consistently taking to long to finally provide a crappy bios. lolConsistent ??

Well,.. i just put up a new mBIOS but this one really isn't the big hit.
