How do we monitor PLL voltage , memory voltage, NB temp ?? Any one please ??
everest and asus probe they just don't show these

Unfortunately, I haven't found any program that does monitor those voltages
Even Asus' own utility doesn't do it.
I'd imagine the sensor chip used on the board can't monitor those or isn't wired to do so?

I don't know how this person gets the ram , QPI and PLL voltage monitor in the Asus Probe: I don't see how anyway you can set in Asus Probe

regards the Sleep mode issue, last night something happened and the pc can go to sleep mode and wake up in a 1 second!.
using windows 7,
strange but i know that the reason behind this was the IDE port!
i changed my old ploxtor 16x DVD "IDE" to samsung DVD drive "SATA" and the sleep mode fixed! with the last bios "ASUS P6T D. v2"

i don't know if this will fix your problem but i think if you had an IDE Drive connected try to unplug it and try.

I'd like to know that also, I couldn't find those readings when I tried Asus probe and also could see how to get them in the options? I'll reinstall the latest version and see what I can come up with.

[r1rhyder]

I don't see anywhere he say's it's a P6T mobo.

Ah, good catch!
I just tried to install the latest version and couldn't even get it to run (Vista X64/SP2)
Besides, if Probe could read those on this board, Everest, HW Monitor, etc should also be able to as they call on the same io chip for their readings.

[icecpu]

I tried the latest asus probe version also, but those voltages still didn't come up

Anyone try using the Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 with the P6T Deluxe and have trouble getting it to fit because of the capacitors around the CPU? I've done lots of web searches and people mention having this combo, but I want to verify whether anything special beyond using the SE1366 adapter needed to be done to fit the in CPU socket area for mounting.

So far I can't vouch that my friend has the SE1366 adapter. I thought he could run into issues clearing the RAM if the RAM had high heatsinks, but not the mobo capacitors. That makes me suspect he didn't get the adapter or he hasn't discovered it yet in his parts pile.

Kevin, works fine, fits great. Plenty of room around it. I currently have my Asus P6T Deluxe V2 with the Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 in a Thermaltake Armor fullsize case. Oh i'm also running 6x2 G.skill sticks of ram, no clearance issues at all. Fits great, runs silent and super cool. Wish it wasn't pink though.

Quick question I have my qpi v set to 1.3 will run fine with 1.29 but seems sluggish anything below I get errors in linX. Is that too high of a qpi v settings?

[mak1skav]

The highest safe voltage for qpi is 1.35 according to Intel so i guess you won't have any problems with 1.3v

P.S. I have set my QPI at 1.35v from day one without any problems.

[buddatech]

thanks for that info mak1skav

Just got word from JJ at Asus that there is a new beta bios available for the Asus P6T Deluxe v1

"This bios still maintains the TDP disable feature but improves support for C0 stepping CPU where we found issues. Additionally there is an updated microcode for better support and options for XEON based CPUS. "

WARNING: Use of this bios is at your own risk and may reduce the life of either your CPU, VRM, motherboard or all three.

They are still thinking about releasing a similar bios with the TDP disable feature for 3 other P6T boards so be patient.

"This bios still maintains the TDP disable feature but improves support for C0 stepping CPU where we found issues. Additionally there is an updated microcode for better support and options for XEON based CPUS. "

Selecting a memory multiplier higher the 8x using a C0 CPU resulted in no post on reboot. A workaround was pressing the reset button.

Only memory multipliers 6x and 8x were available when using 35x0 processors.

Both issues are now fixed.

Official BIOS versions also have the locked multiplier issue when uising 35x0 processors. An official release should be forthcoming this week or next that correct it.

About the w3520, will they release a bios with support for it, meaning no blocked multis and no throttling, for the P6T vanilla?

Many thanks,

[jerome2710]

Now I've got some throttling on my non-deluxe P6T too.. It's driving me crazy. Even CPU-Z says 20x once in a while!


I'm also asking your help with my i7 overclock.
It's running on 203x21 at 1,4125V at the moment. It's a D0 batch 3851A220.

Pushed it on my P6T with 3GB Corsair 1600-CL9. (will it overclock futher with other memory?) Cooled by a TRUE Real Copper. Temps are not an issue at the moment.

Settings so far:



I want to clock it as far as possible on safe volts. The computer is running 5 days a week for like 6-7 hours a day. Which volts should I use? (like PPL, vCore, DRAM, QPI....)

I really appreciate your help!

thats to much vcore!! no more than 1.375v loaded on air! and you says it throttles a little?! well 203*16.57 = 3.36Ghz... start from the beginning. 133*20, and see the minimum vcore you need to run at stock speed. then start to raise bclk, and see if its stable during linx, if not raise the vcore. keep doing this until vcore is not helping stabilize. then start messing with qpiv. its not a bad idea to start using the final memorys multi right from the start of the oc. uncore and QPI keep at the lower multi. enable Load Line Calibration. CPU Amplitude, put it to +800mv. CPU/PCIE Spread Spectrum = Disabled. Dram Voltage = 1.66 and you can start with CPU PLL at 1.82, later you see if needed more or not. and dont use XMP Profile, put it in manual.

[jerome2710]

Why is the vcore too much? It's not getting too hot on my wrong mounted TRUE.. I'm remounting it this weekend by the way.

jesus. have you at least read the intel specs/max voltages for the i7?!

[jerome2710]

Actually no, I didn't. Have you taken a look to a few hundred other people's who also run the i7 on 1,4V?

[r1rhyder]

infected's method is sound. I run vcore at 1.3v for 4.2GHz.

[jerome2710]

I remeber that DRAM voltage 1,66V gives me warning. May I ignore that?

Thanks for your help. I didn't see your edit in time though.

[r1rhyder]

1.66v for dram is safe.

[benko]

can anybody conifurm this: especially now since there is a fix to the turbo throttling bios "bug"

so is there any fix for 21x multi in idle??
