ASUS Maximus V Forumla/Extreme Official Support Thread

[mele]

I'm running my MVE with a 2600k at 4.6 all auto using CPU LevelUp. My idle temps are running 37-43c. Water colled using a XSPC Raystorm and dual rad. Core voltage is at 1.416 in CPUz even though it's st at 1.3 EVO?

On the old P68 Evga board the temps were about 5 c cooler.

Should I try reseating the WB?

MVE Bios 1501 is out! Does anyone have a change log?

Thanks,

Mel

MAXIMUS V EXTREME BIOS 1501
Improve system stability.

I thought it was the formula,sorry

[ante_ante]

I?m going to buy the Formula V and use watercooling. How much does the mosfetblock inhibit the flow ?

Got a Formula V and a 3770k today Don?t think the mosfetblock reduces the flow that much...

its honestly just sales gimmick , these board hit some of the highest clock and never use , and all youll do is add restriction and heat to your loop . . . skip it if i where you

-I use it with no flow loss by using a metal T [side output using 3\8 tube] in the loop passing it into the mosfetblock then backout of the case into the loop with a Y ,running in parallel flow [1\2" + 3\8"] .
I had room to do this because my rads are in the basement[just under the floor] so I had long tube runs in the case , the T went in after the last gpu/block in the case , the Y went in the loop just out side the case just before the QDC .
-even if it only gets 20% of the flow it's still removes some heat from my office , main reason for the external rads.

I bought my MVF and i5 3570k 2 days ago, after i fried my R4E and my i7 3930k

The MVF is very stable and super easy to OC, detect my 4 slots 16GB from the first boot, no issues at all

[hersounds]

Great! but IMC is on 3570k inside not in motherboard...the mobo don't have any troubles to detect 16-32 Gb but IMC...he's the boss

welcome to the MVF club , nice start there , but you haven't seen nothing yet , with a good bios and the correct settings you can push that chip way far and stable

Yes, you are right.
But the first board i bought was z77 sabertooth, and it wont boot up with 4 memory sticks, i tried every thing but no go, then i replaced it in the same day with MVF, and it boot up with 4 memory sticks without any issue.

Yes i can see some of you guys, reached 4.8 ~ 5Ghz, but for me 4.2 ~ 4.4Ghz enough for gaming

Thank you guys

agree with Tony no need to watercool that it has lots of copper and its a big block

Agreed cpu Clock to good efficient power to heat ratio works best . . .

Yea Sergio If mean I was to do it I would go with the ek block , but then again still no performance can be gained , but it sure looks so pweety lol

Alex follow my instructions here AI SUITE is hard when it start making problems

[Alex-Ro]

I did and I still get errors......

Must be a bug in the 1501 bios.
No matter what I try IEST seems to still be enabled!
CPU Core speed @ idle is 1600 MHz.
Going back to 1408 and see what that does.

[Trice]

Hey guys I just bought a 3770K to replace my 950. I currently have 3x4GB 1600 sticks. Are they ok to use on this board or should I go with something different? I'm open to any ideas. Thanks!
