ASUS RAMPAGE II GENE (Retail) : ROG. X58 m-ATX preview

[ante_ante]

Theman gave me a tip about to set memory with XMP. Finally it booted with 1700Mhz but i noticed that it gave 2v to my memories. Went in to the bios again and set the dram volt to 1.65 , but after that it wouldn´t boot anymore. Something is very strange.....

official BIOS will be 0809 it looks like.. finishing qualification testing on it now. I have asked that this BIOS go up ASAP, it is not perfect yet, but performs much better up top with the Elpida Hypers.

what qpi vtt voltage did you set for that? Is that your Patriot kit or Corsair. If so they seem a bit better than the Kingstons. Still on the previous beta here but removed both the D0 and Kingstons. I'll try the kingstons but not gonna remove water block

When is Turbo V gonna work right on this board??!!!

[ghost_recon88]

I'm running 0803 beta, have you noticed much improvement over 0803 with 0809?

[dro]

really looking fwd to see more results guys

All in good time.. It is a new 2133 kit from OCZ and VTT was at 1.45V, play with the skews, play with the skews..

Turbo V - I just got a new spin this morning, will try it out later.

Sometimes when I boot up, the board doesn't post, but then if I turn it off and turn it on it will post, I save the same bios settings, restart and it works fine. The majority of the time when I boot up it posts though. Also when playing with the multiplier it makes my original initial post logo change colors, has anyone experienced this? -Thanks

I only get this behavior when I unplug my power supply (which I do every day now since it's lightning season). I have to power on, wait 5 seconds, power off, power back on, go into BIOS, save settings, and I'm good.

Maybe the battery is dead or something, I will check it when I get a chance.

I forgot to add, this doesn't happen at stock settings, only overclocked, and my time isn't lagging.

Yes, it might still blip out under Win7 but a reboot will cure it.

I hope that unlock multi Memory with Xeon W35 series....

Well with the 0809 bios, I booted up and got into windows with 1600 mem, but it drops out 2gb and only 4gb of ram show up in bios, and windows, yet cpuz shows 6gb. If I go back to 1200, then 6gb shows up and works fine and memtest also passes. I also tried playing around with dram voltage and qpi voltage, but I couldn't get 6gb to show up while under 1600+....
