Any successful high HTT clocks on the Asus A8N Sli board? I can't get over 245HTT no matter what settings I use. This is on an Athlon64 3000+ 0440SPMW CPU, which on my Neo2 can get well over 300 HTT no problem. The bios is the beta 1003 bios.

wierd.. the sli boards are supposed to get really high htt... ur sure its no ur memory controller?? i know u said u had it on a neo2, but it cant hurt to mention it.
If the chip has been stable at 300htt+ on another board than it's not the memory controller.
Probly need a new bios....I think OPB mentioned about A8N SLI, I forgot which thread....
I'm on the newest bios... I havent' heard anyone with an Asus SLI board hit high frequencies yet. I've seen high multi clocks though...but I only have a 3000+
i have the same problem! Bios 1003.01 242x13 1/1 or 282x11 but memory at 333 pass 245 i have more than 15000 errors at memtest with my former Neo2 i can bench at 300 with that ram! Shamino did his record at 279x11 so he has a solution...

Max vcore is 1.65V? Until bios revision, prolly vcore mod?Originally Posted by quicksilverXP
yup.... but it's not the CPU holding me back right now as my Winnie did 2700Mhz Prime Stable at 1.6v.
I've also noticed that I can't seem to get the CPU vcore higher than 1.5v, despite the max vcore in the options being 1.65v. Anyone else experience this?
would the two cards need to be the same exact clocks when in SLI setup? or would the load balancing be able to compensate for the lower clocked card.
yes they would need the same overclocks..
eh..what the reason ?
you can get it in pc shop in some country ....
OPB recommended to stay away from the ASUS board but didn't explain why exactly. Crappy bios?
i5 750 4.20GHz @ NH-D14 | 8GB | P7P55DLE | 8800U | Indilinx SSD + Samsung F3 | HAF922 + CM750W

I can see that now... the bios is crappy. Hopefully it'll shine with a bios update.
he also said that about the epox board, and that board is pretty good after all
can you see the light? is it shining too bright? can you see the light at the end of the tunnel, i know i do, i know its true.
Reason no1 for all nforce4 boards low performance is half baked bios imo...
They tried to rush new mobo to retail channels. I think thats why dfi kinda late to release nforce3 GB cause they made sure the bios is at least workin 99%.........
Is like release new mobo, gain a momentum in sales and work on bios update down the road......

Well just like many reviewer's if you noticed, OPB gets stuff from these 2 companies before anyone else here really does. MSI, Gskill. Also, if you noticed, his overclocking for each of these parts are unmatched by others.
Can we say cherry picked?
Of course, his input will be biased since cherry picked ones will do much better than luck of draw.
How can you explain the shamino's overclocking with "Asus sucks" kind of comment?
Right now, I am more interested in benchers who have to get their stuff with their money giving comments on these rather than manufacturer supplied ones. We see TCCDs barely going from 260-320+ mhz!!! I wouldn't get TCCD based on idea that it will most likely do 320+... nor most of you. These kind of variance exists on all components we buy (hopefully not the PSU and few other core ones which we don't over clock :P) and can't be decided based on single unit comparison.
We shall wait and see as more of these board make it to hands of bleeding edgers who were quick enough to get their hand on few outlets such as directron. (out of all the places, they put it in stock like 2 hours after I checked the site... lol)

At least I know that zippy700 won't let me down
Edit: Its on the way to feed my starving cpu and other components.....(sorry oot)

The 'crappy' bios on the Asus wont put me off. Im after one here in the Uk once they become availilbe.
btw does the booster work on the A8N-SLI?
stable at 350X5 here
I find that hard to beilve, 750Mhz overclock on the HHT, making it 2000MHz defualt and 3500MHz as yours. Sorry i don't by that.
Motherboard ASUS P5N-D nForce 750i
CPU Intel Core 2 QX9650 @ 4000MHz

Storage 2x Samsung F1 Spinpoint 750GB Drives
Optical ASUS E616P2 DVD (Black) & ASUS DRW 1604P DVD±R/RW (Black)
Should be back in stock soon - but if you want to use the OCZ booster, just wait for the DFI! 2.1 vcore and 4.0 vdimm
I know theres been a lot of mixed reports, but in my experience, all the negatives that have been written about the bios are pretty much fair.
AMD 3800 X2, DFI NF4 SLI-DR, 2 Leadtek 6800GT, OCZ 3200 Platinum LE, OCZ 600.
