How I managed to get DFI 975XG to post out of 816 bios every time

[Raja@ASUS]

Kunaak tried extensivley to go over 400fsb with 2 gig on this 816 bios, he could not do it. However with 2 X 512 I have seen upto 470. This issue is specific to this board as said earlier. It's more to do with the 1066 strap I think, all the other boards on 975 that can go over 400 with 2 gig 1:1 seem to be forcing the 1333 strap. Unfortunatley this has not been enabled with the 816 bios. We can only hope that Oskar gets the time to implement the 1333 strap with this board.


I can now run 1:1 upto around 370 fsb with 2 gig, @ cas 4. Using Team group 3-3-3-8 667 mhz 2 gig kit.

If the 1333 strap were te be enabled I think this board should at least match the revision 304 Badaxe.

I can get up to 460 with 2 gigs of Mushkin ram on this board, its once I put in Team Xtreme ram where my OC falls drastically.
this is my second set of this ram, and this board, just does not seem to like that ram...
however, with Mushkins PC8000 I have no problems hitting 400+ with 2 gigs of ram on this board.

give me a minute to reboot, I am running 8 x 400 with the 4:5 divider, testing this ram out for the last 2 days.
+ still downloading XS OS

How do you take those screen shots?
My 975x/g with a 6400 and 07-31 bios always runs at 415 and I have had it to 435. If anyone wants to See I will post them.

Hi Kunaak,

What chips do the Mushkin sticks use?

That being said I'm using an E6600, maybe the 9x multiplier is harder to hit as high as 8X.

Nice, is that GMH? Or GKX?

I dont know whats in this ram, and I wont be taking them apart to figure it out. all I heard was "micron" when I asked...

anyways, this is my last post from this board for awhile.
time to go back to my DS3 for awhile.
