Forward: official GIGA 965P-S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 beta BIOS

Try F8i ericminou.

I already have... I had to slightly increase my Vcore voltage to boot with the same BIOS settings as with Bios 7 (went from 1.39xx to 1.40). BIOS F8i doesn't seem to fix that problem..

Then I'm inclined to say you've hit the limit of your CPU with that cooling. 63C is kind of hot. Get the temps down and you might do better.

Sorry I disagree. Again take a look at the Hardforum results. Why are there so many people able to run E6600 at much higher frequencies (ok maybe not that much higher but all the way to 3.9) than 3.6ghz on ASUS boards?? But NONE of the DS3 can cross 3.6??? 63 isnt that hot. Just browse through the many forums and you'll see people going into the low 70s. BTW, I have a L629Bxxx chip/.

Take a look at this!!! No one over 3.6 with the DS (on air nor water). We all are hitting a hard wall there!!!!

Update, rand 7x481 for few hours Orthos, browsing and regular stuff. NP. Decided to overclock video, crash, go to bios and give +.1 to PCIE. Reboot, no go, no go, 7x470, no go. down to 460, boots but crashes after few min. upped the vmch and fsp, and lowered Vcore to 1.5 and so far running orthos for 40 min 7x470

weird. Cause ran just fine 7x481. did benchmarks and everything,then try to boot again and no good.... any reason you can think of?

Also today did the Vdroop Mod, i still had the same drop as before, didn't affect vdroop at all? did any of you see no difference? I did it with a conductive ink.

It works fine. Try again.
