ASUS P5W DH - Problems + Fixes Thread

[phillai]

Can someone tell me if this works with the new Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.13GHz?

In support for WeldZilla.
I got no problems running this board at FSB 430 on a 24/7 basis.
RAM : look in sig.

Jeez, nobody's attacking weldzilla, and the memory ain't the issue for most ppl (imho), it's the board. And btw, if you really want good memory, imho you better get this: https://shop4.outpost.com/product/5162136
Far more reputable and after rebate costs less than what weldzilla is trying to sell here I have those sticks and with default cpu settings, I can run them at 1:2, the rest of time I have to 1:1, for whatever reason mobo can't handle other ratios, even tho I know I can run the memory up to 533mhz, 1066effective.

And weldzilla, are you saying you didn't mod the board in any way, and run it 400fsb and above at 1.65mch? That prolly won't work for most ppl, otherwise why are their so many volt-mods for this damn board? I'm not saying you are lying, I'm saying you are a minority.

lol, the hz is better by a country mile.

right, let's see how GSkill support comes thru if something goes wrong with your hz OCZ in this regard is untouchable Besides, for the lesser price, you get 8500-rated sticks instead of 6400 ones.. I dunno, I'd prefer to have warranty covered speed up to 1066 rather than overclocking 6400 beyond the specs (i'm not saying they cant). Besides, you do realize that D9s are binned, right?

When I read weldzilla post the MCH was at 1.55v and the vcore at 1.65v with fsb at 425.. I use less vcore volts with MCH at 1.65v to run 3.6Ghz. I can run FSB 420 on vcore 1.55 with MCH at 1.65 on air - temps are not to my liking so I dont. MCH at 1.65 should be good upto 420-430 - there are other references to that effect on this thread. In general its not the board - its whatever the quality of the cpu and memory you get. If not an early revision board I believe most volt mods are to cure the vdroop which on average is about .05v.. Me I didnt bother! I would like better memory than the sticks I have cos I got bought them thinking they had D9s but the rev I got had Promos - good for specified speed but not o/c. I am going to cure that by giving these a tryCellshock PC8000c4 http://www.legitreviews.com/article/464/1/ Unfortunately here in the UK we pay premium price so they better be good!
