ASUS P5W DH - Problems + Fixes Thread

[anzial]

Hmm, I think these are the best deal right now from either one posted above: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231098
I like GSkill already Here it says these stick are D9GMH too http://translate.google.com/translat...3Dnju%26sa%3DG

Sesdave - well, in my case my cpu takes only 1.4vcore to get to 3.6ghz but (now) 1.75v mch. It was fine before with 1.65v mch but now it's unstable. And I do have D9GMH memory, too... So you tell me, is it my memory, cpu or the mobo? Mobo is rev 1.04G, if that means anything

Further details: I ran memtest overnight at 1066mhz effective, 1:2 ratio at 266fsb, memory was at 2.1v, no errors, no lockups. My cpu ran Orthos @ 3825mhz with 1.525vcore, 1.75v mch for 5 hours, no errors but then something broke when I was messing around with screenshots and now it won't load windows at the same settings, and my 3.6ghz setting with 1.65v mch is no longer stable either, i have to bump mch to 1.75v to make it stable. There are reports of others who can't even reach 400fsb a page or 2 above in this thread. So I think if I get another board, based on 965 chipset, I'm pretty sure I won't have any problems hitting 4ghz or above with obvious heat issues but not the fsb ones The 975 chipset is limited, there's no way around it, just slight variations in mobo manufacturing allows fsb above 400fsb, but in general, most owners of unmodded 975 mobos are limited in fsb..
