ASUS Bearlake P35 Chipset DDR2 P5K Deluxe and DDR3 P5K3 Deluxe (56K warning)

[msgclb]

Is it for sale in the US?

So far the only listing of any Asus P35 motherboard that I can find is at ClubIT for the Asus P5K Deluxe for $269.99 but it's currently 'Sold Out'.

Why there's bios option for that dampener which ain't on on default? Some downsides to it?

I'll have the P5K tomorrow.

Ordered it from Komplett (they operate in most western European countries).

You can safely go DDR2 with no performance hit for a good year or more except for a few benches. I wouldn't let that sway your opinion.

but don´t use the 4:5 divider. the 5:6 is better.

yeah, divider 5:6 works fine for me, 4:5 wont work at mem 1000Mhz

Hmm, Asus need to fix the ratio/divider bug. My old Commando and P5B Pre worked fine with any divider. Now i'm testing divider 1:1 to see how it clocks my mem.

[Pillo-kun]

this board looks really sweet but i brought my abit back to life so i will keep it. but what is the highest mem clock ya got form this new suckaa?

Everest Cache & Memory Benchmark 570FSB 1:1 4-4-4-9

SuperPI 32M 570FSB 1:1 4-4-4-9

This Rhino SavageN.S.P PC2-8000F4M (D9GKX) kit did DDR1220 4-4-4-9-6-25 (tCL-tRCD-tRP-tRAS-tWR-tRFC) with just 2.4V. No problems running SuperPI 32M thru

DDR1000 4-4-4-9 is also HCI Memtest stable at 2.05V (bios setting, 2.08V actual)

The board officially launches tomorrow! So expect a pile of benchies and etailers stocking this thing in the next few days.

Intel's official NDA is still May 21st and the board's were originally to go on sale on June 4th. Obviously, some distributors have violated that rule, but after reading Intel's latest communication to the manufacturer's and supply chain partners I would say any boards not already past the distributors will be held now.

makes a mental note to harass the out of distie for another mobo hahahah before they get smacked on the hands haha

Bios: 0202

My P5K Deluxe is underway.
Can some one upload or send the other bios files ?
0303 ect.

[StimulatedBoy]

Seems to be a new BIOS out (0405) for the P5K over at the ASUS FTP site... Does this apply for the P5K and/or the P5K Deluxe?

ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/mb/socket775/P5K

[MrGarrison]

I'll know soon if it applies to the P5K Deluxe

[Evil]

How´s the Crossfire performance with the P5K DLX? Looking for crossfire motherboard and don´t know what would be better, 975 or P35. Maybe someone could test it. Does it suck like it did with 965 or not.

Changelog Bios 0405 P5K:

1. Increase
BOOT_BLOCK_COMPATIABLE_VERSIONn to 3
2. Revise [RAS# Activate to Precharge] option items.
3. Generate a full reset if FSB of dual-core CPU is overclocked more than 500MHz.
4. Added [Relax level] and it will display while [Transaction Booster] is Disabled.
5. Updated some of DIMM checksum value and defautl setting to 2.0v.

What does 3. exactly mean???

[MrGarrison]

Hm I tried updating to 0405 with EZ Flash 2 but I got this error message:

"The file size does not match existing BIOS size!"

So I'm guessing it's not for the P5K Deluxe.

Edit: Aha! Deluxe had its own folder:
ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/mb/so...%20Deluxe/

0202 seems to be the latest for it.
