ASUS Maximus Formula SE

Ok, some first tests:

CPU vcore is undervolted by ~0,05v (difference between bios setting and CPUz)
DRAM voltage is overvolted by ~0,1v (difference between bios setting and bios monitoring)
vPLL voltage is overvolting by ~0,1v (difference between bios setting and bios monitoring)

Also vcore is dropping by 0,015v under load with load line calibration enabled according to CPUz.

Will check these results later with a DMM.

Now some overclocking:

Setup:

Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 ES cooled by OCZ Vindicator
Asus Maximus Formula
OCZ DDR2 PC2-9200 FlexXLC
Asus 8600GT Silent
OCZ Powerstream 520W

Max. FSB @ vPLL 2.3v

550MHz increasing vPLL increases max. FSB, so this result is CPU limited (validator link)

Max. mem @ 2.7v

700MHz CL5-6-6-21 (validator link)

It seems that the memory isn't running as great as it did on my P5K. I can run 1m at the same speed on my P5K with only 2.55v (bios setting) but with different subtimings.

Also a 1M run:

14.640s this run is also vPLL limited (forgot to make a validation file, will do that next time)

nice info syngrow and nice fsb

The time is very bad for this frequency, can you run memset, i would like to see the subtimings for this setup.

Pippuzzo...che stai dicendo...ha una E6300...non un E6600 con 4mb di cache L2!
Il tempo va bene!

Stil nothing spectaculair unfortunately. Have been struggling all night to get me Cellshock to run on 2/3 divider without luck. Im missing something The Q6600 (L731B163) seems to do rather nice on air though. Ill try another set of mem tonight and/or put in a dual core. Crossfire soon, this is single card all air:

Already tried running in different memslots? might work (still have to test the difference here though)

It's an e6300 though it does seem somewhat slow...

does this use the jmicron controller for IDE
does it add an extra boot screen so it can detect the drives?

thanks

More than likely it is standard issue ASUS screens, still an AMI BIOS as far as I know, and yeah probably still uses JMicron.
