P5K-E should have same pcb layout I thought?

Hi there!

i noticed, and i dont remember if it was always like this, but, when i always come to turn on my pc, i press power button, it turns on, turns off, and turns on again, just like after some OC setting attempt. I dont know if it is any common, but shouldnt my pc just turn on and keep going, instead of everytime shuting down by itself and powering up again?

I am currently using 1.33v and 9x345 in my quad, and it seems really nice, no crash, anything.

Voltage report on EVEREST:

CPU core: 1.33v
AUX: 3.44v
+3.3V: 3.34v
+5V: 5.62V
+12V: 12.34V
+5V Standby: 5.07V
VBAT Battery: 1.38V

Does this sound corretly? I have always got +3.3V, +5V and +12V voltages, always under their respective thresholds, on other mobos, but on this one it seems that values always get higher than the threshold. Any problem on this?


Thank you!

BIos reading are very in accurate regarding 12v rail f.e. , @ bios it shows that my HX620W puts out: 11.905 and fluctates to 11.875 or so. I had my doubts and used a Multimeter to record it : I did several tests, result was:

boot: 12,00 and fluctates to 11.99 and back every 8 secs or so during idle. Then I runned Prime : every 3 secs it jumps to from 12.00 to 11.99, and then the final test prime+ 3dmark06 at the same time : every check from 12.00 to 11.99 and back, and it doesnt even droop more. So conclusion what bios show/ probe reads isnt accurate. Just buy a dimm from ebay : 5-10 dollars and follow this guide: http://forums.extremeoverclocking.co...d.php?t=137886, very easy

PS: anyone , did notice any improvement from bios 0601 over 0311?

Talk about inacurate, these cheap multimeters are inacurate as h3ll.
Get a fluke or something similar to do some real measurement.

My P5K-E wifi does switch on -off and on again on powering up as well, i have to add, i always kill power after turning my computer off.

I think it is normal for this board.
