Well i just bought this X38-DQ6 mobo... and i can say it is a pretty good expirience in overclocking compared to my old AMD system... (this is my 1st Intel system... ever)
Now i have some issues:
1)The mobo came with the F4 BIOS, so should i flash to some other version?
2)I have 2 PCi cards, a 56k modem, and SB Live, now the problem is that when i restart the computer the modem gets lost, but when i shut down and boot again the modem is listed in the hardware devices again...
3)I'm having some problems with the memory dividers...
i get this in BIOS:
x.xxA
x.xxB
x.xxC
x.xxD
and basically the only ones that work are 4.0A,3.0A... anything other and the system won't boot, now i'm probably doing something wrong there so any help would be appreciated...
4)Windows, CoreTemp and some other tools keep reading my CPU speed wrong. if i set it to 320x10 then windows read i as 3.53Ghz, what's up with that?
Well, if anyone can give me some hints
Oh, and since i'm new to DDR2 also, are the timings in the pic. OK? i have the Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400С4 kit...
Thanx,
