ASUS Maximus Formula SE

[MARSOUIN]

What RAM are you running?

PC8500, Ballistix Tracer

[mouawad]

I thought I saw some1 reported a NON SE with a 1.02G rev tho.

that was probably me, my non SE is a 1.02G.

i've also seen a couple of others report the same too.

does this new bios still have the unable to downgrade problem just like 0903?

[eSp!s0]

Hi, as eSp!s0 has pointed out, the CPU calibration is back to the 'traditional' asus way of reading the CPU temp. Please note that with this reading it is taken from a external diode, that is why the core temps are higher. Comparing my temps, CPU in Probe says 20c, coretemp says 34,34,30,32c...

Chris

Yes, the coretemps are the same, only cpu temperature has changed to 20° lower than before. But this temperature of about 20° under load with aircooling... why they use this method, it`s not very realistic.

[cuke2u]

Hi, that's why nobody uses it, as I said before, it uses the external diode, no good for those die-hard overclockers..

so far

Hi, my initial impressions of the 0907 is good, running and a oc of 3.6ghz. I've put back in my 4 x 1gb Crucial Ballistix PC8500, run them at 1066, 5-5-5-15 @2.19 volts and managed to run prime for over two hours, where as before it wouldn't last ten mins. I know that's not absolute proof, but it's looking better.

I'm freaking scared upgrading my bios. i better stick to 903 until I get a backup machine .

[Warboy]

I think these image will speak for itself.




Completely stable

[kup]

Warboy, what did it take to achieve that before? Voltages? Temps?

[leoftw]

what are your settings in the asus bios. I hope 907 Does wonders too.

[SNIPoR]

did anyone managed to water cool this board?, i have 1/2OD Tygon Tubing, i know the Fusion Block is 3/8 but iam just wondering about the leakage and deffrence between air and water cooled on it.... Pictures would be nice too

thank you

SNIPoR, take a look at this thread here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=162085

Computer just rebooted and I got this message. opt temp3 overheat protection. . Could anyone explain this to me?

I am also getting randon crashes when I exit Enemy Territory game.

I ran memtest for 12 hours no errors. Thanks for any help.

Don't know why you would get that unless you are using an optional temp probe plugged into the mobo at that location.

Go into your bios and disable the overheat protection for the optional temp probes and that shouldn't happen again.

So you have full confidence in the new 0907 warboy? Are your vDIMM spikes still there with this BIOS?

[kup]

Warboy, you're using 2 Dimms right? What Bios settings are you running for 475MHz?

[Krav]

hey i posted in the other thread but thought i would post over here to see if anyone could help. Never overclocked and just want to dip my feet into overclocking slightly.



Is there any settings guide for say 3ghz? as i just want to push it up gradually.

Im currently on q6600 with 4gb (2x2gb stick) of ocz reaperx ram, any help would be really appreciated. Also im on a air only setup.

Thanks

[Zucker2k]

First impression (hopefully not the last one) of bios 0907: Bios does not recover from crahes as gracefully as 0903. Also, it would have none of my 8x480 on the 266 strap after crash. Back on 0903 (for the moment).

[Severance]

Boot from bios Thats more like it fellas

[Warboy]

Their getting better, atleast.

but The problem is still there, Random reboots/Voltage spikes past 421x9

Random lockups past 478x8 for me.

Hey guys got cpu to 3ghz but cpu-z is reporting temps at 49c pretty much on all cores and this is idle.. seems high?

[leoftw]

on what cooler ?

[Krav]

on what cooler ?

thermalright ultra extreme with as5

[pazza316]

What settings are we using to get high FSB on 0907? Please can people post voltages etc for these FSB's. I am now testing this bios and it would help alot.

Thanks
