OK, so if I understand what you just told me, If I disable the pull in options, I can gain some more stability? Thanks

Yes. Also, if relaxing the PL to 7, 8 or more with disabled doesn't allow you to use other straps and dividers then list out the important bios settings here (like XtremeTiramisu has done here) or take screenshots of it and upload them (like ericab has done here) and then we can take a look at what might be going wrong

I just dont understand the way to revert back to the MF1004 BIOS if I need to? Can someone please explain this out? Thanks a million

simple, you flashed with the rf0219 right? now you just flash back to mf1004

for instance, you would've downloaded the AFU236U program, put it onto a bootable usb disk,alnog with the .rom file (RF2019.ROM) and rebooted into the usb drive.
then you would have typed.
C:\>AFU236U /IRF0219.ROM /PBNC /N
Rampage installed.

to revert back, put the .rom file MF1004.rom onto the usb drive and do the same as above

C:\>AFU236U /IMF1004.rom /PBNC /N
maximus is now installed



personally, the rampage bios is not for me, i just cant reach my previous 3.4G without raising the CPU voltage. i have tried every setting i can and many combinations of settings.
I still think it's my ram combo, never mind

so ive tested the rampage bios on the e6750 which only ran 400x8 fully stable on the maxi bios @ auto settings.. vcore/fsb adjusted

no matter the voltages anything above 400, unstable/flaky as hell

now on the rampage bios still @ auto settings.. vcore/fsb adjusted.. the e6750 runs fully stable @ 475x8

before, the temps.. especially the nb temp was hotter than the sun to the touch.. now cold as ice.. wtf?!? 20-30 degrees cooler what the bios shows

cant believe this is the same mobo

looks like ill be having fun testing the wolfies now

again mucho thanks! appreciated!

Now that's a success story.

Still contemplating grabbing one of these mobos open box. Does anyone have any extra MF's lying around, am very interested for a reasonable price.

My E8400 is sitting @ 450x9 w/8Gz on my IP35 Pro, is it worth it to tear apart my whole setup for this most wonderful mod?

Thanks Paul
