ASUS P5Q-E (P45) pre-view

[Gr1mR34p3r]

Yes, Asus states here that the P5Q-E motherboard has the express gate (Linux OS) function.

But not on flash memory card, just to install it on hard drive, as far as I know, only P5Q Deluxe and better have flash card.

i've reached 500fsb with E8400 easy, still working on more...

Nice, I have big problems reaching 480+ on my P5K PRO.

Comparing Deluxe to this one, it has 16 phases, a heatpipe from NB to SB and Express Gate on a flash card. Still wondering which one to buy.

dide u notice my asus probe II

yes thats the only voltages u get to see
and also in the bios..

wazzup with that..

its like they are trying to reserve something for the maximus 2..
lcd + led+ voltage readings??

[vcp-cur]

The one blue and the two black slots are PCI-E.

wow man, i didn't even see those 2 black pci-e ... sorry, my bad

Sure its very handy to have such sensors, but only if they work correctly which isn't often the case. better measure the real voltage, and don't forget: smallest voltageoption in bios equals auto. Do you measured vdimm? Is yours overvolting about 0,1+ too?

i just put a vmm on nb and vdimm

vdimm overvolts about 0.038v

nb undervolts by 0.02v

Then i have to check my multimeter once again.
Where do you measured vdimm? in the socket?

actually the same points that u put on ure website..
i took it from there.

but i am running 4x1gb ..

E6700. I dont posted the link because im not sure about the minds of the people if they think its advertising etc. but if you are interested have a look in here:

It's german but i think you will understand pics and screenshots

Thank you , very nice review/pics.

With the P5Q DLX, do you only get the CPU/MB temp? is the MB temp for chipset?

[pmp]

Manual VCore works at least for 0302 for P5Q Deluxe, and 0402 for P5Q PRO. But FSB @ Wolfdale sucks a lot :|

yup i switch to xeon quaddies and its better on overclocking

for some reason i have a lot of difficulty to get the NB voltage and NB gtl right with a e8500 and e8400 for 500fsb..

even used the exact setting as my maximus/rampage/dfi x48.. no go ..

also weirder still for 400fsb need NB voltage at 1.4v.. whats up with that..

No problem

Yeah lol. I couldn't find correct gtls for my wolfi too and wasn't able to boot at high fsb. Because of this i sold wolfi today
Need to get another one. Do you have tested with newest bios 0501?

With conroe its no problem to get 560Mhz and higher. I hope that they do some improvement with further biosversions.
With the E6700 and FSB 560MHz i had ~1,35vMCH

What, NO. I have the same problem on my P5K PRO.
8x485 1.51V on NB works fine, anything over 485 and 1.51V results in a BS.
So these P5Q boards are no-go if my primary objective is 500+ FSB on wolfdale?

[Pt1t]

Someone could mp me bios earlier bios than 205 bios for P5Q-E

It seems very buggy ^^

FSB -> 560 single chan -> 540 in dual with E8500 ...

[Kean]

It's mean that its worse than P35?

Not yet, and frankly i'm not sure if i would like to waste my time

ATM, no if any advantages over X38/X48 was found
FSB ? it seems so, that P35 board are better...

0107 is older than 0205 man

[pmp]

So ? You wanted earlier than 0205 ? That's what i understood ;-)

[gugle]

what max fsb quad 65nm ?

[nobi125]

Any updates?

Can you post your BIOS settings/voltages?

[Chri$ch]

Bios 0702

CPU @ 1.15v
GTL 0/2 @ 0.63
GTL 1/3 @ 0.63
FSB @ 1.26v
PLL @ 1.52
vDimm @ 2.40v
NB @ 1.42-1.46v
NB GTL @ 0.55

CPU clock skew @ delay 400ps
NB clock skew @ delay 200ps

Good job Chrisch seems P5Q-E is coming along nicely now... hope now 5Q Pro gets better scores and we are all happy campers..., which board do you prefer for daily use P5Q-E or Dlx ? I still love my board to death...

i think i sell my Deluxe...

in germany is a big price difference

P5Q-E = 95EUR
P5Q-Deluxe = 143EUR

and the only difference i see is 8 phase vs. 16 phase
