EDIT: Celebrated too early and when watching movies, had freezes ! I thought it was because of failed Overclocks from before but I got BSoD while installing XP, so I thought, maybe the SB needs a boost? Went to BIOS and put 1.55v for SB and now everything works like it should be, no more BSoDs with movies or while installing XP. Im a happy SIIE owner now! Should I say thanks ASUS?

TODAY IS Victory-DAY (V-day)

Im finally (Yes! Finally!) estable with my Striker II Extreme at 1800mhz FSB with 1600mhz RAM WITH (yes! WITH!) P1 and P2 enabled!... 25 Hours!!!!



--------------------------------



Now that I know my system is ROCK estable with Prime 95 running for more than a day, is time to stress the RAM
BTW, reading should be 11256Mbs but I think after 25 hours of priming, the RAM is really loaded :P

Ill post my settings as soon as I finish eating lunch

Those are settings that I've been using on air for ages.
Notice I'm saying to put a fan over the northbridge.

Yeah but you have your stuff out on a desk dont you? Plus an 80mm fan on top of the NB. Thanks anyways for the settings but I really dont need to try this since Im 100% estable now

Hi slim,
I know you're still testing your configuration ... but are the settings (posted in your signature) stable? Can I give them a try?

Yes, what I have on my signature is 100% estable for me, except that I couldnt tolerate 8800mbs of reading from memory (this, of course, was the result of having P1 and P2 on Auto), but now, I can guarantee to you that 0703 is so far the BEST BIOS for me and Im 100% estable with P1 and P2 enabled.
Try my signature settings if you want to give them a try... Im on air so it should be safe to anyone.
