0115 :p

I'd like to test other bioses, but is it for sure that I will be stuck way under 590 fsb?

And an interresting thing: If one looses fsb ability, isn't it interesting concerning other things like more easy NB straps or more options in bios or again better Ram OCing/compatibility ? or whatever else ??


Could other happy owners of this board report their experience in bioses comparison in that way? (more or less fsb seems to meet everyone's agrement, but the other things mentionned above in this post? )

from a little test of 0401,its better for high ram speed.
With 0115 i m not able to use the 1/2 divider.
With 0401 its ok, BUT.. 480 and 1/2(rams @ 960) i am getting errors on memtest86+.
500 and 1/2(rams @ 1000) its error free :/ doh

i ll test the 0201 soon

[ToyTen]

ok, that's a good thing, accepting to loose high fsb then :/

thx

I received Corsair XMS31600 4GB. The ram doesn't like high voltage (up 1,96-1,98v) and very high frequency but works 1800 C7 1T






the system




next time I run spi 32

[ToyTen]

Could you make the 32 at 4Ghz or 3,6ghz please ? thx

xm..
Man this is for P5E3 Premium.
Here we talking about P5E64 WS Evolution

[ToyTen]

should I give it a try while playing & benching on 3870X2 ? cuz I hardly enough left the original bios, so, ..

I have a strange issue - with BIOS 0401 (didn't test anyone else so far) I can only boot 1:1 divider (i.e. 8x563) or 1:2 divider ( i.e. 9x500) but all other dividers don't work for me.... - it doesn't even boot....

So I wonder why I can't run higher RAM speed @ hi FSB.............

Anyone else with the problem? Is it a bug of the 0401? How about 0115 ???

Thanks !

Sav, please please post detailed settings and more extensive stability testing at DDR1800. I can still not get my 2x2GB 1800 MHz Dominators stable for even af few loops of SuperPi 32 M with loose timings. xt0m have been very kind to provide me all his settings for FSB 450, DDR1800 but these settings are not at all stable on my system (of course with an appropriate CPU multiplier corresponding to what I know my CPU can handle).
Man I had a pair of those sticks you are using when I still had my dreadfull SIIE. I have to figure out whether my memory og the user is faulty

Thanks !

I just left the 0115 tonite nothing is improved with this 0201 for me...
by hearing this, I'll get back to it quiet soon, avoiding the one you flame !

I am having this problem also but I am very new to this board and I don't know what I'm doing yet with bios 0401

[OverClocker_gr]

as i said few posts before.
If you want fsb go with 0115

where can it be found

here you go

its the original 0115 bios from the asus

Sav, which slots do you put memory in the blue or the black ones? I just read a review of the memory I got (see sig): http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/mem...800-4gb_2.html in which they write: "these modules will only work in black DIMM slots on ASUS mainboards". I put my sticks in the blue A1, B1 slots so I will test the black slots when I get back to work. I will give an update to this ASAP.

Same here - every morning when I get up and have to go to work......

BTW, anyone here with this board running a divider except 1:1 or 1:2 ?

Yes exactly, thanks for fixing the link (what I am refering to is on page 2 http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/mem...800-4gb_2.html).

alo again

made some more tests after seeing camouflage results and still can´t have 1T simply freezes on POST or reboots when windows bar appers

don´t know what else to do, even with loose timings and at default SPD is not stable and all problems disappear if i use 2T very easy to push them after that.

also with the dividers is the same problem, 1\1 and 1\2 nothing to say but if use another divider don´t boot

lets wait for new bios revision it seems 0401 still very green or in this case very blue

SaV good to see those corsair 4gb sticks, next month i´ll probably buy and upgrade to a 4gb kit but for now just wanna wait and see the kits avaiable in the market and choose one that works fine with the mobo.

Putting the memory in the BLACK slots DID the trick. At least I completed a 32M SuperPi in the first attempt at 450x8.5 DDR1800 after changing the memory from the blue to the black slots. Need to tweak and test much more to truely stabilize but I am very happy since when using the blue slots I never came close to finishing this simple test irrespective of CPU speed.
I have also Memtested at 421x9.5 for 16 h and Primed for 5.5 h without errors before changing the position of the memory so I have high hopes of finally stabilizing at (at least) 450x9 - we will se if I succeed.
I will post settings when I can claim they are stable.

Found this one over at review... Will try later today
