ASUS P5E64 WS Evolution - Tips, Tricks, Mods, BIOS, OCing & More...

[Holmer]

So... I still wait for an answer...

pmp, where does that bios comes from ?!?

I don't know but I know you can trust the validity of the BIOS's he shares so don't worry and go ahead flashing (I just did).

[camouflage]

I know everybody will be happy

Yep - pmp, You're the man...............

And I spent so many nites tweakin' the 0115..............

This BIOS seems to be the golden one - only tested it for 10 min. yet but 3:5 divider works (200 strap), the refresh rate shown in memset changes now depending on the RAM speed, my RAM needs less Vdimm (0.2 - 0.4), it boots much faster and runs completely stable without need to set all the tweaks..... - I left all skews (RAM,NB,CPU) at AUTO and had no problems..........

Will do some further tests soon of course..........

Who's written this BIOS? I wanna donate a beer...........

Cheetah Cheetah Cheaath haha Yup. PM me if you have any q.

Hi Folks

I'm totally unable to get my computer to boot if I set 500fsb or more AND my memory stick -and that's the point I am lost with...- at their 900Mhz and latencies(8-7-6-21...). This regardless the strap / vnb(too much of this is really bad here) / twister thing and PL I could ever try to set Ah! also I tried DIMM 1+3 & 2+4 naturally

I didn't tried the skews at all because I think they are made to be adjusted on a valid set up, which is far from my actual case!

BUT: all this is possible: strap 200, 471x9 ram at 955, cas8: @ 1.9vddr and other strap, cas7 @ 2.1vddr.

These setups do 3Dmarks with succes:

I'm so lost, at the moment I saw arround hundreds of times that D4 code, which means according to the manual, "memory test".

Some one here has already given me lost of time to fix that, and 'did no matched unfortunately

I'd be so thankfull IF someone could try to help me again

Never in life got the fu..ing D4 code mate..........

Maybe You should give the G.Skill 1600 GBHZ a try....................

[ToyTen]

wow, are you the only one who can help ?

Thanks a lot mate

Maybe someone else has met that D4 code... who knows.
I can tell that it happens under all bios that ive tried and with cheap corsair/ocz/asus ram's, also with good low speed ocz and with my actual D9GTR-mounted Cell Shock sticks.

I'm getting quite sure it is my board that sucks arround DDR and Vnb...
I continue like this and see what goes on because I ordered some 14400 G-Skill yes, so I'll be fixed when they arrive.

Bye and have fun there

[camouflage]

I owned Cellshock black 1800, Cellshock blue 1866, Corsair Dominator 1800 and now the G.Skill 1600 GBHZ - it seems my board fell in love with this RAM........

Maybe with a different brand You have to change either PL or tRFC (88?) or RAM skew.............

[ToyTen]

trfc 88 is what I keep atm, and about the skews, not tried seriously yet. Do you think that might solve this? there are many skews setts since the new bios is out ... I'll give a try but looks very complicated to me at this time.
Also, does any body has issues with "high" (1.55v+) vNB ?

I run 1.45 vNB @ 500 FSB - above 500 I have to give 1.55 (550 - 580 FSB) - but my NB is under chilled water...........

I'm very happy with the new 0504 BIOS - here I can leave all skew settings at AUTO (RAM and CPU and NB) without getting any trouble.

But as I said - that's with the GF.Skill 1600 GHBZ - maybe different RAM needs some more finetuning on it.

buenas

good news at last, the board was really dead and the store exchange it for a new one that arrives today

lets see how the tests goes and maybe i´ll flash to 0504 later

I'm sorry to read that it "died" and glad for the ecovering of it ... May I ask you what happend please? Be ready for the fsb you mifgt reach with 0504
With more performing cooling than mine on the NB, you will certainly reach 630 bro

Bye and have fun

[jpcastro]

it simply died after a reboot i was not doing anything special

for now i will not push it to the "limit" for safety reasons and other motive is because already buy 2 x 4870 that will be a priority tests in the next days.

but of course i´ll post results in the thread specialy ram tests with the 0504 bios to see it there is any improvement, high FSB´s for me is not very important because we dont need to use for 24\7.

[ToyTen]

Without doing anything special gosh!!

ok for the duo of HD 4780 waiting to see high scores then

Bye

That was the mistake.............

No,to get serious again, I'm happy to hear You already got a replacement.

[camouflage]

First FSB test 7.5 x 600 with new BIOS 0504 - notice RAM is not tweaked here & set to 1:1 - only testing FSB:



Not maxed out - boot up & runs fine even at first try so there will be more FSB potencial.

back from the dead new board has arrive yesterday

that 0504 bios is revealing alot of potencial must trie as fast as possible but the 4870 cards only arrive next week so for now no 3d

As I said - 0504 is a winner - also for vid cards......................

[ToyTen]

I don't know what the (unno what, ****) with that mobo:
bios 0504; 1.57vnb; 1.5 vfsb; 1.5 vpll; strap400
spi1m freeses as I click on OK....

not that good I think but I'm glad.(not wishing to get that h24 stable huh ! )
Made with:
-1,57 vnb
-1,5 vfsb
-1,5 vpll
-1,2vsb
-GTLRefcpu 0.67
-GTLRefnb 0.61
-COC 1.00
-LLC perf

I can't say much for my 3DM01 score, but I am happy about the fsb. The new bios is heaven sent. I didn't ever think I could run 600fsb with this 8500 chip. Actually I'm running 614 fsb atm. If I can run 01 all the way, I'll add screenshots. I'm also very happy with the G.Skill PC3-12800CL7

I just noticed vcore is set to high.

[jpcastro]

alo

mounted the system a few hours ago, flashed to 0504 and tried some ram tests but still cant get 1T even at default DDR1600

something is not right here all the HZ that have seen works with 1T, tried already camouflage settings since that the hardware is the same and no way simply reboots after windows bar appears

bad luck or bad sticks?

btw good results runmc

[runmc]

I have the same memory as Camo but I'm running at 2.10v on the ram I can't run performance level at 8 with CL7

[jpcastro]

with 2T there is no problems, DDDR1800 7-7-7-18-60 PL7 \ Stronger daily use but with 1T as i said not even at default

diden´t push the vdim more than 2,0v because asus boards makes overvoltage of 0,6v +/- and also because i don´t have a fan to cool them, even with 1,9v are extremely hot but also 30º degrees of ambient temp "helps" alot !
