"ASUS P5Q Deluxe discussion".

Try these mate, I just have a suspicion the Tracers just need more voltage for +1000mhz operations...

Guys...I'm having trouble increasing the frequency of my memories
I did some tests here. In my previous over, everything was perfect with the cpu, and now that modified the settings of memories, the errors appeared, then there is no doubt that the memories are unstable.
I tested this:
ASUS P5Q DLX Template :

JumperFree Configuration Settings
AI Overclock tuner: Manual

Ok, well 1.54 failed large FFT's after 17mins. I am back to 1.6PLL and still at 1.32VTT and 1.3NB. Is all this ok? With your settings I was passing small FFT's all day but when I switched to large FFT's I got quick failures at 1.3125. Is there anything else? Also I am kind of scared about turning off CPU TM and setting PCIE to 101 instead of 100 I have heard 101 can damage your video card, is that just a preference or is that something that is vital to keeping stability. I heard that a good rule about VTT is to keep it very close or slightly above your Vcore, is that right? So when I try for 3.6 I should keep all your settings the same except rais the VTT to match the vcore? Is that right?

Try an OCCT mix, if that passes no worries... I never run Large, seems to crash within the hour on some of my OC's, yet rig is 24/7 folding stable, game stable and benchstable...
Just up the Vcore and the multi and test mate... if not stable try a bit more Vcore , if no go try to mess with FSB Term and co...
