"ASUS P5Q Deluxe discussion".

[Rylo]

Got my hands on a E8400 and P5Q-Deluxe.

Which bios performs best?

And could anyone post me some settings in the form of a template for a Wolfdale E8400 and Corsair Dominator TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF (2x2GB 1066) -> 445 x 9

Anyone

I knocked off 2miliseconds off my memory timings with the 1102. I have no problems with it right now. I tested it occt stable last night @ 480 x 8 3.833GHz. I don't think prime95 blend likes my vista 64 because I corrupted my last OS install trying to get it stable but yet the small ffts were 100% stable forever. I say 1102.

U used prime64v256, right? Never had problems with it on my vista x64

Then again I'm not responsible if it messes your or anyone elses system


EDIT: Hmm. actually I have not used its blend test that much. Too hangoverish. My brains not working properly
Going to test blend right now and see what happens xD

Forever eh?


Stability is just that.......stable!

Small FFT's means jack imho regardless of what people say. I've seen overclocks pass Small FFT's for hours and hours on end but then fail without doubt when running Large FFT's.

Personally I'll always run Large FFT's to test stability, if it passes Large then I'm satisfied.

An oc may seem fine because it passes Prime Small FFT's...........whether it will pass Large FFT's is another thing though. I'm not alone in this understanding that Large FFT's causes more stress on the overclock than Small, and there are quite a few others around that will test stability using Prime Large FFT's specifically for this reason.

Uh...just in case you don't already realize this, sounds like your RAM isn't too stable.
If blend if causing your OS to corrupt, well yeah...
