ASUS P5Q3 Deluxe discussion

Yes, it can be a bug with those memory sticks. I can't say for sure, cause I don't have those new blue ones myself.

Let's see how it goes with settings above! VNB can be higher, but you should not need anything higher than 1.4V at that fsb.

Mine is working fine with the CellShocks.
If you think you're having SPD issues, then let me know and I'll give you my SPD.

How far can you guys get with a wolfdale on air with this board. 550ish?

I was thinking about changing my quad to a dual, because I'd rather have the faster fsb than the extra 2 cpu's.

Would there be another board that would oc well with my 1800 ddr3? I guess really FSB speed is more important than fast ram at least for what I want.

thanks

Today I decided to test my 4GB G.Skill HZ (F3-12800CL7D-4GBHZ) memory set.

Results were similar to my previous tests with these sticks. Chips are D9JNL.

800MHZ 8-7-7-18, 2.0V (500x8)


854MHz 8-7-7-18 2.0V (533x7.5)


875MHz 8-8-7-18 2.06V (547x7)


900MHz 8-8-8-18 (2.08V) (563x7) starting to loose stability here...


916MHz 8-8-8-18 (2.08V) (572x7) not much stability left.


No problems with basic 800MHz settings (up to 875MHz)
Like I said earlier, these memory sticks did the same with X48 and 790i / 790i Ultra.

New P5Q3 revision is better than the old. That is for sure

[Chri$ch]

new P5Q3 rev.?

i have now 2GB CSX Diablo DDR3-2000 (D9GTR) on it

CL8 Dual 32M stable



CL8 max. 1M



CL7





600FSB



610FSB

Look back few pages and you see what I'm talking about

You have 2x1GB sticks and those are normal results for them. You must have the same rev that I do.

Those old rev. motherboards have a lot of problems with 2x1GB and 2x2GB sticks. Now we can see, that 2x1GB is doing 1GHz and 2x2GB can do 900+ MHz easily

Chri$ch can you tell us settings for your scores 1040mhz on rams ??
bios used ??

[lukas69]

yes thanks if can post your setting for take 2000 mhz ram

Received my board yesterday.
I got Patriot Viper 1333 CL7 2GB kit with it for starters.
This is what i got after trying it for a few hours.I am using the official 1103 BIOS.



Will be spending some more time with it today. Anyone here has any idea, what chips could be there in this kit ? I tried finding on the net but couldnt find anything.

[KanGaXx]

we need all settings for 1000mhz rams!!!

[Chri$ch]

@ aerie

FSB 500
divider 1:2
Timings 8-7-6-19
vdimm @ 2.06v (real ~2v)
vNB @ 1.38v (real ~1.32v)
vPLL @ 1.52v
vFSB @ 1.20v
LLC enabled

rest @ auto

[KanGaXx]

thx a lot for 1040 the same ?

strap ??
PL auto ?
alpha timings all on auto ?

[Chri$ch]

yep, all @ auto..

but i can set the PL to 7 for dual 32M

[KanGaXx]

strap 266,333 or 400 ?

[Chri$ch]

auto

you guys need to run 4GB and pcmark vantage at 1600+ and show us some stability?

Also is it confirmed that these boards have had a hardware revision? My old board here does not where near what these boards are doing now!

Yes, asus engineers did some (hardware) changes to this board. It can't be bios, cause new bios and old board is still a no go

[Chri$ch]

yes, it must be a hardware change.. i tried older bios and its no problem to boot higher FSBs and mem clocks.

But the Mainboard Rev. is the same (1.02G) as my first P5Q3 (which was crap!)

Edit: can someone try to boot with ~1.5 - 1.55v VCore on Wolfdale? i cant boot more than 1.49v, if i try more
my pc shut down after bios saving and wont boot.

[Tony]

Ok now we need high res photo's of the boards so we can see if it was a component change.

for all those who were early adopters of this board i hope you take note that there does look to have been a hardware change and you need to be talking to Asus regarding any memory issues.

I'll have some pics of mine up in about a minute. I purchased my board last week from New Egg and it has not been installed yet.

[Chri$ch]

ehm.. this is a Maximus II Formula and not P5Q3 Deluxe

[TouGe]

D'oh, wrong thread

[Chri$ch]

hehe
