i see, any word about this new BIOS ?


Which Slot are better for 2x1 Crucial Ballistix PC8500, or they will be the same either green or yellow slot.

Im testing it at the mo but it looks like im gonna be able to drop a few volt settings if i pass occt again. Ive also read that the green are more stable slots over the yellow.

I am not sure where I saw that 2, I thought it was on clunks.org.uk but he mentioned it was for the P35 and X38, not sure about the X48.

i wont be testin no more bioses not stable enough for me

as for the slots it has been said green is better but to me they both as good since i use 4 stix most of the time

Thnx zsamz, just flashed my BIOS and now the big work begins

*edit I just flashed the BIOS to 725, however I have notice few things.
From what i read in the earlier BIOS the cpu voltage overvolts with 0.05? accordingly what is set to @ BIOS. Here my Auto VID: 1.2075 in windows I ilde with 1.216. Any comments?

Other thing to note is: the vDIMM, I set in bios 1.916v and according to smart guardian and BIOS reading it is 1.84v, which out of these 2 readings is closer to real?

Anyone having standby issues with this mobo, I get that CF error everytime along with a black screen on resume.

[zfactor]

narc i had the same issue and for the life of me i dont remember what i changed but i did do something in the bios and it went away.. ill look at the bios when i get home.. take back any neg so far i have said right now im very happy with this mobo. it is strange in some ways of how it needs to be set compared to other brands or boards but once you get it there its just a bit of fine tuning. i also am finding the newest bios unstable i went back to 602 or 603 i dont remember the exact date and its rock solid again up to 4.2 with 1.32v and passed orthos all night long

[thenarc]

Thanks Z,

I couldn't be happier with the mobo aswell. Any advice regarding this little nag would be much apprec. I've been through the bios many times and enabled everything possible reagrding Pcie settings and power mang. and usb/super io settings.

[CERO]

Any know where I can get the 602 or 603 it is BIOS for the LT X48? Cant find it anywhere:S

[wilson]

Well i managed to pass occt but i cant get to 4.0Ghz again only 320 bios let me do that. I have managed to lower my nb and ram volt`s with this bios from 1.47 down to 1.39v and 2.2v down to 2.0v.

[Praz]

Well i managed to pass occt but i cant get to 4.0Ghz again only 320 bios let me do that.

Oke i got now 3 different values for the vDIMM, @ BIOSset 1.916 results in 1.87 @ BIOS reading. And smart guardian : 1.84. Which of those 3 are the closest to real?
Also this happends with all other voltages ( NBv/CPUVTT/) etc.

[SuporterPoli]

Thanks Clunk we now know were to measure the vtt,vcore and nb voltage and also the gltref voltages.Look here!
Thats the most accurate way to really know the values.

[zsamz_]

this is 602 bios verry stable for me its for ut x48 but you can use it

603 is x38

hey thnx zsamz does it atually voids warranty for example if your board dies and they found a UT bios in your mobo?
I know it abit ironic since using BETA bios in general would void warranty if anything happends.

If I want to flash it can I use this methode ( USB PEN, like I did for the 725 Flash) : http://www.csd.dficlub.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1136

yes
thats why i got some spare bios chips
not for warranty sake just for no headaches

hey zsamz , thnx for the advice, can the bios chips really ripped off with ease? So I just Pm him and ask if he could put the 602 BIOS of the UT X48 for me right? And is it possible to flash myself with a different BIOS afterwards, if so can I use any flash methode like on the stock BIOS chip?

yes no problem
i had 2 spare chips n i took one of em n hotflashed it on my ut p35
you can buy the tool or make one just need one of those compas kits that have 2 pointy ends n bend the tips
make sure you give him chip#s and the right file you want hes reliable and 10$ is good to
i stored away both original bios chips n runnin on biosdepot chips for a while now

Hey zsamz , what do u mean by chip #? where can I find the number? and by ripping of the chip u mean no tools are required, just a lil bit of finger nail?

hhehe ,and thats the number for the LT X48 right?
What tool do I need to remove it then?

*edit I figured the first 3 lines are the same except the last line, could that be the unique chip number?

This is new to me but is these any basic settings i should be looking at for my rig or is the default settings close enough? And DS/DDS and DLL is that all to do with the ram I also had the host slew rate set to strog with my GTL`s set manually is this ok?
Thanks Paul

[SimpleTECH]

Looks like I am having to RMA my LT x48.

Just got the RMA number.. anyone know how long it takes for them to process it and send out a new one?

[ScottFern]

Just bought a T2RS on Sunday! What is the best bios for OCing on this board?

Is everyone pretty much happy with this mobo?
