[Team.AU] Gigabyte GA-EP45T Extreme - P45 DDR3 Monster

[jooney]

Muah,so what now,has it "CPU References" right now or does it come later?

[boblemagnifique]

finally , today i test my EP45T Extreme

First test with my Q9550 (WR) just on Aircooling !!!

For the moment , i test with the bios origin (F2) , i wait the news bios béta without the vdroop enormous with the Quad Core !!!

Impressive Fsb on air , it's better with my Biostar TP45 HP (521mhz on air) , maybe broke 560x8.5 under caskade or LN2







I have too the Screen a 536/537x8.5 but the database of Cpuz is Out today

[jooney]

Nice one with a quad
What are your settings and have you "CPU References" in the bios?
Can you make a screen?

[T_M]

CPU Reference does not exist in the current BIOS.
Why are you so desperate about that minor setting?

[jooney]

CPU Reference helps a lot to get my quad over 475FSB primestable.
Its like GTLs on DFI Boards.
The P45-DQ6 and Extreme DDR2 Version has it,why not this one?

What about changelog ?

[Benny Lodewijk]

just got this BIOS too. Will test it tomorrow

my T will arrive today

Like i see , board doesnt have dual channel issue with high fsb like DDR2 board.

So far with F3B BIOS, maximum 600 MHz dual channel and 615 single channel. Hope F3C BIOS can give some improvement especially on FSB and memory divider.

[T_M]

I can get over 600 stable with f3b, but i hope F3c can get the RAM dividers working!

Gigabyte BIOS engineer didnt realise we didnt have this BIOS yet, so i told em to start spreading it

Great stuff thanks T_M

Lets see if this can get me benching over 6G (still stuck at 5940 for benching )

[Harshal]

Thanks Tim. If I get a chance will try it with my E84.

Thanks for the BIOS, will try it with the E8400 in a second. Do the memory dividers work? Sick of running the 1:1 divider

Yes, the memory divider works fine, but some of them can't work properly. I can get 900 Mhz (DDR3-1800) with 1:2 dividers and stable, more than that it gives me blue screen and i can't change the Command Rate. Runs 2T even if you change it 1T in BIOS. Will post the screenshot and FSB achievement soon.

K, command rate never worked so far and I've had DDR3-1800 7-6-5-18-2T working once for about 30 minutes before I screwed up a setting in F3B. Hopefully with another BIOS revision or two we'll have DDR3-2000 working with command rate. Need to finish writing a review before I can play with the new BIOS

Presumably you guys are getting those RAM clocks on quads?
Try running a dual and anything other than 2.00D, thats where my major problems are.

No.. i'm running it with dual core E8400. Below a screenshot...

someone else tried F3C and 3:4 ? I tested all and i find that is best one for high ram clock > 600mhz fsb.

I try it and i'm stuck at 600mhz fsb http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=398795 . Any special setting to reach 630+ mhz fsb Thomas ?

[Benny Lodewijk]

Another screenshot, shows memory dividers works fine :

[T_M]

Oh, only 500fsb.
Try higher?
