Modded ASUS P5Q/Pro/Deluxe/Premium BIOS

I can't figure out what the 'FSB Strap to NB' option is supposed to do. When set non-Auto it would seem to force a certain divider where Auto would calculate one from FSB and DRAM clock settings. But if that's true then 'FSB Freq', 'Strap', and 'DRAM Freq' should be mutually exclusive. You could set two of the three, but not all three - at least not to mutually exclusive values.

What am I missing?

Yep , yep.....add that one among the many, many other features/seatings on that page. I wish there was a step by step guide. Or rather, just a line by line definition with a brief explanation and maybe one or two "for instance"
type of things.

I've been screwing around with this Mobo/CPU for 2 weeks now and just tonight got the fuzzies to up the FSB to 333 , setting ram vcore at 2.1 and left everything else on auto. Booted right up. Temps were a tad high for me so I checked vdim and it was at 1.42
So I rebooted and set it at 1.325. It was a shot in the dark number but knew it was close based on what I have read so far. Again, booted right up....now temps 10 C cooler. Until I find out more about each setting. I'm just gonna leave it here for now and play around another week I guess.

Perhaps you meant vcore? vdimm is for RAM, and I highly doubt there's any DDR2 RAM kit that actually boots at 1.42V.
And yeah, 1.42V on a 45nm CPU is something to be scared off with normal air cooling.

Yeah, sorry. I meant vcore was at 1.42. I adjust Vdimm for the Ram to 2.1 as per the specs. My bad
