Asus P6T Deluxe Discussion Thread

I thought 3841A is commonly seen as a descent OC batch.



You should also disable any power saving option. I believe it was in the "advanced section" of the bios where you can also find HT. You should disable C1E, Intel speedstep (notice that turbomode also disappears) and Intel C-state. Obviously you could try to enable them as well later, after finding a stable OC. Furthermore I would disable "CPU spread spectrum" and "PCIE spread spectrum" in the AI tweaker menu. Finally disable all unnecessary features you don't use e.g. Marvell controller(s), ExpressGate, etc. for a faster boot up.

Does the S3 option work correctly on the Asus board? I thought I read somewhere on the internet that hybernation and sleep modus didn't work correctly on the P6T Deluxe yet.

Works like it should for me, but I am not OCing...yet.

The hybernation bug is a result of vista not the board

asus posted a fix to set a jumper on the board from +5 to +5VSB

havent tried it myself yet, but worth taking a look at

This phenomenon may be caused by VISTA OS. VISTA does not allow system to enter Standby mode, if "Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby" for an USB or PS/2 wake-supported device (such as mouse or keyboard) has been checked under "Device Manager", while the USB or PS/2 port has not switched its power mode to +5VSB that allows delivery of standby power to USB or PS/2 ports under soft OFF state. Because VISTA enables this standby option per default, and motherboards often set USB power modes to +5V at the same time, these two settings may result in conflict, hence resulting this phenomenon.

To resolve this, simply uncheck "Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby" for your USB mouse and PS/2 keyboard under "Device Manager", if you do not desire to wake the system via your USB mouse and/or PS/2 keyboard.

If you would like to wake your system from USB or PS/2 devices, please turn off your PC, set the appropriate USB port or PS/2 port jumper from +5V to +5VSB. Please follow the instructions in your user manual. Then your system will be able to enter and wake from standby mode as you desire.
