Bench, what do you think of the P04 BIOS?

Haven't tried it yet.
I'm currently finishing a laptop repair and then I'm gonna fire up the BloodRage for some testing.
I'll let you guys know as soon as I have something to say

Fantastic numberrs...



What was your CPU VTT (uncore voltage) for that run,

thanks! I loved this motherboard!

You find the problem? I sthill have the X21----> X20 multiplayer drop ??
Its not because the Volts are to high or the temps , then wy ???

Ive, just started playing around with this board now (currently priming my 920 @ 3.8ghz) and had a quick question about Turbo mode. I take it speedstep (EIST) has to be enabled for it to work?

When I have it set to always, and EIST enabled it seems to work fine (the multi doesnt drop below 21 at all) however I get voltage fluctuations with my vcore that i dont get with it disabled. I'm presuming thats EIST adjusting voltage on the fly? but it makes it very hard to test specific voltages for an overclock.

Do you have CxE enabled ? If yes, disable it.

[anubis_is_evil]

cant wait to see the board available in my country...really anxious for the price tag...wanna go with i7, and this board is always on my mind arrghhh !

btw, did anyone tried to release the pipe cooling solution that from mosfet-NB-SB from the board...wanna know if mcw 30 will fit on the NB-SB...i just cant trust for block that comes from the board it self..

thx..

I got the same issue than jooney, cpu doesnt stay to 21X on vista

Edit : it s OK now, i turned CPU turbo to always on.

something is bugged here

WHILE bclk > 222 DO
set Multiplier = 9;
print " ";

I can't select the option "ALWAYS ON "?? just enabled or disabled ??
i'm currently using the PO4 bios.
almost giving the multiplayer drop UP

same bios.

But i cant find how to get >215 Bclk

CxE was disabled, i just double checked. Not a major issue, im testing with turbo mode off atm. Currently priming 4ghz (211x19) will be dead pleased if i can get 24/7 stability at those clocks!

QPI Voltage 1.7V
300ps CPU Clock Skew
100ps NB Clock Skew
1.24 - 1.28V NB ( actively cool the chip, Foxconn's fan is just fine )

1.7V, with this cpu i have 1.57V for 230 on p6T6

[MikeMK]

This is as far as ive got atm on my 920:



Pretty pleased it does 4ghz... do the voltages look acceptable for 24/7 use? uncore is 1.33v, NB 1.28v and as you can see in the pic, vcore is 1.39v (a little higher than I would have liked). BTW, I couldnt see QPI voltage in the bios? Maybe im being blind... i'll go have another look

Is there any Bloodrages for sale in the US yet(not preorder), I need a second for my Home Entertainment Center build.

thanks in advance.

Bloodrage Rocks.

You have to remove a resistor

[M.I.K.E.Y]

You have to remove a resistor

What !!!?? remove a resistor? where did you read that
you are talking about "THE FOXCONN x 58 BLOODRAGE "wright ??
cant they just fix it with a bios update like all the other "HIGH END" manufactors ??
Sjezus , this mobo is about to become a Hero or a Zero for me

They will fix it via a bios update in a few days.

[MikeMK]

Can anyone help me with the voltage read pads on the board. Wanna check my actual volts, but its pretty hard to read which pad relates to which voltage with the mobo in my case... can someone specify from left to right please? would be very much appreciated!

[jooney]

Nice to hear

[s002wjh]

just curious some one put some bio setting in this forum on how to reach higher cpu clk 4ghz+ 24/7. i can't seem find it anymore. ne1 know where is at?

[M.I.K.E.Y]

They will fix it via a bios update in a few days.

Says who ??
let us hope that they fix it

Guys, can u confirm that the pad marked in the pic below is for uncore voltage? Its reading 1.33v on my DMM, where as everest is reading it as 1.38v. Wanna make sure before i start increasing voltage as its one hell of a difference.



Also, there doesnt seem to be a readpad for vdimm as far as i can tell... which is annoying. Correct me if im wrong!
