Decent board so far, might need a bios update or three to get it rollin'

Anyone else have this board? Any issues?

[ReverendMaynard]

Here's some stock cpu clock/volts action.

[ReverendMaynard]

just a small bump but promising.

[ReverendMaynard]

Just encountered the first issue. Boom... out of no where the entire screen goes into artifacts and the system crashes. Trying more vcore just out of curiosity.

[FireDragon]

it is your 5770 was it lines? or was it almost like an old school fill rate test? i have noticed that for w.e resaon upping your PCI link will help this also by keeping your ht and nb at a decent ratio i have already been fighting with taht on my Crosshiar III, go take a look in teh ATI section there is a thread on it (5850's and all the other do it also)

Hey Fire, it wasn't the same type of artifacting scenario as the low volts/157 core speed lock up. The whole screen just goes completely disco ball. To describe it, it looks like a raw processor wafer lol.

Sorry to sound noobish, but by PCIE link do you mean frequency or is there another setting?

[cozmosland]

just up the vcore abit. on my cpu which has the same stepping im running the dual at 3.9ghz and 1.44 volts and 3.3v to northbridge running 2400mhz

hmm thinking about getting this mobo for a X4 620 ? wonder if ill be able to unlock L3 cache

howz the bios treating ya? looks they have updated bios to F9 with core control option

Needs a 10x memory multiplier Should be able to do whatever you want unlock wise. As for the bios version, it's still on F1, remember this is the "333" board

[tbone8ty]

oh yeah my bad, haha

[ReverendMaynard]

She loves the v's but for $100 I'll risk it lol

[neo mike]

Little high on the cpu voltage for 3.9 ghz, try about 1.42.

[ReverendMaynard]

ain't happening. Won't even get to the OS load screen under 1.5v.

[ReverendMaynard]

We'll, I figured it out. 8x memory multiplier is useless. So 1 notch down, .1v increase on the NB and a little lower vcore (for now). Next I'll go for more FSB. After XMas, I'll hit it with some DICE.

It must be running 75C+ at full load (assuming 1.55v+ and stock cooler), be careful.The ACC (when turned on) screws the temp readings,not sure if you know why it's showing -256c.

Never seen it hit over 55C. I have the CM 212 Plus on it with push/pull Scythe's. I get the temp from TMPIN2 from what I've been told is close to correct. It's -8 outside, window open and I'm going into hypothermia lol.

[ReverendMaynard]

Not that many care lol, but I'm now doing some HT testing. So far, it's much more stable at a lower mem ratio. Need better latency to really see it shine though. Gotta love those Canadian open window sessions lol. Never passed 42C during 1024m wprime.
