yesterday i try mbios 2102 on my p5q(non pro), i was really interested cause my 2x2gb gskill pi where in qvl. so i flashed with ezflash. i think the boot logo is the same. so i not sure if it works. but may ram is 1063Mhz 5-5-4-15 stable. and was really unstable before even at 1000mhz 5-5-5-15. and my q6600 @3.0 use a minimun of 1.29v before anything less than that result in prime95 fails after a couple of minutes. and now i have it test it with 1.24v for half an hour with prime and its rock solid.

great bios

i,ll try the p5qm tonight. hope is even better!!!

I tried using the modded BIOS for the P5Q Pro Turbo, unfortunately I still cannot run stable at DDR2-1066 with my 8 GB of Corsair 8500C5D chips in a 4x2GB configuration. I either have to run DDR2-800 or take out 2 chips. I know the RAM is fine because it works in another motherboard using the nvidia 780i chipset. I've tried pumping the NB voltage and memory voltage with no success. I've tried playing with the AI settings and putting it to Light or Lighter. Tried higher performance levels, turning off spread spectrum. The system will BSOD with memory corruption every time any bit of load is put on it. I can crash it within seconds by running Prime95.

Does anyone have any solutions to make my RAM run at its rated speed? I'm not even trying to overclock. Although, I will say I can get to 3.6 Ghz on my QX9650 by raising the FSB to 400 and it's stable.

I also would love to see a modded 0602 BIOS for the P5Q Pro Turbo board but unfortunately I'm not an expert to be playing with it on my own.

By occupying all DIMM banks you are going to be putting a lot of strain on the chipset. When all banks are occupied its also basically mandatory to relax memory timings. For example; if you have set 5-5-5-15 @ 1.8v, try setting 5-5-5-18 1.9v or 5-5-5-21 @ 2v.

All right thank you.

Finally with 2201



Stable under LinX & OCCT

please my friend. send me the settings from the motherboard. can hardly go into 4 with less than 1.38v. i have 2201. thanks

I guess the P45 chipset is just crappy then lol. 780i had a lot of other problems not to mention lack of support from nvidia because they don't make chipsets anymore but at least I could run DDR2-1066 with 8 GB of RAM.

Oh well, I guess I just deal until I get fed up with it and buy an i7 with DDR3

As you can see above i´ve updated the original Asus P5Q Pro Turbo Bios 0602 with the Intel Raid Rom 9.6.0.1014 and the JMB368 Option Rom 1.07.11.

Feel free to modify it, but please post your versions here ;-)

Hi mrosen, may you please re-up the file to another file host? and if there are newer and better mods for P5Q PRO Turbo 0602, may you please provide link to download? Thanks in advance!

before loose timings/raise voltages etc...
try to RE-position the ram in different slots than what are now.. back in '07 that was MANDATORY when i was using 4x1gb sticks, among from the 24 possible combinations, i had results from non posting to total stability with all "tones" in the middle. With 4x2gb setup, i messed up a weekend and found it was more "blurry" to find the right combination, had to narrow down to 5-6 combinations and repeated tests (memtest 5) until find a "good" one. Another "shortcut" approach proposed by others, is to sort -relatively- quickly the 4 sticks in terms of overclockability and place the best one closest in cpu and the worst in the most far socket.

Hi nickp85, run FSB/DRAM ratio to 1:1 is all you need... it's best for overclocking!

Last EVER mBIOS I'm going to do for the P5Q Series. This one is for the P5Q Pro Turbo. mBIOS is based on official 602. Check out the changelog in the archive for details.

Thanks Ket, I wish I can learn and master the art of modding BIOSes. So I can help extend your legacy!!!

[Quad-Damage]

I need a new Bios

I have a E8500 C0 on H20 and it's not very stable in gaming now, it's at 4.1ghz

On a P5QE

Anyone have any settings input or a good bios to change to, I have the old bios the Ket made about a year ago on it like 1204 or something like that I don't remember.

It's a 1.37 volt
at 426

[Ket]

You don't need a new BIOS for that. E8500 C0 has been supported since BIOS 506.

[Carsten]

Ket - vill you upload an mod 2301 version for P5Q deluxe ?

kindly
Carsten

[icewaere]

Hey Ket,

thx for great work!

plz you can do a Mod for P5QD Turbo 0301 Bios?

hope its possible and big thx if yea have time for that

Ket - will you upload an mod 2301 version for P5Q deluxe ?

[Solo1]

Hi Folks - Great thread here. Kuddos to OP for great effort and talent.

I am thinking of buying the Pro Turbo (rebate ends today), but would like to know, if possible, if my Patriot extreme performance memory will be compatible with this board. I would like to use 6GB (2x1 of PDC22g8500ELK and 2x2 of PDC24G8500ELKR2 R) from my Asus P5b-plus Intel p965 board.

Has anyone on this thread had success using this memory with the Turbo Pro?


My thanks in advance.

[Quad-Damage]

I'm having issues in gaming with my system currently?

What should I change? I get video issues with my ATI 4850 and now my GTX 460

It will go blank and crash out of the game. It's not the video card driver or the video cards, all cards are doing it for me. I have test 4 different cards.

I have a E8500 with A C0 @ 4ghz

I have a nice water custom system with 3x E fans and a 3x Swift Rad and a Swift block. I just changed the water MCP655 Liquid

My teams never go over 45 c and idle about 30ish

I'm trying to push around 4.0ghz or 4.2 stable? What should I change?

I have a P5QE

Should I flash to a new bios?

[Ket]

Its always worth flashing to the Latest BIOS or using one of my modded BIOSes for your board. It sounds like to me the specific problem you are having is more down to your CPU just not being stable. Back down your multiplier so your CPU runs around a moderate 3.6GHz or so, then retest. Id also bump vFSB and NB voltage up, at least to 1.3v to hopefully rule it out as a problem.

Hi ket, thanks for your hard work and congrats.
I´m using your latest 2101m for the p5q-e, you didn`t customize the logo in this one, did you? (forget about it, i already read your answer to this question)
I cleared the cmos after updating but didn´t see any major change, my memory and cpu were running just fine with the original bios so I tryed yours in order to improve my oc, but so far no changes.
I had to reinstall the ethernet drivers, connection was really wrong after update and now its working better than before, less ping (from 33 to 27 to my isp).
Thanks again

Morning gentlemen. Keep your eyes peeled for a edit to this post if you are a P5Q, P5Q Pro, P5Q-E, P5Q Deluxe, or a P5Q Premium user. I'll be uploading some modded BIOSes based on the latest available.

Here you go, one link containing all the modded BIOS files. See the release notes for your BIOS for full details. Now, obviously, I don't own any of these boards so haven't been able to test the BIOSes, but there shouldn't be any problems. As always feedback is welcome.

Hi Ket!! and everybody, of course...you cant believe it, but just today i have purchased an P5Q-DLX mobo to continue using my 8 Gb of Ram and my old Q6600-G0 (maximus formula , runing at this moment, but... bye! bye! X38) and i've reading all this posts during about 6 hours this evening and 2 mins. ago i were very confused about which bios was better to download, this one, or perhaps that other... and when finally i find your last bios mod the link is broken!!...Could you (or somebody) post to me a new direct link to download the bios? (better, always if it's possible with asus 2.1 slic into it.)

Thanks in advance, sorry for my poor and terrible english and congratulations for all you modders!!, your doing a great and hard job!!

Best whishes...Rob
