0095

[famich]

Regarding the overclockability 1 more :

I ve got 2 R3E, both topping at max BCLK 222 w/o the slow mode, so the "average " ones. All is dependant, as said before, on the quality
of the ICH chip.

Not a bad board, but for me a mixed bag of feelings

[PytonOrm]

i can share bios 0095 iam not like fire4wire.. iam glad to help and share

This one seems to be a 222BCLK board as well, but that's a heck of a lot better than the one I had before that couldn't even do 210MHz.

AWESOME

AWESOME

congrats dude to share once !!! did u fall on floor and hit your head dude ? just amazing

[PytonOrm]

just like that !! mabe santa its coming to him anyway this year, hows it going buddy ? glad to help u dude

btw !! i love your avatar

[AceBaran]

Doing fine! You made me

0095 is my favorite so far !

Yes shes HOT >_<

[AceBaran]

HA! Bios 0095 did it for me ...

Finaly i am stable @215 bclk ... gonna run more test and try lower volts.. but damn im a happy camper

I'm glad you did it! Just try to lower VTT, IMO it is too much for ~1300MHz RAM and I guess ~2600MHz UnCore.

[spoolindsm127]

Very nice AceBaran, congrats!

Just curious, I see you're running IOH Core at default (1.11v). Did increasing this not help in your case?

I usually see people running higher IOH Core voltage with BCLKs above 200. Either way great results, can't wait to try 0095 myself

congrats dude to share once !!! did u fall on floor and hit your head dude ? just amazing

dont stress me btw piss me off

who you are??

a little leecher who suck balls to get beta bios,why can you share,because some real dudes share the bios with you little fella

dont spam in future you suck buddy

That is the thing Don, it is the lowest i can go with vtt, anything lower and i get bsod 124 (uncore = 4092) and raising RAM i need even more vtt.. my chips memcontroler sucks xmas balls >_<.. but im in a early state of testing this bios.. so, now i know R3E CAN do it.. its all in the settings.

Tnx Spoolindsm127, atm im just happy i could run linX with this setup.. no earlier bios put me through it before. I will test tonight with more juice

Come on man, he was just joking.. no need for this.. keep it nice guys

[Fire4Wire]

this dude is a fool,and he didnt accept ASUS NDA (NOT share any BETA Bios)

Maybe in 10 years when he is older

[Ka0sX]

Well guys i had gotten a 980x last week ran the system on air for a few days then today i put it on water. now my problem is the TEMP is stuck its varys most of the time either site on 35c or 0c

i have put it back on air and its still doing same thing i don't have another cpu to try does this sound like the CPU problem or motherboard problem

I have also tried a crap load of bios's and same issue.

[Fire4Wire]

try bios 1102 this bioses fixes this issue asus told me

[[200]]

Something I've just noticed regarding bclks.
W3520 - 215
W3570 - 224
W3580 - 224

Interesting... That wasn't on slow mode either.

On another note there must be a clockgen that controls the QPI PPL voltage. Does anyone know where on the board it is? Perhaps a variable resistor might be put in place to increase voltage like on video cards for example. I am not saying it would work but just an idea...

[borntowin]

Anyone updated to the bios 0095 still facing the CPU high temp issue? Thank you.

i joke to you man dont make it so big thing of it dude! then i will say sorry Ok !!! none harm done

and i dont have asus rampage 3 longer so i dont need bios more...

merry Xmas to you anyway dude

I had a negative experience with 0095.
Pushing an overclock a little over stability edge, caused the impossibility to reboot, even unplugging AC from mains. When you pushed the ON button on the PC, it started for about one second and after it shot down by itself.
Solved removing the cmos battery for a while and clearing cmos with the rear button.

Back to 1102 for now.

bios 1203 has only ram compatibility fixes

nothing more

About that issue with powering on then off in a split of a second, I had it too, but can't remember why it happened (twice). It has a cause, that's for sure.
My solution was to hold a button for 2-3 (but not 4) seconds and the system would remain powered on. Don't go in BIOS, let it boot, then turn restart and go in BIOS. That's it IIRC.

I found this also when i tested my memory, never had to remove battery

...and in my system it broke the S3 Suspend to RAM wake up.

As it seems you have a preferential link with Asus BIOS development, what's about the user requested QPI PLL voltage settable and separated from CPU PLL?
