I've repeated this several times... the max on this board is only 1.313v, that's it, it's so low even when it's maxed out it's ridiculous. The more this thread progresses the more I get the feeling people aren't reading any of it. Or that somehow they wandered into the wrong forum. If I'm scared of the voltages, on this or any other motherboard then it's time for me to go to bestbuy and look at gateway. If I want to build a kickass system and oc the snot out of it then I come here. There are dozens of places in between those 2 points. If people want to know where to start overclocking and setting up voltages for this great mobo then I suggest a good place to start is page 1 of this thread. I see people wanting to be spoonfed. READ! Then read some more. If someone has a faulty board, damn that sucks. Talk to MSI tech support, RMA it and get one that isn't faulty and then get on with it.[/RANT]
Okay I'm cool with that dude but as to which performance Bios can I still use?..Performance BIOS P05?
or Performance BIOS P07 for a Kentsfield Q6600Go SLACR @3,6Ghz normal vid 1,325 I guess.. cooled by Antec H920 on an MSI P7N Diamond
MOBO with 8GB dual Channel KHX8500D2K2/4G DDR2 PC2-8500 2x2G 5-5-5-18-2T and still 2 XFX9800 GTX+'s in SLI mode powered by an 750W HX Corsair PSU.Because I myself noticed the whole sytem running more stable like as to where you only have to input the right vcore voltage like 1,4-1,45
CPU GTL REF :65
FSB TERMINATION: 25
leaving everything else on auto is much more simpler than trying to mess with the normal +1.0 +2.0v settings or not..?
and supposedly putting NB on 1,425 with an extra fan on the NB will that help..?
WHat more can I or do I have to do instead of tweaking all the voltages except CPU GTL Reference or FSB TERM?Because with the 123 bios or p05 Bios it should be simpler right...?Plz tell me what I can do to get an stable gaming rig, Because the normal setting of 65-25 or 70-25 isn't enough..Or should I try with 400 x 8 to downclock to 3,2 Ghz with Performance Bios P05? Since you're the one to ask, could you tell me where to get it..? Or can I ask you to mail it for, cos I can't find it anywhere..I see some forums with the bios name in it but no upload or download link..Many thnx in advance ^^
