ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Thread

[xlr8]

Anybody with the E4300 CPU….Can you tell me how high you were able to push your FSB before you had to increase your stock volts?

[Kopi]

I have the e6300 and i went on stock volts up to 3ghz...that was something like 420fsb

Why do you need such a crazy rig? 450+ FSB on a 6300 and you aren't happy, you must REALLY demand a lot from your rig.

Perry, when are you getting yours lol.
Your 805 would do great on this board...

NP Ravin!

I'm going to hold off my getting a motherboard for now. Really need to get off this 1024x768 CRT bull****.

Getting a GPU cooler, LCD, then going to invest in a better motherboard probably sometime around Christmas.

Going to RMA my RAM in probably next Saturday. From the looks of it right now, though, I might not even end up doing it. Come Christmas when I get my mobo, chances are there are going to be better badder RAM out that I'll want, so spending an extra $50 now when I won't be using the extra OCing headroom doesn't really make sense, honestly.

This RAM is fine with this board, but one stick don't like past 950Mhz. Other is fine with it. They like low timings but not high speeds. 966Mhz 4-3-3-6 is about all I can push out of 'em.

And yes, I do want a lot of my rig. I don't like one part holding the rest of my rig back. If I had a $5000 computer, it'd probably be bone stock. But when my computer is less than $700 new, I want to be able to hang with the big boys.

Come on Kops. You can do better than that.


*edit*
See why I want 500+ FSB? I pulled 15.992 on my Biostar board within the first 30 minutes of having it, no tweaking, bloated OS, etc. I'm pretty much stuck with that time with what I got.

And I completely pwnt Windows 2000.
I thought my OC wasn't stable at 1860 anymore and was about to throw my computer out the window.
But turned out I corrupt Windows 2000 by trying to run 3-3-3-6 1T instead of 2T like I wanted to.

Ooops.
But before I kicked its ass with too low timings, I managed a lower Pi time.

[Kopi]

Sweet pook. Yes, i could probably do better..just gimme a couple weeks

[The Pook]

Holy hell.
My RAM is getting really wierd.

BSODs at 2.4v....won't POST at 2.5v...loves 2.3v.

***?
So far I'm not having any problems...
Windows XP was giving me the same problems as Windows 2000...
Just lasted a bit longer before a BSOD.
Only thing I did was lower vDimm voltage.
And now its sailing fine.
So far.


And with that said.
Kopi.
Good thing you have a week, Kopi.
Because then I'm back off to school.

[Kopi]

*** pook i think your ****s dying...slowly....ever so...slowly.

You know what im sayng? My stuff should be here on the 15th...i'm already back in school so i dont really know what your saying there

[The Pook]

Dying? No...dying would be if it needed 2.54v instead of 2.3v.
I never tried my RAM past 2.3v...so when I tighten timings I said **** it and tried it and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't POST.

I took out one stick, and it'll run at any voltage I want, so it's my RAM. I was thinking a bad cap somewhere that was killing my voltage to my RAM, so that it was actually getting the less the more I increased, but I checked with a multimeter and it was getting pretty damn close to what the BIOS said. Just that one stick.
(But it won't do 1T...so it doesn't matter if it can do past 2.3v or not.)

505 locked me into a 10 multy also. i went back to 401 and now i can lower it.
