Asus P5N32-E Overclocking Guide - Page 503 - Overclock.net

AMD+nVidia · 06-07-08

Ok, I'm looking at other boards now, I'm about done with this one. I've broken it somehow and am having intermittent problems with it.

Kinyin · 06-09-08

I had to RMA my original board and the new one was flashed to the newest BIOS available. Using this, I was able to achieve a 1536 FSB with my E6600 (3456MHz). This is with a 1.48750 VCore and the other numbers listed in this guide for everything else. In the past, I was able to get past 3.4GHz, I even remember being able to break 3.6, but not with this board/BIOS combination.

I wanted to ask what is considered the best OC BIOS for the P5N32-E. Not that my current OC is bad by any means. A 1GHz OC that idles at 26C is wonderful

for the 65nm dual cores, the 1203 bios is the best oc bios available

. For us of those that have the 45nm dual cores, the 1404 is the best. But watch out for those fsb holes

. Think I found mine at 450 fsb (1800 qdr) . So I couldn't even boot into windows even at 1.35 vcore. By lowering my multi to 8.5, and upping fsb to 475, I'm now typing this and running orthos. Hopefully it will last 24hrs

The highest I was able to reach with an E6850 and the older X6800 dual core was 534 FSB. That was with active cooling on both the nb and sb.

Never got to try the board with newer 45nm chips though I would assume similar FSB would be attainable.

no luck with the lower multi and higher fsb either

. Maybe it's something else, or am I stuck? I have vcore at 1.35v and that's not going higher. The rest are:

NB: 1.4v
SB: 1.5v
1.2ht: 1.3v
cpu vtt: 1.55v
ddr2 references are set to auto (does anybody know what those do?)

Has anyone used the digital sound? I am trying to troubleshoot mine with the optical output. I remember when I originally got it the connectors on it were bent slight off the pcb and I was able to just push it back in. I have the setting in the bios to 'Auto" and the soundmax control panel doesn't have the digital output disabled. I am using a new receiver that I am pretty sure I have set up correctly to receive the output from my computer. Anyone have any ideas of how to easily troubleshoot this? I'm running Win XP 32 bit.

my PC simply wont accept any OC, I only managed to set 5-5-5-15 on the RAMs, all else I try to set manually on the BIOS, I press F10 and the computer either won't boot, or boot and then when I check on CPUz it's back to defaults... what could that be?

Your Northbridge voltage is too low, start raiseing it.

thanks for the input

. How much voltage do you think I would need for 450+ fsb?

I tried to once when i first got it...haven't tried since (think my sound system was the culprit)... goodluck though
