Those are the exact ones I'm having trouble with. I just can't get them to run at 1066 in the red or yellow slots. Did you do any settings changes to get them to run?

Q6600 thermal spec is 71 degrees for G0 and 62 degrees for B3.

Oh man, my UD3P came in yesterday!!



I just need to make a couple quick changes to my loop tomorrow then I can fire this beast up and really start pushing my Q9550!

What aftermarket mosfet heatsink will replace the one on the left side of the board? I want to put my Thermalright HR-05 on the northbridge, but I can't do so without a second heatsink for the mosfets.

MCBrown.CA

Enzotech MST-81s fit both the vReg and mosfets of this board.

Im lookin at two of 'em right now. Ill be installing a full set of Enzotech pin-array copper HSs to the UD3P (probably not SB as the Enzotech -sink I have fits, but its not aligned properly and looks kinda wacky). As if this board needs any more copper....

OK, I need to go tweak my NB, I think. Currently have it at 1.42V to drive 475 FSB and 8GB of RAM at 950 5-5-5-15. Almost everything runs fine, except the compiler keeps crashing. (And Firefox on occasion.) So I think the NB has a problem.

What should the GTL reference be for this chip? I haven't changed it from Auto (which comes out to 0.76V I think). That seems incredibly low. Should I increase this?

Auto leaves the GTLREF at 0.63, which corresponds to a reference voltage of 0.76V (assuming your VTT is 1.20V) in BIOS.

VTT x GTLREF = Reference Voltage

Reference voltage is what you're setting. If you want to a GTLREF of 0.67, multiply your VTT by 0.67 and find the closest available reference voltage value without going over. Do the same for whatever GTLREF you want. I have my both my CPU and NB ref at 0.67.

Note that once you set your reference voltage to match the desired GTLREF, the BIOS will automatically scale the reference voltage as you increase VTT.

Ok, so I've had this board for about three weeks, and within the last few days I have been driven to the point of madness because of what I have decided to call "Six Seconds to Failure" (some of you may have seen my post).

What happens is: Every six seconds (yes, you can almost set a clock to it), the video/audio will "hiccup". Doesn't matter what I'm doing; from gaming to video to just mousing around in the desktop, it happens every six seconds (to test this, I literally just moved my mouse in a circle, and every six seconds, for a split second, the arrow would freeze and then jump to where it should be).

My question is, has any one else had this problem (before I RMA my board back to the egg), and does the beta BIOS fix this problem. In the meantime, I have swapped out the Gigabyte board in favor of my old EVGA 680i SLI, but I really would like to get my Gigabyte back.

All I did was set the timings to 5-5-5-15 and the voltage to 2.1V. I left everything else on auto. To see exactly what I did go back a few pages and look at my guide. Those aren't pics of my numbers but a reference to my actions.

Sorry if that isn't helpful.

UD3P F7a bios link on tweak town works again.

I am having similar problems but its only when I fire up COD - WaW and its only in the menus once in awhile. The mouse will freeze for a few seconds and then come back and sometimes the audio too. The weird thing is it happens on my HTPC also which has a micro atx Gigabyte mobo and Amd 6000+ in it. Wish I could help you out with possibly solutions but I haven't done any research yet.
