Added thanks for your specs. You should put your specs in the CP like we all have. Hope we can help you get this thing fully overclocked. Doing some overclocking on a set of Corsair XMS2s rated for 675MHz at 4-4-4-12 so far up to 875MHz 5-5-5-15 2.0v. Thinking of lapping my E8400 wonder if it will be worth it?

Nice work amazing clocks there. Here is the best I can get so far with my current combo on air. I am limited by the RAM I am using until get other sticks back. I think Corsair 675mhz RAM at 875MHz max is pretty sweet.

Hi peeps, my name is Shaun2k ive had my board for a while now, i'm using the tpower with a Q9550. and geil 1066mhz dimms.

I've managed to break 4ghz on air (Zalman Cooler), however i'm looking into getting some rock solid ddr2.
I Preferably want 1066, and beyond really, and i could do with suggestions from people with the same spec system.
The last mem i got (gail) was 1066 but started failing only after a few months and now will not even run at 920 (do not buy gail ram for this board). however i found it ran well at 800 and would nearly do stock (lol) with an overclock. it took me 2 days just to get it to run even with vdimm increased to recomended settings.



Strange thing was i got better throughput with the ram at 800 and scored better in some benchmarks then when i was using its native clock??? how can this be possible, maybe another overclocked 800 dimm from the factory??? rated to a higher speed then it actually does not feel comfortable running at.

any help with a good solid ram setup would be welcomed, and its cool this board has its own section too..

Hey guys, some help please, my q9550 is doing very nice op my gigabyte p35-ds4, but only 450x8,5 (3825mhz), so i bought this amazing board, only thing is that anything i set from 450fsb and higher my bios crashes and the led displays E9, clear cmos and take out battery didnt bring me any boot..

Luckly i found a topic on a forum where some guy adviced to reflash or recover it by a bios on an usb stick or disk, and only on that way i can get my board working again,
is there something i am doing wrong, because i find enough proof that it should go higher, like Shaun2K above me?!

Anyone have a template for a good O/C with a E5200 on this board?

Sign me up, had the TP45 HP then got this, good with a 9multi but I must say that the TP45 was a better board until I killed it trying to fix a buddies GPU
