This isn't AM3 Phenom... Raising NB actually hurt performance with these chips. Weird; I know, but it does.
Also, my god man! Tighten up those ram timings cas 11 is horrid

Thanks for advanced, I will gotta lower NB. so how about NB 2250Mhz from fsb 250Mhz.

Update again dude,
Thanks again

, I put low right now these NB are 2250Mhz
and low CL again, CL10-12-10-31 1T but I trying CL9 no boot
and CL10 does success boot Windows. Great latency test AIDA64

Good Good- Glad your happy

Now give 9-11-9-28 a try
Remember; it's always faster to have a lower cas and tRas at lower frequencies than a high clock spd.
9-9-9-28 @1800Mhz will actually be faster than your 2000Mhz at cas10/tRas 30

Will I'm having issue with which I believe is my mobo I have bought a set of Logitech G930 wireless headset, I have RMA the original that I had cause I was at times getting static feedback and it would turn off and on by itself. Now the brand new one that Logitech send to me is doing the same thing, which I have connect the headset receiver to the front and back of my computer (directly onto the mobo); which leaves me to think its the USB ports or controllers. So accordingly to ASUS they don't have any that says in their system that some of these mobos came with faulty bios chipset, I just want to know is ASUS right or is this Club forum is? I going to upgrade my BIOS from 1102 to the latest one, if any suggestion please feel free to contact me thanks in advance[/SIZE]

The CHV mainboard was released before AMD released their new FX line of processors. The original boards needed to have their BIOS chips updated to be able to accept Bulldozer. This is my understanding.

The only other suggestion I can think of besides what MrInfinity suggested is to check the audio driver level, and then within the sound settings there may be controls to better support headsets.

I have a set of wireless headphones made by Creative here in the house. I checked to see if there is any noise present, static or otherwise and it all seems fine here. I'm using a USB 2.0 port connected to the front panel of my HAF 932, which obviously means there's additional cabling to the headers on the mainboard. FWIW, I'm using the Windows 8 Realtek driver. The headphones worked perfectly without the need of any adjustments in sound settings or control panel.

Also forgot to mention that Lower end Wireless routers will/can cause static due to interrupting the signal. (Even from 2ft away from the transceiver) The reason they will shut off an back on again is that they "think" there is no signal. Many cable/DSL companies use such low end routers to give to thier customers which is why there are aftermarket options available from Cisco, and Motorola. IF your headset is on the 2.4Ghz band or lower than this could be your answer if all my other suggestions did not fix the problem already.

Welcome to another M2N32 owner. Nice to see you here, Accel.

FWIW, I'm running that way now. Stock settings on this board has NB at 2200 and HT at 2600. That's not to say this is an optimal setting. It's just one I tried for sport. It was a reasonable compromise in my case with the Snipers running at CL 9 and they don't seem to be able to reach 1800, or at least I can get there and still hold the lower CAS setting.

As far as FSB is concerned, I haven't ventured myself beyond 250 and frankly I'm unclear as to what the benefits would be since we're not using it to push the NB anymore. If the rest of the mainboard benefits from the faster setting somehow, that would be good to try, but I don't see too many owners posting settings with high FSB setting.

I wish they had made 1 in black and blue with the ability to run CFX and use the pci legacy slot (sound card)

Trying CL9, no luck won't boot but there have a bug led post say it "MEMORY"
rated PC2000 CL9-12-9-28 1T/2T and raise memory voltage is 1.75v, what a worried too high?
Maybe my Sector 5 by Patriot is not be High Performance but is it Value than Viper
biggrin.gif

sure enough for rated PC2000 CL10, and going downgrade to PC1800/PC1866 with low CL9 soon.

Your toasting your headset because you still have USB3 Charging on. Disable it in bios and make sure the headset is only connected to USB 2.0 ports (un-colored ones)
What happens is when usb charging is on is that your are getting constant voltage through the usb connection whether the PC is off or not. That voltage you are recievgin when the PC is off is approx. 5 volts. However; once you hit that power button a small surge gets sent through the USB line for like... 1/2 a second. If you probe the USB output at this time you will see that the voltage jumps to 6.5v-6.8v. Now if this was a car or home appliance...that would be perfectly fine... but when it's PC hardware it tend to be a problem. PC hardware whether it's internal or external is far more sensitive to electronic surges (this is why ppl use UPS, surge protectors, Voltage stabilizers (expensive but worth it for audiophiles)and line filters. The typical rule in electronics is variation of +/-10%. I don't find that rule to be true with computer hardware.
In your case... if your "in love" with those headphones...I would move the receiver output to the USB 2.0 plugs and look into buying an usb line filter (it's basically just a capacitor on the 5v line feed) and double/triple check my bios to be 110% sure that usb charging is disabled , also disable "wake up on USB".
The problem is with the headset not the motherboard.
Click to expand...
I have gone into my BIOS to check the USB settings you have mention, and the USB 3.0 Battery Charging setting was disable also the Wake On USB is also disable. I have test the headset on my laptop which is also near my router and the issue doesn't happen on it, I have Verizon Fios which they provided me with one of their Actiontec routers. I don't believe its the router cause this issue didn't start from when I bought it, it started happening like 3 months later after I purchase it. The drivers are all fine which I have checked, I also forgot I never had the USB receiver for the headset unplugged into the USB 3.0 but I did have it on the 2.0 front. But I have recently moved it to one of the 2.0 ports on the back of the PC, which the issue is still happening but not as bad as it was when I had it plugged in the front. I'm going to check the inside of my PC for any damage wires just in case. Thanks for the helping hand, don't have much time with college and work much REP to yall:thumb:

They've updated the website and now sometimes the "Support" tab either appears either not and sometimes returns an error.

I've experienced the same the last two days.
