I changed my motherboard to wake up with keyboard hot key only aka Ctrl+F1 etc. Power button will not wake up the system now. And you know what, so far it works fine! Maybe my casing's power switch is not good already, giving intermittent signal when pressed(?)

I am changing the phases and phase frequency to reduce PWM temperature. What I noticed so far is, 2 phase is cooler than using single phase. Tonight is to find out about the phase frequency.

Err I am running on 1408 BIOS..

Ic... I got one last solution for u:

Pretty well, Ive been thinkin' too upon changing my current P6T board. Hmm dya have any extra x58 1366 board?
Maybe could sell to me at cheap.. Lolzzz

Ngam2 I got a brand new set of DX58SO to let go in garage sale keke. Saw Roland did dram 2k before with the same board. But not sure whether it has issue with resume or not lol.

But note that the more u pay the more features u get. Fork out few bucks n grab a nice mobo like R3G.
Or EVGA E770 n R3E these two confirm will satisfy ur needs.

Well, Im thinkin' bout Gigabyte x58 UD series. Any comment?

Ive never used a Giga X58 mobo before.
Perhaps u could gv it a chance n pls share ur experience here.
But on SB platform, their bios is getting worse. The multi level LLC is kinda sucks. Bad voltage control, accuracy, lack of mem subtimings tweaking resulted in users more rely on auto settings. P67 UD7 has bad PCB layout too. The top most PCIEx1 is blocked by NF200 heatsink n onboard power button is placed upside down lol. Thats why i sold it at dirt cheap price of RM700

there's a lot of cheap x58 mobo on sale right ?
i think the price drop gaw2 since SB .
kinda sad actually .
once a true performer in intel T_T.
now just become an old news .

That is circle of life.. What to do, if you could keep up with latest tech, just go lehh
Else, wait kaput or trade to get newer.. Lol

huhuhu poisoned by SB
please no

R2E ppl...

do you guys ever encounter problems with the onboard LAN whenever you are on serious overclock settings???

I don't mean those tiny voltage increaments, I mean those >4.0ghz or those >1700mhz with >3400mhz uncore...

this is the thing that happens...previously everything is a-ok but as soon as I load my 4.0ghz settings, LAN becomes unstable...games DC whole night on me, FTP disconnected and slightly slow internet connection...is not slow in terms of the connection, its slow to 'start' the connection...once I entered a url and hit enter, i takes a second or two (maybe up to 5) before it starts loading up...

If stock, no problem..

another thing is, if I hook up fans on the 3-pin header next to the second LAN port, the port becomes unstable...symptoms as aforementioned...

Does anyone ever experience such problems, even not specifically on R2E...

i faced this problem with Asus P6T7 WS Supercomputer + i7 975
my USB ports also become malfunction when highly OCed
I'm not sure whether it's OC failure /bad settings / bios or what but i end up buying another board.

sometimes my R3E got this prob too
usb malfunction

Hmm I thought my P6T USB gone faulty, seems you guys also faced this probs. Or maybe it just happen to Asus boards??

Not generalize to Asus mobos as I don't hv this USB issue with MIVE since P67. My Giga UD7 also didn't hv this problem.

Does it happen frequently?

Just woke up and check memtest test 8, and BAM!!!

everything is OK! 3600MHz uncore with 1800MHz ram

CPU at 2700MHz (not yet set to 4GHz)

Now I'm LINX'ing and will start online gaming once it passes all 200 times...

If still the onboard LAN becomes crazy, I'll have to go and buy a PCI/PCIe LAN...


Attached is my settings....

it failed...

i think u need a better RAM rated @ 1.65v

Now....or just 3 hours before, I started LinX with a little bump of QPI voltage...like 0.3 more...as you can see from the pic, the QPI Voltage is now 1.42v

still kicking ok....
