hahhahaha...i guess i can say goodbye to my gigabyte board now...somehow the bloody board failed on me couldnt reboot...there goes my ds3...very lazy too manually flash the bloody bios...
all i did wrong is tryinng to update using @bios but didnt realize its a revision 2 bios...i thought my board is revision 2...haih...turn out to be its revision 1...

somemore when i try to boot it it just restart over n over again till my 7950gx2 burn....suddenly the 7950 gx2 chip just burn!!!damn...

can see the light n smell oso..goin to rma it my 7950...but the ds3...i just totally lost hope affraid to use that bored again,so just now go buy the asus p5b board...and now runni on it...but i think my ds3 still can be use...if you have the tool to manually flash the bios though...and got guts to try it on your system...but for me,so damn affraid edi wanna use that board....even though there is no mark of burnin on the ds3 watsoever...
well goodbye gigabyte and hello asus...

omg thats so bad. sad.gif remember that REV.2 boards (u can see at the PCB) comes with dual X16 PCI-E slots.

CAREFUL Alert for DS3 USERS!

i have problem with my processor temps.

ok here's the prob:

before i remove the cooler, the temps are normal = CPU = 45C idle, Cores = 53C idle.

after i remove the HSF and reapply new AS5 paste (rice method) the temp went so high even at idle = 57C+, Core = 65C+ blink.gif

no matter how many times i try to re-sit the heatsink, still the same! unsure.gif unsure.gif

even at stock speed vs overclocked speed, the temps are still the same. At Load, it reach over 80C but when i touch the heatsink, NOT hot! only a lil bit warm.

what could be the problem? icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

A bit out of topic,

im running a e6300 @ 3.0ghz with Ds3, raptor 36gb and seagate 7200 250gb. Booting is kinda slow for a pretty fast system IMO ~ it takes 10 - 12 loading bars when booting to XP. THe lenovo computer @ my office (p4 3.0 ghz) only needs 6 bar to load into windows.

ANyone here having the same problems? Or is it not a problem?

Further information:
i connect my hard disk to the orange sata ports, which is from the ich8 chip not the jmicron. IIRC, it runs in IDE mode or some sort not AHCI (though i dont know what AHCI is sad.gif )

I have two optical drives connected to the PATA connector.

Using XP Pro SP2
*
my AMD64 s754 system needs only 1.5 bars to load into windows lol. its not the problem about speed i think. but it is more to the windows installation (pirated ones includes some optimizations codes, thats why it's fast.)

CM Hyper48 update:

compared to intel stock cooler. hyper48+AS5 gives 10C temp decrease @ load (spec as in my sig). Load temp is 58C (2.6GHz) rclxm9.gif

very satisfied with the performance rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

i have problem with stability.

i OC'd to 2.8 (400x7).

ran 32m Pi - PASSED.
orthos 2 hours passed@2.8 (58c load)

but when i play games like dota for less than 30 minutes, it hang then windows got restarted. ]

what's goin on here? i believe it's ram problem, not the processor unsure.gif unsure.gif

ram +0.4v
MCH & FSB = +0.2
VCore = 1.35v

Anyone know whats the optimal setting for Gigabyte 965P-DS3 mobo??? What should I enable and what should I disable???
*
depends on ur target/maximum fsb. i'd say if u wanna past 420fsb mark, u can at least add +0.2 on the vFSB and +0.3v for over 450. u can keep at +0.2v on the vMCH.

make sure to disable unnecessary bios features:

QUOTE
1. Disable 'AI Tuning' for ASUS, 'C.I.A.2' for Gigabyte
2. Set PCI Express (PCIe) frequency @100Mhz
3. Set PCI frequency @33Mhz
4. Disable Hyperpath 3 (for P5W DH only)
5. Disable any 'spread spectrum'
6. Disable Q-Fan (for ASUS only)
7. Disable 'Limit CPUID Max to 3'
8. Disable any overvoltage protection
9. Disable 'C1E'
10. Disable 'EIST'
11. Disable Virtualization Technology
12. Disable No-Execute Memory Protect
13. Disable any other thing you don't use
14. Do not enable any speed enhancements you see


QUOTE(kevyeoh @ Mar 28 2007, 08:20 AM)
beats me bro...i don't know the optimum setting also...

i can't even hit 400FSB mark right now.... did i miss out anything?
i did increase 0.1V for my FSB alraedy..

not sure if my system not stable due to proc or FSB... how to verify?
*
+0.1v for 400fsb is sufficient already. maybe it's ur memory configuration. determine the best stable setting by playing the ram timing/clocks. Also, Try to add +0.1v on the MCH. Test them at least 2 hours with Orthos.

if ur using DDR800 memory, should not be a prob hitting 400fsb if u put the memory multiplier to 2.0 (1:1).

increase the vmch is increase the voltage of the 965p chipset,but if increase the vfsb is for which chipset?
*
vMCH is the southbridge and vFSB is the Northbridge. smile.gif

QUOTE(kevyeoh @ Mar 28 2007, 08:37 PM)
blackthyra,

thanks for the input bro...it's working now and i'm doing prime... i up my vmch and vfsb to +0.2 both and now i can hit 440Mhz...

doing prime now...

so now it's either choosing high CPU multiplier and get low ram speed...
or lower CPU multiplier and increasing FSB + memory speed...

any inputs?
*
yes. if u want to test MAX FSB, lower ur cpu multiplier. keep memory multi at 1:1 too unless u are testing max ram mhz on the ram.

what cpu model and ram chipset r u using now?

perhaps u should start using a hight quality PSU like Enermax 500W or better for a high pc like yours..

how much u bought that 600w power logic PSU?

yo guys, which bios version do you think is the best? im currently running F8..

Not sure but for me, all bios seem give about the same OCability. I see some ppl can achive higher speed @ LOW voltage in F8, but thats not the case for me... sad.gif

when starting my windows...halfway...with the running bar... it just hang...

can anyoone roughly let me know if it's the FSB too high? or it hangs because of my CPU? or RAM?

thanks!

yes there are several possibilities. maybe u need to add more voltage at vdimm/MCH.

try adding some..

how's ur OC result? give us some details.

hmm... currently i'm setting my FSB at 430Mhz... ram timing is 1:1 so it's running at 860Mhz right? and my cpu is at stock voltage 1.35V running at 3.01Ghz (multiplier 7)...

fsb: +0.1V
mch: +0.1V
ddr2: +0.2V

ram timing is 5-5-5-15....

yesterday when running prime... i leave it running over night...but then today wake up...i check...my windows like no display...the screen is black...but the system is like still running... no matter how i shake the mouse or press the key at keyboard.. the monitor still dark...like the display won't come back....haha...i dunno what's wrong...so now i'm running prime again...

will update if it's stable....if stable...i'll tkae blackthyra suggestion to increase the mch and fsb...then trying to go for 450Mhz next... wink.gif

Added on April 19, 2007, 8:12 amactually wha'ts the difference between vFSB and vmch?
i thought MCH is controlling the FSB as well right?
*
if u gonna put past 420fsb, 430 is your case, u should apply at least +0.2 at the fsb/mch. +0.1 only stable at 400fsb i suppose. For memory, its already pass past the 800mhz mark. I see u are using XMS2, any idea what memory chips under the hood? if its Micron/Hynix, u can do 2.1v (+0.3) or else, put 2.2v (+0.4) to maximize stability - this is VERY important.

MCH is the bus located between the CPU and NB. Thats why it needs separate voltage channel to work on..

wow...not really sure how to check the xms2...but i'm not planning to open up my casing yet... when i get my upgrade additional xms2 ram...i'm gonna take a look at it... wink.gif

now moving downwards and starting from 400Mhz FSB first...
processor is 3.2Ghz... after 20 minutes...my PC reset... so now i up the vcore from 1.3875V to 1.4V...and then i also increase my ddr2 ram vdimm from 0.2V to 0.3V...

vmch and vfsb is still at 0.1V
hehe...


Added on April 19, 2007, 8:55 pmoh yeah...i notice hor...at my CPUZ... my vcore setting is 1.4V...then at CPUZ is showing 1.344V...that i understand la cause got vdroop...

but once i run prime on all 4 cores...my voltage at CPUZ becomes around 1.280V.... is this normal?
*
from 1.4v drop to 1.280 is normal la.. from wh

ur rams is XMS2 DDR2 667 (from ur sig) maybe ur ram cant handle 800MHz (ram multi 2.0) thats why u got reset. If u change to DDR800 rams sure will improve ur OC room

so here, maybe ur ram is limiting ur OC... test highest stable ram speed 1st. i think ur cpu no prob liao..

ok...i have a friend using xm2 667Mhz as well...but he's not using 1:1 ratio...maybe higher ratio... i think he did manage to get 1Ghz speed... but then again...it's possible he's lucky to get a good chip right?
*
that only possible if ur using Micron's D9GKX/GMH or Hynix chips..

none other than those can achieve such speed. U should be informed enough about this.

there are lots of discussion threads about these kind of chips around. Do a seach.

that would be enough for u, i'd say.

what cpu cooling r u using? at 3ghz, that pretty cool temperature u got there.

Now, what kind of ram chip ur using? if u dont know/not sure, i suggest u to test the maximum stable ram speed for ur ram 1st. Most of Corsair's 667 are not capable of running 400mhz even @ 2.3v. So try it 1st

read my previous post if u dont know what im talking about.
