actually, dun use utilities bundled with the mobo coz they sark...
instead try everest which works perfectly with this mobo

try this -> http://www.rebelshavenforum.com
and yes u can change the command rate only if u flashed the latest bios

haha i dont have the heart to do hard modding yet.. why dun u try 1st then show us the result

guys looks like a have a prob...
im using team elite ddr2 800 5-5-5-16..
but i seem to cannot reach 450mhz fsb no matter what i do...
but i and my fren already tested my ram and it can do 1.15gig @ 2.25v vdimm but using 3:5 divider...
what do u guys think is the prob?? is it because of mine e6300 sark and cannot break the 450mhz wall or is it this mobo's prob???
btw im using the latest modded bios from rebelshaven

yup, when i set the memory divider to 1:1 and fsb to 450mhz, my rig cannot boot, then i tried to increase to vcore to 1.5v, vmch to 1.45v and vdimm to 2.2v but still cannot break the 450mhz fsb wall

hurm, maybe its becoz the cpu strap only change when ur fsb is over 403mhz, that why.. <- correct me if im wrong...
becoz i experienced it, i can boot @ 333mhz, but between 334 and 400 mhz, my system cannot boot at all..
btw rite now my fsb is at 445mhz

im using the p96ca828.rhx from the rebels haven forum

well the ocbility remains the same for me coz i just cant get over the 450mhz fsb wall

i dunno, maybe its to improve the stability of the OC...
but with ur oc i dun think u need to change the FSB termination voltage

i too left the fsb termination at stock,
in fact all of my voltages are stock except for vdimm

i use tt extreme spirit 2 for my nb, tho hr-05 is much better (n expensive)

what the..........
huhu tough luck for u man....

the difference is
the 965pt pcb is based on teh p965 deluxe, which is good
but the p965 pcb is not related to p965 deluxe..
about the overclockablity i think that the 965pt is better than p965
pls check lowyat's intel overclocking database and u can see that someone already clocked their e6300 past 3.5ghz on 965pt which is impressive considering that this is a value mobo..
but the 965pt has been EOL-ed by biostar

haha agreed bro intune..
this mobo is the best in terms of oc when compared to other mobo in its price range

guys..
i just noticed..
the liquid electrolitic capacitors on my board is not sanyo like biostar once claimed on their website, but OST which is made by the company named ostor based in taiwan..
so i checked this capacitor at badcaps.net and capacitorlabs.com and found out that OST capacitors are not good..
haha rite now my mobo's age is nearing the 1 year old mark and i have oced it ever since is got it..
wonder how long the capacitors on my mobo will last??
how about you guys, what brand of capacitors are on your tforce boards??

btw, xbox360 mobo have 100% sanyo low esr electrolytic capacitor -> i already checked it when i "bedah" my bro's xbox and wii's mobo uses 100% solid capacitors (try look for screenshot of wii's mobo on the internet)

maybe it's ur ram..
even me can get 445mhz fsb on stock vcore...
the highest fsb on stock vcore this mobo can do is about 470mhz if im not mistaken

nope..
i cant find it either...
btw, my c1e is always on because i cannot disable it

btw, starting today, im now using msi p35-neo2 fr...
biostar, u have served me well, i will never forget the days we spent

btw, here's a few pics of my old mobo



as u can see i put heatsinks on the cpu vrm mosfets and changed the lousy stock nb hsf to tt extreme spirit 2 to increase stability



out with the old, in with the new

haha but then u have to give me money in return
btw im thinking of selling my old mobo along with the tt extreme spirit 2
