Guys which program's temp readings are more accurate for the I45? Tpower2 or realtemp?

I'm using a X3320, sunbeam core contact freezer, 1.240Vcore, 467x7.5. Tpower2 reports my core temp (100% load) as 49C whereas realtemp reports 57-61C among the 4 cores. Ambient temp is around 24-25C (aircon room).

download coretemp latest version. it should have Tjmax set accordingly to intel spec. imho, it should be identical to ur Tpower2 reading.

Nope coretemp gives me another set of figures. All are different rofl. As below.

The problem is.. There are NO CROSSFIRE below the ATI Overdrive menu.. uwaaaa... seems like my CF setup couldn't recognize by BIOS itself.

anyone trying CF with this mobo? mind to share your experience?

For your information, i trying to sweep between these 2 cards to the primary slot and both of them running fine and perfectly.
i think there is something worng with the secondary slot there.

Hey death - I have the same problem as you. Just got 2 HD4850s to play with. Problem is no Crossfire in my CCC, and GPU-Z detects as disabled.
But, my display now is connected to the secondary card! Once I plugged in the 2nd card, I had to reconnect my display.

Any updates? =p

There's a molex connector socket on the motherboard if you need additional power.

I can see an Arctic Freezer 7 and 3 HDDs. The gc doesn't look that mean though - small HSF assembly.

Yup probably. Such a mismatch of components though - see the 750W PSU? =p

Under the voltage control tab you can set the voltages in increments of +0.1. Those are in addition to your default RAM voltage, so +0.1 means 1.9v.

It sets your system memory divider. Yeah, Biostar makes cryptic instructions.

I have the latest BIOS. Got my board from another forumer 2nd hand, so I'm not sure if he flashed it or it came like that..

Haha lower your multiplier and pump the FSB wei, Try to run your Ballistix synchronous with your RAM at ~ 400FSB. More performance that way..

Yup I used configuration 1 as well. Auto does not work at anything above FSB400.

I'm not sure why, but DDR RCOMP CONFIG set to auto would not POST at any speed above FSB400 with my Dominators. I set it to config 1, and the problem goes away - I easily posted at FSB500.

Yah I know, very puzzling. What revision are your dominators? Mine are 4.1, ProMOS chipset.
