    People with E6850 or any info please come here.

    Just pulled the trigger today on a retail E6850! $280 US plus $14.50 US shipping fees from antaresdigital.com. I've had a Pentium D945 3.4Ghz on my board since buying it this past February. I've got a nice stable 3.9GHz OC on air 24/7. But now alas, the time for upgrade is here...

    Pentium D 945/955 Overclocks... so Whos got them?

    I'm using a D945 on a ASUS P5N32E-SLI mobo. My 24/7 settings give me 3.910 GHz (FSB(Q)=230MHz x fixed 17 multiplier) using a Vcore setting of 1.3000 in BIOS easily. My temps seem to have locked down to roughly 38-40C idle, 60-62C when running ORTHOS. Typical game temp for America's Army is...

    Pentium D 945 OC Temps Question

    OK so I gave it two weeks after release and flashed the P5N32E-SLI BIOS 0903 today. This is an 'official' BIOS from ASUS, not marked as a Beta. Heard only good tidings from people who flashed before me. Why YAY? I can make a 3.9GHz OC stable with my D945 using only 1.30 Vcore set in...

    Pentium D 945 OC Temps Question

    That's what I hear... it's just that the Presler's run hot in all cases. Oh well I guess I'll live with it. Was thinking to maybe lap my HSF this weekend and check my CPU IHS to see if I have any convex or concave issues where good contact isn't being made.

    Pentium D 945 OC Temps Question

    Running a SL9QB D945 in an ASUS P5N32E-SLI with an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro. Rest of the bits and pieces are listed in my post signature. Intel Processor Specfinder for my processor at http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SL9QB tells me that the Thermal Specification is...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    On my ASUS P5N32E-SLI, I have to run the Memory Voltage a little LOWER than what I want to have. For example: Set In BIOS___Read In BIOS After Reboot___Probe2___Everest Ultimate 2.025V_________2.09____________________2.08_________2.10____________ To be honest I can't be positive what my...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    Paithar: I'm not an overclocker myself so that this with a grain of salt. But I have done a lot of research into the topic myself. All of the settings I've indicated in this forum are simply in order to try and run a stable system at reasonable performance. I don't think one technically...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    I ended up taking the TWIN2X2048-6400C4 kit back to my local shop. Asked them to swap it since it was not stable at 2.1V 4-4-4-22-2T and they did so. New memory is much more stable, albeit at a slightly lower voltage than should be. Whenever I raise memory voltage any higher I get errors in...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    OK I tried a procedure for setting 800 MHz in memory from Yoxxy on HoH Forums, here is where I stand tonight: CPU-Z: CPU: Intel D945, Core=3398HMz, Mult=17.0, Rated=800MHz Memory: 4-4-4-22-2T, 1:2 Ratio, 400 MHz Frequency SPD: 400 MHz, 4-4-4-12-22-2T for Slot 1 and...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    And the story goes on... I can't get 4-4-4-12 2T at any voltage. Tried running it up to 2.11V - I can't get 2.1V exactly since I have to underset in BIOS and the closest I could set was 2.050 to get 2.11 on the BIOS monitor and Probe2. On the plus side I started a Prime95-Blend run this...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    Thanks Darth. I'll try and change the Probe2 limits for DDR2TV and see if Prime95 can run stable at 4-4-4-12 2T, 2.1V monitored DDR2 voltage. I've also downloaded memset and will see if I can check subtimings tonight as well. Seen some info at...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    Just in case it helps someone... When the board was REALLY unstable, I noticed that Probe2 and BIOS monitor were reporting the DDR2 Termination Voltage at 1.02V and Probe2 highlighted that as an error in RED. Reducing the Memory Voltage to BIOS setting of 1.9V yielded a monitor/Probe2...

    Shocking... my stable P5N32E-SLI story

    First a little background.I was coming from a P5P800-SE with Intel 560 chip and 6800GT with NV Silencer 5 and 2GB GEIL DDR400. I wanted to get a board that can give me the option to SLI and will be solid for the next few years. I'm not a big overclocker, I like my stuff stable since it's for...
