    C2Q q9650 clocking on Asus P5QL Pro

    I'm working with what I've got. An I5 rig is something a student can't afford for at least 2 more years. I read up on this mobo and found out there's an fsb wall at 412mhz and sadly I can confirm this... but it can do 412x9 on below stock voltages as I've found out. No matter how high I set the...

    C2Q q9650 clocking on Asus P5QL Pro

    Bumping this, now that my exams are over, I'm willing to do whatever it takes to hit 4G stable.

    C2Q q9650 clocking on Asus P5QL Pro

    Alrighty, spread spectrum and speedstep were off, loose ram timings and 425x9 at 1,37v worked normally (didnt test too extensively though). So I upped the fsb to 430 and it didnt even get to bios. Set voltage to 1,3825 or something like that, still nothing. So I lowered the fsb back to 425 and...

    C2Q q9650 clocking on Asus P5QL Pro

    Got any suggestions for voltage if I were to try 445x9? I'd stay on the safe side with 1.35 but will that be enough? And what would be the highest I should try if it doesn't work at all? EDIT: Just tried it all the way to 1.37v and didn't get a bios screen or anything. Neither 430 nor 445x9...

    C2Q q9650 clocking on Asus P5QL Pro

    Hey guys, got some free time on my hands (finally) and decided to try clocking this rather old CPU I got. Not entirely new to clocking, but for the past few hours I've tried absolutely everything imaginable to get this thing stable over 3,8GHz. Currently: running fine at 3743MHz (9x416)...

    Chieftec 1200w 12v rails

    As I mentioned before, it has no more warranty left... Yesterday evening the pc did it again when i tried to turn it on. So i jumped it with a paperclip and as expected, nothing happened. I left it until today, tried to jump it and it worked. So i put the pc together again and everything works...

    Chieftec 1200w 12v rails

    I am, at least for the moment, not looking at the voltages at all - leave them be as they are, I will test them eventually when I have the time. But the matter at hand is the weird behaviour of the PSU after a "freak shutdown" where it delivers absolutely no power to the motherboard. The...

    Chieftec 1200w 12v rails

    Alright, bringing this one up again as I seem to be having problems with the PSU yet again. The supply worked alright until like a week ago (still low voltages but no crashes or freezes whatsoever...). Then, after I had messed up with replacing one of my fans (the blades were hitting a part...

    Chieftec 1200w 12v rails

    Lol not this one, not now at least, since it has been opened upwards of 9000 times :P But is it then not possible that with a weaker PC it gets the full 12v but with my machine it can't get enough juice for 12v and only goes up to 11,4 or so...?

    Chieftec 1200w 12v rails

    Hey peeps, long time lurker here. I have a 2 year 6 month old Chieftec Super Series 1200W PSU which is giving me some trouble with its 12v rails. In BIOS I'm getting 11,368v, in Everest and HWMonitor I'm getting 11,59v with fluctuations down to 11,54 at idle. BUT: When I power on some game...
