    P5N-E SLI voltage question?

    The problem is that my voltage is coming out higher than what's set-up in the bios. So a pencil mod may make things worse. There is a new beta bios that's out for my board. Maybe I'll try that.

    P5N-E SLI voltage question?

    I know it's normal to have a discrepancy between the voltage set in the bios and the one seen in windows (like using CPU-Z). But usually the Bios voltage is supposed to be higher. My voltages are all over the place. I am setting my Vcore voltage to 1.4 CPU Z is showing 1.6 Speed fan, and...

    Suddenly cannot save higher FSB speeds in bios

    funny, everytime my bios crashes now, I'm having to reset the CMOS manually. My Asus crashfree bios is no longer working I guess. I don't understand why. Oh well.

    Suddenly cannot save higher FSB speeds in bios

    Thanks guys, updating the bios didn't do it. But clearing the CMOS manually worked.

    Suddenly cannot save higher FSB speeds in bios

    I installed a fresh copy of xp and obviously this had no effect on my inability to change FSB speeds. I don't get it. I am able to save bios profiles and change the settings. When I boot, it doesn't hang or anything, but it boots into the default FSB. I even tried disabling some other CPU...

    E6300 Overclocking.

    The synced mode and 1:1 mode confused me too. I always thought they were the same. But I have an ASUS P5N-E SLI, similar to yours, and in the bios where you set the FSB as linked, there are two seperate choices. 1:1 and synced. Synced mode halves the memory speed. Also, would having faster...

    Best heatsink for mobo. onboard GPU?

    Those temps seem ridiculous. You shouldn't have that problem with that motherboard set vertically and good airflow in the case. Are you sure your temp sensor is no faulty? Is your CPU passively cooled? I have the ASUS M3N78-VM; which uses the same/similar NVIDIA chipset. Mine is the AMD...

    My Antec Fusion Hybrid SLI experience

    I didn't try that. I'll try it next weekend and let you know. The undervolting is doing wonders to my temps, but I had an automatic shutdown overnight. I need to find a more stable voltage.

    My Antec Fusion Hybrid SLI experience

    I tried several things. I have an 80mm scythe that came with the ninja mini. When I installed it on the ninja mini itself blowing in the direction of the ASUS northbridge heatsink, it made all my temps go up than without it. I guess it wasn't blowing air directly at the northbridge heatsink...

    My Antec Fusion Hybrid SLI experience

    Disabling PhysX didn't make a difference on heat. An 80 mm fan blowing down on the northbridge dropped my temps to mid 50s C. Now I need to figure out how to install this fan properly.

    My Antec Fusion Hybrid SLI experience

    I was thinking of replacing the northbridge heat sink with a thermalright HR-05 SLI. But the Xigmatek mentioned above may work too. I am gonna install an 80mm fan in there first though. Has anyone tried to install an 80mm on the back grill of an antec fusion or 2480 (same case) How would I...
