    Cause of recent boot up instability? More NB/SB voltage needed?

    Intel burn test, orthos, prime 95 are the ones I use right now.

    Cause of recent boot up instability? More NB/SB voltage needed?

    Well, the weird thing is when the sysm booted which was every time after being off, when running stability tests like intel burn test, prime 95/orthos etc, there was never any instability. It always passed the tests with 0 errors. Whilst overclocking I kept all memory voltage at stock, whilst...

    Cause of recent boot up instability? More NB/SB voltage needed?

    Ahh my fault. So the FSB Termination Voltage is the FSB increase. My problem now is, I don't know what they are set to by default as SB, NB & FSB voltages are set to Auto. How can I determine what they are by default? None of the apps I have installed (Asus AI suite, coretemp, speedfan) show...

    Cause of recent boot up instability? More NB/SB voltage needed?

    Ahh I see. I guess the P5K doesn't have this. Settings I have for adjusting voltages: Vcore CPU Voltage Reference CPU Voltage Damper CPU PLL Voltage DRAM Voltage FSB Termination Voltage NB Voltage NB Voltage Reference SB Voltage

    Cause of recent boot up instability? More NB/SB voltage needed?

    By increasing the NB voltage you mean?

    Cause of recent boot up instability? More NB/SB voltage needed?

    I got the impression that maybe the CPU was sucking too much from the motherboard, so the PCIe wasn't getting enough power or something? So maybe upping NB voltage. It's strange as it seemed ok for a four-five days or so then randomly got me on a reboot. PCIe frequency has always remained locked...

    Cause of recent boot up instability? More NB/SB voltage needed?

    Recently been toying around with overclocking my C2D 6420. Started off at 266, long story short ended up at 400MHz stable.. Pc ran ok for about a week. Friday afternoon I did a windows update, rebooted - and I got no display. The fan on the graphics card carried on running at full speed...

    Dissapointed in ATI 4870

    You're card is definitely a wrong one, or lack of power or something. My 4870 flies in Cod4 on max settings + aa + af @ 1920x1200. Never once did it ever feel slow throughout the whole game. That was with my processor @ stock (2.13) speeds.

    hd4870 squeel

    I'm starting to think my card is going faulty. Only had it since end of August (practically brand new) - should be ok to get a replacement right? It's a Force3D one. Now I'm having funny reboot problems with it. I reboot, the fan stays on full speed and I get no display. I have to switch the PC...

    Vsync is disabled in CCC. Pretty sure it's nothing to do with vsync. Does it even with ati tool.

    Proper Way to update ATI drivers

    Since my last (and first) attempt at upgrading ATI drivers, I can't run the ATI' exe's anymore. I just get "ati install manager has stopped working". Had to use the CMD to force the new ones to install after searching 4 hours. I still can't run the exe's even now - same error message. I read...

    I get a similar noise when the graphics card comes under load. It's worrying but it doesn't seem to affect anything. I just hope it's not bad and doesn't kill the card as it's not a nice noise.

    Official 8.11 Catalyst

    What method are you guys using when upgrading drivers? The last time I tried updating my drivers, after uninstalling, then running driver cleaner, when trying to install the new ones (running the exe), kept getting "ati catalyst install manager has stopped working" error!! Read loads of...

    ASUS Rampage II Extreme @ [H]

    How come you say the board is perfect then pick out what seem to be important issues with the expansion slots and headers and stuff?

    Vcore drops during stress test, but system remains stable during stress test

    But surely enabling the voltage damper to maintain the 1.2650Vcore would rectify this? I just ran 10 runs of IBT. Apparently my system is stable :) I was surprised however, by how much higher it took the load temp. It took it to 50c. First time I have seen the temp go this high!
