    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    The new Intel microcode is in the Bios, (the firmwares update for Marvell and JMicron also). The 1302 Beta Bios prevents to downgrading to a previous Bios version. I have updated to 1302 two days ago, the USB performances are better (more a feeling than a real bench, just my observation of...

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    For people who have the C3/C6 stability issue, did you make a try with the new bios and the C3/C6 enabled (Auto=Disabled, so you must put it to enabled manually...) ? ^_^ @DrCoolZic: Thanks for your report, so it was maybe the C3 Report which was the faulty one ? My first test of the new bios...

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    Thanks for your advice, but it's already done : http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1036810446&postcount=31 We are investigating around C3 / C6 / Pll Overvoltage settings to find which of these parameters is the faulty one ! DrCoolZic will do some test around it (I assume when he will have...

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    Whew! Thank you Gary for your clarification! So leaving it on AUTO without an overclock keep it disabled. But I will right now desactivate it by security. For the C-States, you will disable the C3/C6 by default only on manual O/C or exceeded auto-O/C and not by default at Stock Speed? Am I...

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    Wow! Yes I'm on AUTO setting!!! Could you give me a link about this concern? Maybe it's because I didn't give a try to overclock my CPU for the moment that I didn't have any problem with this setting ? :eek: Hey, it's my turn, thanks for the advice!

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    Hi DrCoolZic! For the IntelBurnTest I used, here is the official link : IntelBurnTest v2.50 It seems that many people in this thread have resolved their hang issue with only the C3/C6 Report desactivated. So maybe in your case (and to be sure), you could leave the PLL overvoltage on AUTO (if...

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    Hi everyone, About my precedent post in this thread, I'm sharing with you the results of my tests to try to understand : How the C3 (and C6?) Report is interacting with the TBoost v2? My configuration - i5 2500K @ Stock speed : 3,3Ghz - Box Turbo Boost annonced : 3,7Ghz - Asus P8P67 Pro...

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    Thanks a lot for your really greats explanations! So the only doubt is about the activation of the TurboBoost v2 on used cores without the C3/C6 states reported by others cores? Unfortunatly, The TurboBoost v2 seems to only add this functionnality : "In the Sandy Bridge microarchitecture this...

    Asus P8P67 Hangs after being idle for some time

    If Wikipedia is up-to-date, the C3 and C6 report states are used for a "deep sleep" of the CPU and the C1E state for a "cool sleep" (without loosing of the cache and others). So maybe we could think about an incompatiblity between Windows (or the chipset drivers from Intel) and the reports...
