    Official ASUS P8P67 Series Overclocking Guide and Information

    hi Sean..not that it's your recommendations at all...just happens randomly while doing nothing really..maybe i'm not using the right AHCI driver? I'm using the 1008 RST driver on my SSD. Is that the recommended at this time? Also, if we are using the RST drivers, we don't need the software...

    GA-G33M-DS2R

    I'm wondering if anyone has the same problem as I have had for almost a year. The problem is: when I resume from s3 sleep and try to play live TV with my hdtv card, which is AverTV combo PCI-e, it crashes. Otherwise my DS2R works pretty well. There seems to be no answer anywhere for this..so...

    Do BIOS releases after F7 have the same overclocking options for 1066 cpu's? I have F8a now....should I be on F7?

    Overclocking with DDR2 1066

    Is it safe to overclock my 1066 ram to say...1100 or 1200? I'm also still trying to figure out what to set my ram and FSB at with this board. I've tried the auto settings, 2.5 divider, 1:1, 4:5, 2:3...still not sure what is best and most stable. I've also unsuccessfully tried to lower the...

    Memory divider/ratio

    I am also interested in the answers to that...been stumped myself for months trying to figure this out...as i've got 1066 ram and cpu as well. I'm running my ram at 2.0...tried 2.1 after a few crashes then just bumped the vcore a bit and it was more stable than raising the ram voltage...and...

    More dead Ballistix

    I'm on my second pair of crucial ballistix PC8500's as of a few weeks ago myself. The new ones I received seem to work fine so far. They don't look as good...no top bridge like the ones before...more fragile. I don't really care as long as they work good. I had the others set at 2.0...tried...

    GA-G33M-DS2R

    Hey guys I need your help. I've read and read and tweaked and tried many BIOS options for this board with my 1066 C2D chip and I need to know what you think the best speed would be for the ram and chip. I've heard for some time that a 1:1 ratio is best, but I have yet to see that...does f8B...

    GA-G33M-DS2R

    Hey has anyone found a way to adjust the CPU fan speed from within the bios with this board? I have tried the PC health tab settings...but don't want my fan on high..maybe there's a setting somewhere in there to keep fan speed somewhere at mid level...so it doesn't get too loud...yet can...

    GA-G33M-DS2R

    thanks for the tip pvhk i'll give it a try. Would 2 be better than 2.5 if I use a newer bios? Also, is the latest bios recommended for an E6600 or is it just for the 1333 chips?

    HOWTO: Overclock C2D Quads and C2D Duals - A Guide v1.0

    Hey guys. Can someone help me out here. I have had a Gigabyte DS2R motherboard with an E6600 chip and also PC8500 DDR2 1000 ram and am having a hard time overclocking a little. I have searched on the forum for months and still not sure if I have my settings right. Here's my question...

    SG03 questions...

    When I was comparing the two cases I remember that the SG03 had plenty of ventilation in the front and side...and of coarse the 120mm on back. By the way regarding dims...the faceplate on SG01 extends about 1/2" beyond top and bottom...so width of case is acually 1" shorter than the...

    SG03 questions...

    Well guys, I realize those may be true specs on the two cases, but I just based my decision on real comparisons..with both of them right in front of me. I do think they're both very nice cases...just chose the SG01 for my needs.

    Can someone help me with the timings on this board...here's what I have the settings at now....some suggestions and a reason would be good. So i've got the f4a bios for starters. I've got my core cpu speed at 1600Mhz. The multi is at 6. Bus speed at 266. Rated FSB at 1066. Memory freq...

    SG03 questions...

    I acually put the sg01 and sg03 side by side at Fry's and chose the sg01 myself...it's smaller really..can fit it in a backpack. the depth of the two is acually the same, but the width of the sg01 is less.

    The Time Has Finally Come....New Computer (and my first SFF build)

    Hey Cisco, just curious what you have your DS2R set at...i've got it too with an E6600 and some PC8500 crucial. I've been thinking of replacing the PSU fan myself for something like the Scyth 120, but so far it really doesn't need it..runs pretty cool. I don't have it over clocked either but...

    MSI P6N SLI-FI / Platinum (650i) Thread

    I realize this may have been answered before, but i'm new and have searched and am not finding whether or not it is beneficial to buy ram over 800. I see that Corsair DDR-8000 seems to be popular and stable....but does it really make a difference that justifies the price jump? Also, I hear of...

    MSI P6N SLI-FI / Platinum (650i) Thread

    Thanks Mark, but I was referring to the MSI P6N Platinum with those heatpipes...not sure if there is any heat issue or not...relating to inverting momos. If anyone has a Lian Li case with this mobo and there is a problem please post. Maybe it's a non issue, but just wanted to make sure before...

    The Lian Li Gallery

    Can I put a MSI P6N Platinum in this case without any worry of rising temps? I heard something about motherboard inversion..not sure if that applies with this case...but this one's on my top 3 list of which one to get.

    Got my Westinghouse LVM-37W3 37" 1080p display today!

    thanks guys. I'll keep the 8800 640mb in mind. Speaking of the Westy...what would be some of your close seconds for a 32 or 37? I'm also wondering if 37 would really be too big...but there may not be such a thing :)

    Got my Westinghouse LVM-37W3 37" 1080p display today!

    Would you all with this westy or bigger recommend a 8800 or can I use something smaller and still maintain a good picture? I was considering something like 7900GS but maybe I should just step up and have dx10 since it's not much more. My other question would be if I go 8800GTS...would 320 be...

    MSI P6N SLI-FI / Platinum (650i) Thread

    Hey guys. First post here...hope it's a good one. I have been following for some time now, but am now getting ready to build a core 2 system. My question: I hear of talk about inverting motherboards with heatpipes may have temp increase issues...with cases such as the Lian Li. Is this true...
