Hi,
My Dad gave me his aging Pioneer VSX-D512 Receiver. Here's the specs:
Spec Here
Im planning to hook up these receiver to my Asus P5E-VM HDMI thru onboard coaxial.
Now what speakers do you recommend for this receiver? Im into 50% games 50%music/movies.
Im looking forward...
Looks like your aiming is ITX rig, if it's seriously Core i7 gaming rig, stay away from 300Watts PSU.
Asus, EVGA and DFI release their X58 uATX mobo's. Majority of mATX Core i7 user's here have a positive feedback from asus. Try to look for SFF Gallery, MassiveOverkill and CrazyRob made a good...
Hi Guys & Gals,
We know the fact that one problem in A05 is heat on top panel, which do you prefer to use on these case?
1. Lian Li BS06 or
2. 2 x 120mm Radgrill + 2pcs 120mm fan on top?
Thanks

NichoTL - I have already tried mix and match:
PLL 1.58 - Failed to post
DRAM 2.1 - failed to post
FSB 1.32 - Failed to post
NB 1.37 - Failed to post
NB beyond 1.39v and up will cause some error that relates to my memory :(
Im now looking for the Team Xtreem PC6400 D9GMH. They have a...
Yeah, im really disappoint with my mems.
Ok, maybe this coming weekends (saturday, asia pacific time)
Btw, NichoTL and bing, thanks for being active here. I hope you guys stay longer on this thread until Asus X58 comes out :)
Ok, I'll try to email Corsair for this issues. I know they have a good feedback from customer support. In fact I've got a free modular cables and some corsair badges, pen and flyers for free :)
OK try with 2.2V. It seems strange to me that it won't post at all with 2.1V. If it doesn't work...
Actually with my current settings (890Mhz DDR2) it's already rated 2.1v. Everytime I change the value from 890 to 1066 it won't post, I need to switch off my PC first before it post the "Overclocking Failed" on bootup :(
NichoTL - This is default for my E8400, bios settings are:
FSB 333
CPU Ratio 9
FSB Strap 333
PCI-e Freq 100
Dram Freq 1000Mhz
Timings 5-5-5-15
Vdimmm 2.10v
I have tried to run my mems on memtest for 5 hours without any issues.
Thanks - Battlestar
Ok, I didn't touch anything except the Dram Freq, from 890 to 1068. Still got an Overclocking Failed post :(. Oh well need to rest for now maybe my luck is not enough today :)
bing - as promised, here's the better screen cap :)
NichoTL - I'd tried your recommendations earlier but when I set the Dram Freq into 1068Mhz upon booting I've got a message Overclocking Failed! :(
Update: I've tried to increase the Vcore 1 notch, failed to post. 1 notch on Dram...
Hi NicholTL,
Sorry I confused on this part:
Does it mean that if select the 5:6 (800Mhz), it displays 800Mhz on Bios settings but when looking on CPU-Z on windows will show 1066Mhz?
Yeah, on my CPU-Z validation it displays PC6400 though I have PC8500. I thought this is normal because our mobo supports natively 800Mhz only? Sorry for mix-up this is my first time to run PC8500 (former PC6400 dram user). Also, I thought the 1:1 ratio is everyone's prefer to use? Lastly, is...
One of the best mATX just to be safe :) I think DFI is still superior over Asus although I haven't owned that mobo. My E8400 can run 4Ghz on 1.296v without any issues, of course stable on 18hours stable on Prine95 and 2hrs on OCCT latest version :)
Anyone tried the Auzentech X-Fi Forte on this mobo? Im planning to purchase next month but Im afraid it won't fit on PCI-e due to spaces on rams :( Other solution would be put on the second PCI-e but im using ATI4850 + Accelero S1 with 2 x 92mm noctua fans.
Hi Bing,
Last night, I have confirmed that my mobo is 1.00G version but the pencil mod work perfectly :)
As you have seetings above, were almost the same except for the DRAM Freq, CPU Voltage and PLL Voltage. My PLLv can run 1.54v. As I have said few pages ago, my mobo can run 500x8...
Yeah, it's kind of overkill:) Btw, I did the pencil mod. I noticed that the Vcore in BIOS is the same results in CPU-Z, is that a sign the the pencil mod works now? Thanks
Im using Noctua NH-U12P using Push-Pull config, I mount the Noctua NB cooler with stock mounting parts but I changed the push pin into nuts & bolts + screw to secure the NB. Could be the Motherboard temp in Everest is also the NB temps? I love this board it can run 500x8 on E8400 E0 :) But...
Hi,
How do we know the temps of Northbridge? I changed the stock NB into Noctua NC-U6 and im still thinking if I need to put a 40mm fan or leave it as passive.
Thanks
Can you please post your Bios setting for E8400 @ 3.9Ghz?
Im stable @ 3.6Ghz using E8400 E0 but failed to attemp on 4Ghz. it won't post on 410FSB and up, it may limiting my mems or what?
Btw, herewith is the settings for my 3.6Ghz
FSB Strap: 333
FSb Freq: 400
PCI-e Freq: 100
DRAM Freq...
Same situation here. Im using A2 and I just want to hear your opinion if Auzentech Prelude is too much for my speaker? Definitely for 50% for games & 50% for sounds/movies.
Thanks - BS
Thanks Alai, my A2's arrived today :). Currently connected to onboard sound using minijack. I think I've got the old version of A2's (black piano color), I've found on their website that the new version have some Audioengine logo and name on the front speaker. It doesn't matter to me as long as...
Ok, I think i'll go with Prelude. If I use the 3.5mm from the Prelude to the A2, would that still carry good(?) audio signals? Any recommendations what connection should I use?
Thanks buddy :)
X-Fi card is nice but im afraid it won't fit on my mATX (Asus P5E-VM) mobo coz my ATI4850 occupies 3 PCI slot due to Accelero HSF + Fan :(
