i just purchased a new board......the same one. Probably i'll hotflash it but won't really need to. What are the chances of a hotflash killing both chips?
chances are you f*cked your system like i just did..........i just ran the update utility and it locked my pc meaning i had to manually reboot (which is recommended u never do), now my pc doesn't even POST. Im pissed. Anyone have a toasted board they could salvage the bios chip from?
the bios has been reset with clear cmos jumper at least 10 times today because pc was failing to boot with new changes.
right now the CPU is running at @ (according to cpu-z) 2400.7 mhz and 266.7 fsb and 1067 rated fsb with fsb set to manual 266.
The memory is set to auto with flex disabled...
no such luck here, with 5-5-5-15 settings it reverted to 197 fsb :-( tried pretty much everything but no go..
what a pisser... The ram is Ocz Pro dual channel optimized and has 5-5-5-15 right on its sticker ?!?!?!?!?!?
flexibility was enabled and when i turned it off the ram stayed at 200 fsb. I then tried setting mem to Auto and its now running at 266 which is still not 333. Fellas what bios options do i need to change to manually set the timings.
is it normal for my DDR667 to be doing 200 mhz when
CPU-Z clearly shows it can do 333 mhz with 5,5,5,15 timings?
Both sticks are OCZ and running in dual channel.
ok i now got it to run at 266 after updating the bios to v1.60..........this Q6600 even at stock speed goes through video conversion
and 3d max rendering like its nothing. I don't even think i'll bother to OC it until i can get a board that isn't as limited as this one, the speed
i'll gain...
im not impressed at all by this board, right off the get go its running at 2.3 GB and if i set it to manual 266 FSB it fails to boot,also had to manually set the OCZ DDRII 667 to its correct speed because it was runnning at 533....like wtf ?!?!?!
Hi fellas im new here and was just doing some homework. I purchased this board a few days ago and im still waiting for it to arrive.
My question is does anyone use (or have used) this board with both versions of the Core 2 Q6600 (B3 and G0 stepping).
I will be using this board along with a BFG...
