Can you provide a pic of this setting? Maybe my bios doesn't have that setting because I haven't seen it before.

 

[Supreme0verlord]

Ok, I just updated my bios and my idle temps seem to have gotten lower, WTF?!

Something is seriously screwed up here, it definitely is not that cold in my room or even outside..........

 

[Darknova]

That's no worse than mine that says it's at a constant 40'C.

AOD is the only utility that gives me the proper temps.

 

[Supreme0verlord]

Well the bios reports the idle temps at 7c to so idk. And i'm running Windows 7 now so I can't use AOD.

EDIT: Ok, I found the fix for aod in W7 and it reports the same thing..........

 

[3dsage]

I have the same issure with my 720

Enmity what videocard(s) do you have?

Eureka I have made a discovery ! The VDDA voltage setting is 2.5v on auto, however if you max it out 2.8v it will make stable clocks possible with lower CPUv and previously unstable at any voltage clocks stable sometimes

ill have to play with this, i took a chance and cranked the voltage(vcore) as high as i could using the fsb and lowered HT and NB settings, but all that power couldnt stabalize 4285 fully and i couldnt cross that line even unstably.... i think it was around 1.65-1.7x Vcore . maybe this is the key... VDDA, i have it but i have never touched it since i wasnt sure what it did, and there was no mention in the manual.

i'm @4.2ghz on air so far 1.45v and only using AOD

955?

 

[Enmity]

Master i have 2x HIS iceQ 4850's - the standard editions not turbo - they dont seem to overclock for shit lol...but that could just be a crossfire thing?

My corsair xms2 doesn't seem to wanna move over stock speed at 4-4-4-12@2.1V either which i find quite weird...im running it unganged - would ganged be better?

 

[cdawall]

955?

yep full retail chip

 

[Devtech]

i have a M3N HT Deluxe (BIOS 1701) paired with a AMD P2 940 BE overclocking at 3.7ghz Being cooled by a Thermaltake SpinQ

I have ran Orthos for 12 hours and have not seen any issues.

the following picture is my Bios Settings:


and my results on CPU Z:


Anyone with anymore knowledge on this motherboard can share with how to see a bigger increase on cpu speed and a more stable overclock? everything ive tried over any of these settings have resulted in a BSOD unfortunately

 

[cdawall]

that cooler is not the best for oc'ing you may have hit your max with temps

 

[Devtech]

Core temp wouldnt show anything over 47c when Orthos was running and Full loading the cpu.

core temp can be up to 20C off on the 940BE the 955 is the 1st chip i have seen with a corrected temp monitor

what would you suggest to read a correct temp reading on the cpu?

 

[Assassin48]

what would you suggest to read a correct temp reading on the cpu?

i use Hwmonitor and core temp they both seem to say the samething

PC probe from asus's temp monitor sweet seemed pretty close

i use Hwmonitor and core temp they both seem to say the samething

they both measure the same internal temp diode which like the temp monitor on a brisbane is off


oh and look at the volts+clock on this

i was wondering my temps were high even tho i have a wc setup on some ultra kazi fans on the rads

so the asus temp monitor works on all mb or just asus branded?

just the asus

here is proof cpuz validation is way flawed

 

[Enmity]

some seriously low voltage haha

 

[cdawall]

some seriously low voltage haha

thats actual voltage

 

[Devtech]

looking at the AI Suite Temps and coretemp + hwmonitor they all differ maybe 2-3c

Well my 720 came in and guess what, here's the good news!

Then here's one of the heatsink and CPU, good thing I won't be using that weak heatsink.

And the new RAM, I was running DDR2 800 before, see how screaming fast I can get this stuff, if I can get my 4th core up and running looks like this setup will be sticking around for a while.

Right now I am updating my bios to the oldest versio nthat supports PII's then gonna give the 4th core a run, hopefully it fires up. There are so many options ofr ACC in this bios. I can select how muhc + or - I want to give each core, and steppings P0, P1, P2, and P3. So I'm kinda lost atm.

 

[ShadowFold]

Mine didn't come in today unfortunately. Tomorrow hopefully..

 

[1Kurgan1]

That sucks, if you ordered it off the egg as the OEM one like I did hope you get a 0904, I was jumping aorund when I seen those numbers. I explained it all the gf and I didn't care that she had the look on the face like "why are you telling me this?"
