Phenom 9850BE low voltage overclocking results!

[kenkickr]

I received my board back from Asus...The same fukn board I sent them!! I know there are problems with it:

When I had my raptors in raid 0 on the Marvell controller Seatools for Windows and WD Diag both said there was an issue. I formated the drives and tested them individually...not a problem at all. My X-fi card was causing issues with windows, after I sold my Raptors, where during games and even movies the system would just lockup and error report would show an issue occured from the Creative driver. Tried the sound card in my friends system for over a week and not one problem. The Big issue was when I had my 3870's in crossfire the colors would flicker dim/bright constantly only when playing games or benchmarking, but when running each card by themselves not a problem. All of this occured even without the O/C in my specs.

I guess I'll have to see what my 3870X2's crossfired are going to do on this board. If the flickering issue happens again I'm going to shit in a bag and send it back to Asus with the motherboard! J/K but hopefully you catch my frustration.

no, but the errors started yesterday. Plus I am using my athlon now and its all good. no problems at all. Every time I tried to use something cpu intensive it'll crap out and it wasnt stable no matter what I did, even at default settings.

nice bro, how do you like that CPU water block?

So far It's great! im going to be ocing all night and spamming this thread more than likely! haha

haha, my phenom crapped out, so I won't be spamming for a while. I might just get like a 5400 blackie and wait till the 45nm, or I'll probably get impatient like always and get a 9950BE, the new 125w one

Are you for real? Man thats almost making want to switch back to test it. But would take to much time.

There has to be some sort of fix for this BS.

Thanks for the input though.

i saw this in a thread some where in the forums....i cant find it now....

Well guys I for some reason thought I was broke, but seems like something went good for me and I have a few bucks. Looks like I might go hunting for a Phenom tomorrow, if not then I will order one of the 125w 9950BE's of newegg. I will soon be spamming this thread with more results, this time, I'll be a bit more conservative with the CPU

the new asus m3a79 pwns

well to put it to you this way, asus tend to have some problems with their boards, example, Kenkicr, with his current 1, my P4S8X, and an older SLI 939 Asus board. I swear their compatibility is horrible, support sucks. Lets just say this I had the P4S8X, ATI R9700 Pro AIW, well it took me a long ass time to figure out how to get the board stable with the video card, i RMAd the video card, same problems,it took a few bios flashes of the mobo, newer drivers for the mobo, and at the time VPU Recovery, and Automatic restarts disabled to not be problematic, and set a graphics mode to UW or something like that, well after that i switched to AMD with a MSI K7N2 Delta-L, out of the box the video card ran fine with the motherboard, but that RMA proved the Motherboard was at fault and not the video card. P4S8X was my last Asus board, i will never buy an Asus board again

obviously everybody has their opinions. I completely respect yours, however. Based on experiences my last two boards have been ASUS. I had the M3A32-MVP DELUXE. That board was an extremely awesome board. Never had any issues, ran strong all times, easy to use BIOS. I can't complain about that board. The only thing that was wrong with that board was the power management. The V regs weren't great and that def. didn't help with overclocking or anything of that nature. Other than that its an "A+" board.


Now, the M3A79-T Deluxe. Imagine the M3A32, with the SB750, ACC to help with the overclocks (3.6 GHz out of my 9850, but it gave up on me) and the power management is extremely good. What ever you set the voltage at in the bios, that is exactly what it is at in windows, and with ACC the voltage tends to climb a bit when its needed (under load). This board is amazing, i'm shocked with how well it performs. This without a doubt is a "A+" board.

Now, about support, i've never had a problem with an ASUS board, so I can't give my thoughts about that.

Just thought, some of you might want to know what I thought about ASUS boards. I don't think the DFI can get any better, although if its not ASUS, I rather DFI

sorry to hear of your misfortune bro... i've been using Vista 64 for ever and never had any problems.... so i doubt its vistas fault for the errors... go ask Psyclone for help.... he is a... umm never mind... just pm him and tell him whats going on... im sure he'll have an answer for ya..

Why would you use that Aphex? a secondary clock is from having a o/c to high.... id think twice about using a program like that since it's not a MS program....

Thing is I don't even know how to use it. I could only make it a bin file after that I don't know what to do with it.

I'm trying to see if it would fix the Clock interrupt bsod.
