EP45-UD3P: Hits the FSB Wall

[cold.nut]

pushing my E6600 under LN2 this upcoming weekend. last session i couldn't get above a 550 FSB for the life of me! plenty of vMCH was supplied and VTT. it has me stumped past all research done on it! i haven't seen a UD3P that craps out before 560MHz FSB.

it's the CPU that has the FSB wall and not the board, P45 boards indeed go above 600 easily when the CPU allows

[cold.nut]

lowering the multiplier put me well below maximum clocks and the FSB still can't go above 550MHz.

 

i don't think its the CPU.. i have never heard of a UD3P falling short of 600MHz FSB. there has got to be a setting holding me up. these gigabyte boards are confusing!

vmch?

That's what we are telling you, you cpu haven't got a clock wall, but a bclk wall

And S775 didn't have base clock.

I meant fsb*

vMCH was 1.4v. i sold the board though, moved on to a REX

thats the nb, its need something like 1.6-2.2v for 750mhz with subzero temps...

[Eeky NoX]

Right Honda I use to set 1.46v minus to get 600 with my crappy chip

 

But indeed it ain't a board for high FSB but high memory freq trust me...

thats the nb, its need something like 1.6-2.2v for 750mhz with subzero temps...

 

vtt = 1.6-2.2v? or vMCH..

[Hondacity]

termination voltage is not nb voltage...
