New P5B Dlx BIOS - 711

- Start date
Anyone else noticed that CPU speed is INCORRECT in bios/boot-up ? Even at 320 fsb - which is 2.88 gig - it says 2.99 gig ! Mate with same motherboard just upgraded to same bios release and his is the same ! anyone else getting this.
In windows/ CPU-Z its fine .. correct reading.
BUT ORTHOS was unstable 10 MHz below what was stable at 4:5 with 06 release !

Thanks Bing- have you seen the CPU speed incorrectly reported in bios before then ? Presumably it doesn't do any harm does it ? Its just for a few reasons its a pain in the neck to get to the CMOS reset.
I think Orthos wasn't stable as I set the CPU voltage one notch too low - forgot what settings I'd had before - so I think thats OK now.

I know its been asked before, but I've just searched around lots and lots of threads, what vcores are "safe" for 24/7 on air ? I've got up to with this bios 357x9, which is 3.22 but Vcore is @ 1.46. (E6600 processor) - max temps in Orthos blend, using TAT to monitor temps is 54C, and MB temp 40C
thanks,
Mark.

It didn't say beta at any time for me before or after I posted, but I noticed they changed the date and stuff on it too, so it might have been listed as beta at some point. In any case, if it said beta when I saw it, I would've said so
That probably depends how brave you are or how high your temps get...which ever comes first
There's no real answer to your question. "Safe" to some is default Vc and only default Vc. For others, it might be 1.65Vc or whatever the cooling allows

I just hope it'd still boot at 465

What is this "Asus C.G.I."? It's under the NB chipset options.. I don't remember it in the 614. What should it be set at, auto, enable, or disable?
