Using this board for a couple builds.
Freaking cant figure out how to shut off intel speedtstep for the life of me in the bios. Also with a 4300 how can I get a 1:1 ratio? Board shipped with bios from 5 months ago and biostars site has no updates, anyone know where to get a new bios ?

i'm not at my computer right now, but it's probably under "processor features" or soemthing close to that.

you can use the modded bios's at Rebels Haven, they are pretty much the stock bioses but with certain settings preset for overclocking (i.e. cpu features disabled)

I am still not having any luck getting speedstep to shut off, I used the newest mod bios, funny thing is the 6 multi is always active if I have windows set to home/ office desk, when I launch orthos it still stays at 1200mhz lmao, if I put it on portable/laptop then the multi switches to 9 when i launch orthos.

No luck getting 1:1 on a 4300 either, so far this mobo sucks and is not worth the savings.

are you using this bios: P96CA119rh2? I'm still back on P96ca103rh but I have 0 problems with speed step. I'll have to double check all of my settings in windows too when i get home.

The P96CA119rh2 bios should allow you to run 1:1 with an e4300. Have you tried a cmos clear?

As far as speed step, you do have all the cpu features (except maybe virtualization) disabled, right?

Catch me on skype sometime maybe.

advanced bios options > cpu features

all should be disabled. Virtualization included as i am pretty sure no conroes have virtualization. And make sure Spread Spectrum is disabled too.

I haven't gotten to check my xp settings yet, but I think i generally leave mine on Home/Home office
