new motherboad, Asus P5Q3

hi'

I changed motherboard for an Asus P5Q3, and add 2x1gb ram,
so far I can say as quite all Asus mb, it's a great one
oc is a piece of cake, voltage are precise not like the msi I had before ...
cpu vcore start at 1.27v, I couldn't give so low voltage to my cpu with this msi board.
the cpu vid is 1.325 ...

for now, got fsb333 easy, I let it burnin' for a week or so and will jump higher, surely trying to reach these 3.6ghz

I have the P5Q3 Deluxe.
Today I got a 21,322 3DMark06 score @ 3.6

But I'm not getting the full 1600MHz memory or 3.8 that I got with the 780i.

Good post on settings here:

BTW, I've asked questions in that thread and in the memory category and not getting any responses or help?
So I guess I'm on my own....

hi'
as I see in your other post, you did not set the dram frquency to 1600,
set it to manual and set it to 1600, leave the ratio alone for the moment, it should boot with ram 1600 ... I think imho, of course

my Q6600 runs more than fine @3ghz fsb 333 / ram 1333, temp 30°c after playing over 2 hours
ram on manual and the settings follow the fsb ... ie : fsb=300 ram freq = 1200, so fsb 333 = ram 1333 and so on
