Asus P5B - Any "easytune" alternative?

furnace · 24 Jun 2007 at 19:34

I was just wondering if there's any Windows-based overclocking utility for my Asus P5B Deluxe? Like Easytune, but that's only for Gigabyte boards (I think?) whereas I have an Asus board.

I wouldn't use it to make my final overclock, but would just put the clock up slightly to see what effect it has on my temperatures, rather than rebooting umpteen times and changing things in BIOS

Of course my 'real' overclock would be done in BIOS, but it'd be much simpler to fiddle with the clocks in Windows so I can watch the temperature differences in TAT.

Cheers :cool:

Setfsb and MemSet should work fine on the P5B.

SetFSB comes up with an error when I click "Get FSB", and Memset only does memorys 5-5-5-15 timings, not FSB or anything

Thanks anyway!

Any more suggestions (or hints on getting SetFSB working / stuff I'm missing on Memset)?

Have you tried this version of Setfsb?

Ah, that one works

But will it overclock my RAM at the same time? If I increase my FSB, the ram's going to get OC'd too isn't it? Or will it stay at 800Mhz (thats what its set on in BIOS)?

Your memory will go up with the FSB.

Use this version of MemSet to change your memory timings on the fly if you need to.

you dont need one its so easy on a p5b

I just don't want to bother with restarts for the sake of seeing temperatures at different clocks
