i am using a maximus formula se with a quad 6850 ocz 1150 watercooled mem using907 bios
same with all the bioses what is happening fails to boot on detect mem if i clear cmos it will boot to vista sw off same again clear cmos everytime all parts worked ok on watercooled set up and works fine once into vista temps seem fine cannt get accurate core vol but evap running at -40 no load no condensation present dont know what to try next thanks
 
hi problem was memory 2 pairs of w/cooled ocz identical no s but different when checked i originally had 1 pair in w/cooled pc bought another pair for phase/wc and when swapped over split the pairs wrong way in checked them again repaired them up working fine now thanks
 
I missed this as I was trying to get my X38 Bonetrail to work again...meh.

I know ALLLL about the Maximus Formula SE. Beware the loadline callibration on 907 bios.
 
well...it works. Disablling it allows better clocks. Ironically Vista boots with it enabled and XP doesn't at certain voltages. Voltages in XP go pear shaped. Vista is fine. Vista is more tollerant to hardware changes though. It's a pitty we need XP for one thing and Vista for another...well, for benchmarking anyway.
 
yeh in vista 64 i haven't seen anything unusual with vcore when loadline is enabled with 0907 so far.

but something about this bios is weird, i don't get voltage or temp readings for anything but for cpu and i keep getting storage device connection warnings in the systray...i'm thinking i might flash back to 0901 this has been the best bios for me so far.

hi the issue is still happening maybe fixed? was hanging at count mem on boot disconected all usb and boots 100% at moment i thought the 907 bios was supposed to fix this also can you tell me a temp pro to read core temp thanks and merry xmas to all
 
Yip phase takes temps to below freezing

Taken from weescotts article

The compressor compresses the refrigerant into a high pressure... Where in the condenser, it condenses to a liquid under high pressure and also at the same time gives up its heat. It then travels to the liquid line, where liquid refrigerant usually travels through a filter/dryer, which filters out particles and is a desiccant, meaning it absorbs moisture. From that point, it travels to the metering device, usually either a capillary tube, or Thermal Expansion Valve (TXV). These regulate the flow of the liquid refrigerant, because at this point is under far too much pressure to evaporate. Once it leaves the metering device, it enters the evaporator, where the liquid refrigerant boils off, sucking up the heat with it. It then travels down the suction line of the system, back through the compressor, and into the condenser.


:cool:Extreme "over clocking" Cooling:cool:

I thourght these quads didnt like - temps?
There's been an issue with some recent motherboards not being able to read the -ve temperatures and instead seeing them as 128C or something along that lines, and the BIOS then shutting the PC down to protect the CPU.

One way to eliminate this is to try booting the PC prior the the evaporator temperature getting too low and seeing if it works.

Ah i understand even further so the issue +ve/-ve but it is vice versa hence load line calibration referred to by weescot and marcsay. So due to the motherboard not recognizing the load line calibration (voltages) it throttles the CPU and thermal shut down occurs.

So how would you determine how low the evaporator temps should fall to before rebooting out of interest


Thanks Jokester

How odd - used to have this on one of my old Chilled+Pelted GFX cards, nice to see the problem has spread to other components!

What phase unit are you using and what has it been tuned to?

Some have cold bugs, which means that at x temperature the CPU won't boot. The QX9650 retail week 39 had some reports of a cold bug at -30c, while others are fine right down to around -80c IIRC...and again at even lower temperatures.

I have had no cold bug issues with my QX9650 week 40, all the way to -40c. It's luck of the draw.
 
hi the phase is a custom build on 404 blend runs at -40/-35load no prob booting with the cut in at -5 boots first time problem i was having was hanging on boot at count memory tried everything still hanging until i disconected usb keyboard/mouse wnt back to ps2 booting 100% now keeping fingers crossed thanks again
