** The Official ASUS P5N-E SLI & Ultra 650i Thread **

Incidentally, has anyone seen 500+ FSB overclocks with an E6300 on air cooling? Seems to me that the highest safe overclock achievable for an E6300 on air is 3.4-3.5 GHz at a stretch.

Yes - about P10 of this thread OC_A64 was doing 500MHZ+ runs with 600MHz FSB runs on the RAM iirc.

Has anyone got their P5N-E do go to sleep correctly? I'm using Vista and when I try and put it to sleep it seems to but as soon as the screen goes black it fires up again back into Vista.

Any ideas?

Still can't get the system to stay asleep / stand by. Is this working for everyone else?

I might be wrong as I haven't had a look at the back of my board since i installed it and haven't taken the nb heatsink off, but i'd presume they're the usual little black plastic expanding clips. In which case you'd need to remove the mobo from your case, get a pair of needle nose pliers, squeeze the little clips at the back of the mobo and push through... in my past experience of these, you need to be careful not to squeeze the clips too hard or you'll destroy them - if indeed it matters to you to keep the heatsink intact.

Yeah, I tried that the other day when I was changing my heatsink and i didn't have pliers delicate enough. Those pins are absolutely impossible to get off without the right tool, so I gave up in a huff. Maybe another day.

Minstadave, any pics of that Zalman on your N/B?

Okay - I sorted it. I had to set jumpers USBPW1-4 and USBPW5-8 from pins 1-2 to pins 2-3. Well maybe I only needed to do one but I did them both together.

That made it stay asleep. However, when it woke up the keyboard didn't work! I also had to set jumper KBPWR from 1-2 to 2-3 to keep it powered. That solved the problem and now all is good.
 
hi guys, still battling with this board.

trying to get my crucial 10th anniversaries stable at 1t. in the yellow slots they error badly in memtest, i mean real badly with 1000's of errors from the start. this is at just 400 4-4-4-12 1t and 2.259volts, surely well within there ability. if i switch them to the black slots with the same settings i get one single error at around 60%. much better but not perfect. my chipset is at 1.5volts and i feel the ram shouldnt need anymore. cpu is on the 7 multi so it is safe to say the cpu is not a problem.
im on the factory bios still
anyone got any tips??

Anyone know the Heatsink Weight Limit for the CPU ?

You decided to make your own heatsink? :D

I would've thought any retail HSF for an LGA775 board would be suitable. The Tuniq Tower for instance has no problems with weight aslong as it's securely fitted.

On another note, anyone tried the vdroop mod yet for this board?

vdroop mod
 
Ive upped the voltage and enabled the 0.1+ volt option and started to push the cpu again. at the moment my e6600 is running stable at 3.8ghz, 2hours into orthos and still going strong. vcore is 1.47 under load (1.475 in bios + 0.1) and temps are v good. :)

4ghz looks possible but its gonna need 1.6vcore i recon, vdroop under load is looking like it maybe an issue with this board, as i'm loosing 0.1 under load atm.

still having little luck with 1t option, tbh cant be asked with it now as Im past 800mhz with 2t atm for 1:1 and this cpu speed.
 
Anyone got one of these?

just done the mod and although i have no idea what im doing apart from drawing lines with a pencil, it appears to have worked wonders and from what Speedfan is saying, my Vdroop is no more.
The Vcore setting applied in the bios actually shows correctly in the bios and on Speedfan.
My load temps have risen by about 2-4C but i spose thats down to a constant voltage, im sure i'l now be able to run with a lower voltage.
Speedfan is showing my Vcore to stay constant during Orthos as well.
Anybody else having seen a positive result?

Why don't the manufactures do this (obviously not with a pencil) in the design? What's the downside?

Great! What pencil did you use and how many strokes did you make?
