Greetz,
I had a DS3 which didn't work out; after about 3 weeks, the HDD controller said seeyah later... then it stopped posting, no matter how long and what method you reset the cmos... So, thought i might try the SLI-DS4! Review was pretty good elsewhere, so i thought why not! DS3 I achieved 336FSB, 1.375V CPU and hit a wall HARD. No amount of Voltage would budge a thing - RAM, NB, Gmch, voltage maxed, tried in both BIOS & easy tune.
SLI-DS4 - so far i have been able to post at 300... and that was only twice. Then, I tried dropping it a bit... nope, no post. a bit more? no, no post. C'mon, 266? NOTHING! This is running multi at 6, and ram at 1:1 and every combo upwards. Currently running stable 220.... yay.
Specs:
E4300 with Ninja rev. B - nice n cool
Patriot DDR2 6400 PDC22G6400LLK running 2.2V and 4-4-4-12 manual all other ram settings default.
500W P/S
bios - every bell and whistle disabled and manual voltages for all. Tried from +0.0 to about +.3 on all mobo components... no help apparently.
any ideas? I have read all the stickys, and lived on other forums for a while now, so I know a little about the basics...
This board should go no problems to about 450 from other reports.
cheers!
Michael
