I7 wont post

[billownz]

am I doing somthing wrong?

i7 920
rampage II extreme
6gb dominator
(2) gtx260 core216 SuperClocked
corsair 850
coolermaster v8
antec1200 fans on medium

I have my i7 set to:
blck: 3.64 ghz (20x multi)
qpi: auto
unclk: auto
voltage: auto
dram: auto (1400)
Intel turbo boost/speed boost: disabled

and my computer runs great, low temps, no memtest errors... yet no-matter what my over clock, it doesn't post after a long hibernation. ive also tried safe configurations that are known to work, same issue. I love this computer, all I do is press a button and the board resets to its default bios... but its annoying.

any tips?

spoke to some people with similar build, hibernate = bad?

there is a new bios update that might fix that, did you try updating?

Waking up from s3 sleep mode is a known issue across most x58 boards. Usually it happens when the baseclock exceeds 150 and may work the first try after waking up from sleep. However, after the first try you might be black screened and no video signal will be sent to the monitor. A lot of manufacturers are trying to fix the problem...there were some promising beta BIOS's from ASUS that should be in the final stages soon but there is speculation suggesting that it's a problem with the i7 chipsest that can not be solved through a BIOS update. I'm remaining optimistic.

For now I just have sleep mode turned off through windows.
