    The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

    @ Quaffapint Thanks Quaffapint. The CPU is usually no higher than 46 during gaming...but the motherboard is 52 is the 52 ok for the mobo?

    Is 52C during gaming too hot for this motherboard? My CPU doens't go past 46C during gaming. I think the mobo temp is showing this because the GTX 8800 ultra (612) is blowing hot air around (it runs at 78C). This hot air is being sucked out the top of the P180B case via the Freezer7 on the...

    @ quaffapint I had this happen to me when I installed 2 more GB (4gb total) of Corsair XMS2 PC6400 C4 Ram. I had to reduce the mem clock speed from 800 to 667. Perhpas start that way? In the bios set the mem to unlinked, then change the speed by entering 667 manually. I have the...

    Does anyone know for sure what these speedfan sensors correlate to? ...just want to make sure. temp1:42c, temp2:46c, temp3:25c, Core0:31c, Core1:30c The ASUS probe's CPU measurement matches speefan's temp1....and the ASUS probe "motherboard" matches what speedfan has for temp2. I assume...

    I answered my own question....you do indeed lose a PCI slot if you install dual cards/SLI. What the heck am I doing using a wireless card anyhow? Allz I need is a sound card. My HR-05 went on today with no issues. 3 hrs of Crysis and mobo temp went from 52 down to 44...awesome. I still...

    The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

    Does anyone have dual GTX 8800 ultras (768MB/612mhz) installed on this board? It looks like if I put a second card in there I lose one of the PCI slots below the lower PCIE slot. Is this indeed the case? It doesn't even look like the GTX 8800 ultra (768MB/612mhz) will clear the PCI...

    Thanks! I'll give that a whirl if the HR-05 STILL doesn't allow me to change the orientation to blow out the back. I think it's been working well blowing up...but now the fan of the Freezer 7 will bump up against the HR-05 if I keep the FReezer 7 blowing up...so I don't have a choice (I think).

    Thanks! The HR-05 arrives today (along with an HR-05-SLI for the SB)...I'll keep my fingers crossed. Thanks for giving me some hope!

    The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

    Hello everyone. I'm a bit of a noob. I've searched as thoroughly as I could to see if the HR-05 heatsink will work on the northbridge if I have a Freezer 7 installed as well. I have already had to turn the Freezer 7 to point upwards so it blows out the top fan of my Antec P180B case because...
