Anandtech Dominator memory on the 975X Sometimes I don't understand how these reviews work. The Corsair forums specifically state that the 975 chipset cannot achieve memory clocks > 1000GHz and remain stable. The P965 can. Yet this review has it doing just that. Comments Phile?

965 vs. 975. I currently have the P5W Dh and am very happy with it. I am running an E6400 OC'd to 3.28GHz with watercooling. Rock stable with memory OC to 820Mhz. My question concerns the new Quad-Core systems. I guess I have been disappointed that the P5B seems to clock so...

Why is that so important? How about the mem timings. More stabiltiy with OC. etc. This sounds like a lipstick on a pig BIOS.

Asus ever going to give us more memory timing control?? I'm sick of these once a week, useless BIOS updates.

Can you please give me specs (what C2D Version, are you overclocking??, what is your FSB, memory timing etc.) Thanks, Neil

Any other changes besides that?

Has anyone run Corsair PC8500 Dominator memory on the P5W DH? I was looking at : Corsair XMS2 DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Timing 5-5-5-15 I have got my E6400 to FSB 410 Vcore 1.40, vMCH: 1.65, OC to 3.2Ghz with water-cooling My memory is Corsair XMS2 PC26400. 2GB at 4-4-4-12 at 2.1...

Yes I have that beep. Its fine. I also have seen that F1 error before. I think the board does have a bug of some type regarding the ATAPI detection. If you are booting into Windows and all is well there then you are good to go. Good Luck!! Neil

OK. What is your boot order? Make the RAID array boot FIRST. Then the DVD. Did that help? Thanks, Neil

Got your picture. One question. What is your BOOT order. Make the RAID boot first (before the IDE DVD device) and let me know if this problem goes away. Thanks, Neil

NO SATA drives are not difficult. My advice is to not put anything on the JMICRON controller. Use the primary IDE channel below the floppy for your DVD or CD-ROM drives. That JMICRON controller is flaky. If you Google JMICRON and P5W DH you will see what I mean. There are numerous reports of...

No, Leave your Raptors alone. Move your DVD jumpers (on the actual drive) to CABLE SELECT, plug it into the IDE Slot right below the floppy connector and boot. On page 2-32 the manual indicates CABLE SELECT or MASTER. If Master is not working then use CABLE SELECT. The ASUS CDc sucks. I...

Hi, See if in BIOS going under IDE and changing the IDE detect time to 20 secs makes a difference. Then diable the JIMICRON controller in BIOS. Also Are you overclocking? What is your memory running at and lastly do you have external hard drives connected??? are you using a...

Try removing the extra Raptor. Boot into XP Shut down, attach the 2nd Raptor. Boot into the BIOS Check to see if the 2nd Raptor is detected. Set your Boot Order Make sure your IDE is setup in BIOS per 5-30 in the manual Make sure that CONFIGURE SATA IS CONFIGURED AS IDE (not RAID...
