Update (Sept 16, 2009): Other people are having same BSOD issues as me with their MSI boards:
BSOD msi p5-gd65 core i5 team extreme ddr3 1333mhz ram
BSOD msi p55 gd53 + corei5 750 team elite ddr3 1333mhz 2gb x 2
123Bob on MSI boards claims to have Memory Issues with a new p55-cd53 board with an i7 860 CPU and Corsair RAM.
I am confident the MSI team is working towards addressing these problems as more users report their experiences. Still thought I would note it.
As a side note, there also appear to be issues with Gigabyte Boards (UD2 and UD4P) in showing only 4GBs of ram vs. 8GBs of ram when all 4 DIMMs are populated. It may be that due to the immaturity of BIOSes and the P55 chipset, it will take time for these problems to be sorted out.
It would be interesting to add more data points for Asus P7P55D.
-------------------------
Board: MSI P55-CD53 Bios 1.1 Version
Memory: OCZ DDR3 PC3-12800 Gold Low Voltage Dual Channel CL8-8-8-24 1.65V #OCZ3G1600LV4GK
CPU: Core i7 860 SLBJJ
Cooler: Stock Intel
PSU: Corsair 520 Modular
Videocard: MSI 4890 1GB factory OC
I have set everything to Optimized defaults in the latest bios.
- MemTest86+ v. 2.11 passes with 1 memory stick at DDR3 1600 8-8-8-24 1.651V (edited: Does not pass over 12 hour period with 2 sticks - fails Test #5 and #8)
- MemTest86+ v. 2.11 passes with 1 memory at DDR3 1066 7-7-7-18 1.651V (edited: Does not pass over 12 hour period with 2 sticks - fails Test #5 and #8)
- Tried setting CPU voltage to +0.200 from stock of 1.128V for a total of 1.328V (1.27V in CPU-Z 1.52)
Tried running the memory at 1066 and 1600. The system fails Prime95 Blended test within 1-2 minutes. Sometimes the mouse completely freezes on the screen when running Prime 95 Blend within seconds of starting the test requiring reboot. Otherwise the system BSOD at random even when I am browsing the Internet.
- CPU temperatures are 40*C idle and 74*C load, which is still under the threshold.
- 3.3V rail is 3.30V, 12V rail is 12.11V
The system also fails after enough passes of Resident Evil 5 Benchmark (fixed).
Same PSU and Videocard ran in the Q6600 @ 3.4ghz system (sig below) without any problems.
I am running out of ideas....mobo?
