Isnt support on P35 hit n miss, and X38+ support even worse?

I tried one in my board (P5K-E) and it booted up, then i rebooted and applied overclock. Nothing. So i whipped it back out, as it wasnt really mine (cheeky smile).
So THAT one didnt approve of a 510 mhz FSB and 1.575vcore, anyway :p

bah you kids and your "too fancy to work" motherboards :D

Something in the flavour of a P5B and you're flying ;)

Cheers Guys, thanks for the pointers, johnny your ahead already as you've got a pot.

ok, give us a few clues, which mb is best or chipset or is there another celeron which will perform greater, cold bug temp?

as you can see from questions, this is a new avenue i'm doing down, but will be fun thats for sure,and not a great deal of expense, could be wrong though,

Like kenny said, it's best to match your cpu to your motherboard in terms of their generation, so a 975/965 based motherboard would be ideal.

I've got a P5B deluxe and a commando and in fairness I gotta say the deluxe has been easier to work with, the commando probably has more potential and the voltage options you need but can be quite the temperamental child to work with.

The P5B also has been widely used so you'll have a lot of resources at your disposal. Vmods are no problem and insulation isn't a biggie, I just cut out a gasket for the socket area and went from there no problems.

Does the P5B still have those stupid BOOT issues, or has the BIOS revisions ironed it out?

Don't even attempt these chips on the Maximus. A 340J borked mine. :( The Gigabyte X38 supports them though.

Quirky?! I was tempted to buy a taser to electicute it everytime it tried that on :ohmy:

Instead I sold it on eBay and bought an ABIT :p

Why what happened there?

P5B starts up 2secs then shuts down 2secs then restarts and runs, fine foe air/water and non controlled SS, but Machs hate it as turns off as power goes off, dont have mach so not total shure, but that what Stocky refering to

Way to get round that (at least with an LS) is to have the controller powered off a second PSU that's been jump started.

oh, when I had the P5B you had to leave it for 15mins or even one guy was found leaving it in the freezer :lol:

I guess that they have sort of sorted it out then! :unsure:

Nah, that just stops your phase unit shutting down when you exit the BIOS a lot of (Asus?) boards do that when you change certain settings like chipset timings.

I power my Mach's from a separate PSU as they have 180second delay start after every shutdown. Asus boards can be a bugger for cold boot problems.

It's a conflict of interests, as hard reboots can be required to set certain things like dividers and BIOS engineers usually "play safe" and just go with a reboot after any/all/no(?) changes :S

can you please explain how you do this :cool:

PSU with a paperclip from the green wire to a black wire. Molex powering the Mach. Switch on the PSU an the Mach turns on.

I found a 400w Q-Tec which is ideal for this. At a push I power a LCD display and 2 extra fans from it too. But only for benching. I don't want to push my luck.

You can buy a cable that connects the green line across two PSU via their mobo plugs. One comes free with the CoolerMaster Stacker.

yeah i got a custom phase with a g-froster controller. As said asus boards love the hard reboot and its a royal pita waiting after each reboot. Just wondering how to bypass it really

Oh dear GODŽ!! I used one of those in an old PC, and it blew up, literally. Ruined my ram too. EVIL THINGS!!!:no:

I've heard many such stories with the cheap PSU's as they don't offer the same level of protection if something does go wrong.
