@panther ive tested the with memtest86+ multiple times it passes @ stock 1.500v

Aside from that ive made some progress apparently it was the NB or HT speed that was throwing it off, defaults for those where 2000/2400 I set them to 2000/2000 and everything looks good now @ 4.4Ghz via 22x multi :rockout:

Chicken Patty · Jan 16, 2012

Good stuff. Just get the CPU stable first, then once the CPU is stable work on the NB. Doing one thing at a time just makes it easier. Good luck! :toast:

Is anyone else getting weird temps? I have used HWMonitor,CoreTemp and OCCT, and they all show about the same temp,my specs are:
CPU:AMD FX-8150 @3.6ghz
CPU COOLER:Cooler Master Hyper 212+
MOBO:ASUS ASUS Sabertooth 990FX
GPU:EVGA GeForce GTX 460 SE 1GB
RAM:2x4GB Crucial Ballistix DDR3 1600mhz
CASE:Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced
PSU:Ultra X-Pro 600w

And the temps according to those programs i was using are 10c on idle(in a room that is 65f),and about 33c under prime95 load,these temps seem odd to me,is it normal?or should i worry?,cause i only have 3 days left to return any of the parts to the store.

Batou1986 · Jan 16, 2012

i noticed temps are off by about 11* at max load more so at idle compared to bios readings

Seems like the issue the Thuban's had. When I had my 1090T, I just used coretemp and I adjusted the offset to +10º. This way the reading it would give me would be more accurate. Only other program that actually reported it correctly was PC Probe II software that came with my ASUS Crosshair IV 890FX board I had.

"Important News For ASUS Crosshair V Formula Motherboard Owners

I have contacted ASUS pertaining to the CPU/NB LLC problem and it turns out that it is not the bios. It turn out the bios chip is faulty. He asked me when I got my board and I thought this was kind of weird so I asked him why he needed to know after I told him.

So, IMO if you have a Crosshair V Formula mobo, then I recommend that you call ASUS (U.S. Toll Free - 1-812-282-2787) and find out if your board needs a new bios chip.

This is interesting, I got my board in August.

However, I don't see any socketed chip on the board, so are you expected to have SMT soldering skills to replace the chip? Or do they just mean they are sending a CD with a new file to flash I wonder?

i´ve seen a couple of CHV and all are socket Bios Chips

the only problem what i had is that all has been with Bios rev. 0404 , and FX chips are running only since 0813

How did you determine the difference for load temperatures?

What "I" did was since PC probe was actually correct, I figured out the difference between PC Probe and other temperature monitoring softwares and got about 10-11*c in difference.

I used it back when I had the Crosshair IV.

My board has a barcode that ends with 0404... what does that mean and why is it a fail?

yes, this is the Bios Info (mainboardoard Bios info -> rev 0404) newer boards might have higher rev. nr

either you get an older cpu > sempron, phenom II and flash it to latest Bios to run FX chips
or you contact asus for new Bios chips with latest bios installed, should be free of charge

or if you have made it already ... never mind

AphexDreamer · Jan 16, 2012

Yeah guys just hit Asus up and tell them your P/N or Serial number and they will send you a fixed bios with instruction on how to remove the old socket bios and replace it with the fixed one.

Batou1986 · Jan 16, 2012

Whats everyone using for stress testing? I don't know what I should trust I'm stable in prime for hours but OCCT-Linpac test will error after 20~30 minutes.

Chicken Patty · Jan 16, 2012

I personally like prime95.

My Bios for my CHV was 6*** so I flashed it to the newest one. Is the BIOS hardware defective and if so, how do we know?

tilldeath · Jan 16, 2012

I know it's a fairly new processor, but anyone see any info on good FX binning numbers to look for?

Call them and when you provide them with the information you have they will let you know. But when I talked with her she said all CHV were infected with the bad BIOS chip and would only replace them when people called.

So, starting point(stock cooler):

Chicken Patty · Jan 17, 2012

starting point? I don't want to see the finishing point! :eek:

It's -30c outside, so I grabbed the parts, installed windows, and clocked on the stock cooler.

Then i took it outside.

:roll:

It's chilling in BIOS ATM. Still using the stock cooler, will see what the temps drop gets me.

EDIT:

Results:

Next time will have to let the board and cpu chill for longer. I only waited an hour or so tops after the initial cold boot to make sure everything was still working.

Still, not bad for the stock cooler.
