heya guys
firstly hello and sorry the forst post im making is a request for help...
not the best intro eh... sorry...
im having a few issues with my x48-dq6...
firstly it doesnt boot from cold.. it will power up, fans and leds go and it just sits there... if i hard reset it boots fine... weird..
ive tryed all the bios' available but they all do the same. im now on f8e
im considering sending it back for an RMA based on that alone.
but...
this is my 2nd board (RMA'd the last one) because of similar reasons (altho it was worse bios wise)
anyway wierder still is that it will not overclock even slightly via the bios. not even 001fsb
i think it could be a memory issue with this board but wanted to check here cos you guys know your stuff!!
anyway here is a list of my kit.
GA-x48-DQ6
e5300
4x1gb OCZ Reapers pc8500 (5-5-5-15) (2.3V)
I can overclock the chip on stock volts to 3.4 easy as pie in easytune 6 so i dont understand why i cant do the same via the bios..
here are my stock and overclocked screenshots showing cpuz, memtest, coretemp.
stock (2.6)
overclocked (3.4)
and here are my bios settings
