3.06 vcore and gnb max 6565

Optimal vcore for this cpu? 1.525 or 1.55?
First time I saw the bios the setting was 1.525 but the fail safe settings and the optimal settings recommend the 1.55 core.

look at the box that came with your processor it will be writen there most of the 3.06 have multi vid so 1.55 or 1.525 doesnt matter as long as u dont reach 1.7v

Anyone got "GOOD" sound out of GNB-Max 6565?

Hello,
I'm getting a very lousy sound out of my 6565. I tried all options such as with or without the S connector, 2, 4, and 6 channels, all possible inputs, different hardaware acceleration levels, etc.
The sound output is bad, and the microphone doesn't detect anything. I've noticed that many people were having the same problem. Does this mean that this MB requires a special speaker system? Can't I use two speakers like old times and get stereo sound out of them without any software/hardware tweaks?
Thanks for any help?

I have the same board but I didn't even try onboard sound. My experience with onboard sound on other boards has made me just start with a good pci sound card (sound blaster audigy). Every onboard sound I have tried either sounded bad or worse. If the board had a creative chip on it you may get medium quality. Don't waste money on new speakers to use with the onboard sound, spend the money on a soundcard. Of coarse if money is not an issue you could buy both.

Games and GNB Max

Oh Joy, more problems. None of the games that the kid had will run on this machine. I've been to the ATI website and they show no issues with any of the games other than Battlefield 1942. However on EAs forums, apparantly they are having problems with one of the expansions. I'm sure that if the problems turn out to be MSI related, I'll get no help.

I had the same problem Radeon 9700 pro / GMB Max mobo. this is what I did,
uninstalled all video drivers from the computer. /reboot
put 256 in the agp apeture size
installed the latest drivers from ATI , I think its Cat 3.2 plus the control panel drivers. /reboot
then I disabled fast write in the smartgart control panel
all is well since then, I play lots of games online and off
and I havent had any problems. its been 3 weeks now since I build this system and all is good. I also ran the bench mark, did see a diffrence with the fast write turned off, but not a Substantial diffrence.

My final thoughs on the GNB-MAX 6565

tech support sucks, no replies to my questions regarding the fsb reported wrong, plus the high voltage nearly frying my cpu.
plus why is the latest bios v2.1 when my motherboard is v2.2 or is this just how long msi take to update the website, like the live update thing how up to date is that i mean whats the point of having it if its months out of date, i might aswell search myself for updated drivers.
the bluetooth bracket is the biggest misleading so called "feature" of the board, it don't give you bluetooth full stop you still have to buy a damn bluetooth dongle or card at extra cost to have bluetooth capability that plugs into any usb slot you don't have to have a special bracket, i won't be actually taking any action but in my opinion that claim is very misleading and i think msi could be sued for false advertising.
oh btw my mobo is working 100% now i love it apart from.
1. msi support sucks.
2. misleading bluetooth capability.
3. very slow and totally useless msi update program.
4. high powered fans blow the fan headers on the board.
5. flakey bios problems.
lets hope msi's support staff read the forum (maybe they) and try to sort out there problems with there products that we pay good money for

Hardware has gotten to a point that there is typically less than 1% difference between competing manufacturers per a particular chipset. That being the case, consumers are looking for "value added" aspects to make their decisions. With MSI, there is little in the way to that. Support for this board is abysmal. Fussy Logic, PCAlert 4, and even Promise drivers are buggy at best. The so called bluetooth option is in reality nothing without purchasing the dongle. Yes, it's mentioned somewhere in the fine print. But in larger print, it is obvious that MSI intended for the buyer to believe that he was getting an operational bluetooth option. In addition, you can't simply gloss over the fact that the board, with the CORRECT settings in bios, VOIDS INTELS WARRANTY. In case you haven't checked lately, P4 3.06s sell for over $600. That's one hell of a mistake, especially since MSI doesn't seem to be rushing to correct it. With all of the downloads, patches, research, tweaking, etc..etc..etc... , I figure I got paid about $2 per hour to build this thing.

GNB MAX(6565) NO POST

My MOBO worked fine for 2 months.
Now it's dead.
D-Bracket have lead 1-4 red.
Manual says:
"Processor Initialization
-This will show information regarding the processor
(like brand name,system bus,etc...)"
Anyone knows what it means?

Hi
I tried all slots and one ram at a time, but still get beep sound. So I just ordered crucial memory 2x 512MB DDR PC2700 • CL=2.5 • Unbuffered • Non-parity • 6ns • 2.5V • 64Meg x 64. I hope their high quility and reliable RAMs will solve this problem.
My VGA card is eVGA GF4 Ti4200 8X 128MB DDR.
I will post the result of crucial's ram.
Thank you for your help.

GNB Max temps and worries

Okies, I have a question / problem... maybe?
My MB, after being turned off for 30 minutes, on bootup, going DIRECTLY into the Bios, shows, under PC Health, a temp of 51C and climbs to 57..varying to..58.
Now I have the 3.06 GHZ Intel chip.
(No, I really don't care about anyone else's temp if they are overclocking or using something like a 2.4)
No overclocking anything.
Bios 2.2 and I did as Asaaf suggested and changed the thingys to 134 and 1.525.
I have an Alpha PAL8942 - which is supposed to be a decent heatsink on the P4.
IS THIS NORMAL / USUAL or not? If not, then should I take the sink off and re-apply the Artic Silver and try for "better"?
Oh, and MB temp is at 41C. - But I didn't mess with tha because the fan came on the MB attached.
Thank you in advance for your response.

Thanks ASSAF for the reply. If 1.42-1.44 is ok I'll
just leave it alone for now....untill CPU and MB ard

Need a few sugestions here.
I,ve surched the web and have seen no real solution.
ANY sugestions??
Thanks
Jutias

Well...Its morning to me...work 3rd shift.
Anyway. I put the Antec550 in because I thought maybe the BFG FX5600
wasn't getting enough juice. My old power supply only had two molex
line and the antec has 3. So I could use one molex line just for the video card.
Well that was a no go.
Now I 'm just leaving my puter on all the time.
I'm thinking either I have a bad install of the video drivers, or
the video card has bad memory.
No problems before installing the BFG5600.
Was just hoping someone could give me a clue on the "agp440.sys" Error.
Called BFG and they told me that the GranetBay (GNB Max) boards
have issues with the new "FX" video cards.
Thanks

MSI 6565 GNB Max SATA problem

Hi I have just picked up a 6565 Gnb Max board, P4 2.4 ,533FSB MAxtor 120 Gb SATA HDD, Asus FX5200 Card, 1 gig Twinmos 266 DDR,
I cannot get the mobo to recognise the SATA HDD, there is nothing in the bios where I can turn on the SATA controller
(Integrated Peripherals) can anybody help?

I'm having the same problems.
GNB-Max board, Seagate 120GB SATA and Seagate 60GB PATA w/ SATA adaptor.
Regardless of how I connect the drive(s) to the Promise controller, they are not recognised. I've tried the 120GB on it's own on both SATA connectors, the 60GB on it's own and paired on the SATA connectors, and the 60GB on it's own on the PATA (IDE3) connector. At no point in time does the Promise controller dialogue even display during boot, so I can not configure the drive(s). I've tried the 60GB as master, slave and cable select in all scenarios.
The BIOS shows SATA enabled, and I've upgraded to the latest (2.30) BIOS, as well as trying older (2.0 & 2.1) BIOS revisions. All show the same symptoms.
Can anyone shed any light on how you get the Promise controller dialogue to show, or how to overcome the problem? I'd really like to get the 120GB drive working as my boot drive so I can reuse the current PATA drives elsewhere.

RESOLUTION: GNB MAX and Radeon 9700 Crashes

I had various lock-ups, crashes and "Windows detected and recovered from a device failure" error messages with my GNB MAX motherboard and Radeon 9700 and they are now fixed.
I was able to receive a beta version of an upcoming set of drivers from ATI and they did the trick!!
Just wanted to give you all some hope.
Hang in there!

Oops, I spoke too soon. I think FastWrites is on (I remember turning it off before on previous drivers and noticing a big slow down that is not present now) but there isn't a SmartGart tab appearing in my ATI control panel any more. I checked Advanced - Options - Details and yes, 8X is on.
How can I verify that FastWrites is on without the SmartGart tab?

MSI GNB Max (MS-6565): insufficient voltage

I have just installed my new GNB Max, and got XP Pro up and running. Upon installing PC Alert 4, I recieved a warning that the +3.3V was actually sub 3V(2.9+V). What effect will this have? And what kind of Variance should I tolerate?
Many thanks.

My GNB Max + Antec true power 430 read 3.33.
Sounds like a power supply not handling the load.
Acceptable tolerance in the PC industry is +-5% (3.135 is therfor the lower limit)

GNB Max 2 And USB2.0 Support.. dont have them

Hi there, im having a problem with my USB 2.0 support witrh my GNB Max 2 Motherboard.. I have a pen drive but when i connect it to the PC it says i have connected a high speed drive in a NON high speed usb port. SO i was looking over the internet and noticed that i have no high speed USB . I have seen in the Device Manager -> USB Controllers and theres nothing that says ENHACED.
I hope you can help me to resolve this so i can get HIGH USB on my PC
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
With XP, you have to download the USB 2.0 update from Microsoft........ (Must be a MS XP driver, that know else is allowed to have for download......)
You will have to download from MicroSoft......

GNB Max and firewire

When I plug a firewire device into the GNB Max, nothing happens. The firwire controller shows up in the device manager and doesn't have any conflicts, also I double checked to make sure that firewire is enabled in the bios. I followed the instructions for connecting the firewire bracket to the mainboard.

It is a Digital VHS Recorder. With my old mobo, I had a pci firewire card, and all I had to do was plug it in, then I could choose the drivers.
