Help on Optimal settings for my K7N2-L

I just installed this mobo without any hitches. I left everything at default on the board and in the bios (except bios changes recommended by the bios guide above).
What I'm unsure of is if I have the best settings within the bios for my CPU and memory to get the most out of both.
If I left any info out of my sig, let me know and TIA for any help! :D

er...that's Dual Channel Mode not Dual DDR Mode...it doesn't double the memory but raises the Memory Bus Bandwidth when in Dual Channel Mode...common misnomer in terms there...
Downfall you'll have to experiment with your settings in order to find the sweet spot for your rig. In most instances no two are alike as parametric differences happen with electronic parts and cause my system not to operate exactly like yours if we were both to have the same exact parts. Could be parametric differences from buying parts from two different batches of parts (or lots as they're commonly called in the business).
So play with your settings a bit and if you run into a no post situation you can use J10 and J11 to get it to post again (read the manual). Be careful that you don't push your limits too far tho as you'll end up with a really nice keychain processor heheheheh

  • New stream, low upload rate... Optimal Settings for streaming games?

    I've been fiddling around with FMLE for the past few days/weeks and trying to find the best quality to stream quality games such as Bad Comapny 2, Starcraft 2, Mass Effect 2, etc
    I am able to play games at max settings, but when I do the stream will lag so I choose to make the settings low enough so I can stream.
    The only probably right now is they seem quite blurry/pixelated - which is probably due to my upload rate of 0.8mbps from SpeedTest.net1
    My specs are:
    Resolution of 1680x1050 (Most of my games like Bad Company 2 are played at 1280x720 windowed mode)
    i5-2500K
    GTX 560 Ti
    12GB Ram
    1TB Hard Disk Space
    Windows 7 64bit
    Upload rate of 0.8mbps (and 5.0mbps download incase it is needed)
    http://www.justin.tv/mrshotzzzz/videos - Bad Company 2 at the moment... There seems to be a LOT of blurryness, but it seems quite smooth.
    http://www.twitch.tv/mrshotzzzz/b/293073526?id=293073526&channel=mrshotzzzz - This is my latest... (skip to 1:25 where I configure it to be good)
    When I fullscreen it, around the edges mainly, I see it is pixleted.
    I use 1280x720 input, and 640x360 output with 800kbps. Is it possible to make it better?
    Would an output of 640x360 with a bitrate of 650kbps be better?
    Would an output of 854x480 be better?
    Could changing my input size to 1920x1080 make my quality better?
    tl;dr What is the optimal settings for a good specced computer, but with a low upload rate (0.8mbps)?

    Hi,
    In iChat 3 or iChat 4 setting System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming to 1.5Mbps is quite important.
    In Tiger (10.4.x) the Automatic Setting here is read as Zero by iChat and can cause issues even when the Speed is high enough.
    In Leopard for iChat 4 this Automatic setting is read as 384k by iChat (although this is the Minimum for a 4 way Video chat it may still cap your Internet Speed).
    If you have to change this iChat will need a restart if open.
    The real controlling factor is the Upload speed the Internet Connection speed has.
    There is one other place to help with the Bandwidth/Internet Connection speed.
    This is in iChat menu > Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth Limit drop down.
    This can be changed during A/V chat and changes to the Bit rate iChat is using is shown in the Connection Doctor (Video Menu).
    This is best used when Really Fast Buddies (Processors and Internet Speeds) can tend to "Over-run" lesser speeded Buddies. It can also help if your ISP manages the Bandwidth/Internet Connection speed making it run slower or faster at different times of the day (Also look at Fair Usage Policies).
    There is no independent way to reduce the Frame rate that would have a direct effect on this.
    There are other apps that do use less demanding picture quality that in turn effects the Frame rate which can effect the Bandwidth needed/Used
    See this link http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/page5.html#_other
    Scroll to numbers 5 through 8 for Apps, 9 through 12 for Web Browser options.
    13 is a PC app.
    14 & 15 works in Video only to MSN Buddies.
    The list does not have a reference to the Yahoo Beta 3 for Mac

  • Optimal Settings for FCP6 on MacBook Pro?

    Up until a week ago, I've worked mostly on a Mac Pro with Final Cut Studio 2. I've been fortunate enough to get a MacBook Pro (2.6Ghz) also outfitted with FCS2 and I'm wondering if there is such a thing as "optimal settings" for running FCS2 on the portable notebook.
    I'm referring to such things as memory and cache settings and Playback control, etc. I would like the MBP to run FCS as efficiently as possible. I know I won't get the same power-crunching ability as the Mac Pro but does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks for any help.

    We have a 2.4Ghz MBP with the 256 MB video card.
    We have 4 GBs of RAM, which you should consider.
    However, without indicating what codec and cam you will be using, there isn't much more to say.
    If you are working with a DV or HDV camcorder, for example, use an ExpressCard 34 FW or eSATA card and an external HDD for media.
    That creates independent FW buses if you go that route or a FW bus and a eSATA HDD connection.

  • Help with print settings for Panoramas

    Hi,
    I use an Epson 2880 and I am trying to figure out the print settings for doing an 11 x 34in panorama print on 13" roll paper from Aperture 3.0.3. I finally got it to do one print properly, but the setup was totally counter intuitive and I can't reproduce it. I tried using "Custom" Paper size and setting it to 13" x 36", then using the landscape mode and setting the Image Size to 11 x 34". Any way I did this ended up with the image printing the wrong way on the paper. So I went back and picked "Roll" paper. This leaves only one field to fill in, which I presume is the paper width (it really didn't make this obvious in the dialogue.). Then I set the mode to Portrait, and made sure that the settings for the Image size were 11 x 34. It then printed fine. But when I went back to print another file, even though I had saved the settings, now I am presented with only one box for specifying the Image Size and there is no way to get it right again. HELP! The settings for this kind of print in Photoshop is also counterintuitive, but when you get it set right, and you know the settings, no problem reproducing it. I think maybe there is a bug in AP3 with regard to this sort of setup.

  • Help with FMLE Settings for Sports Broadcast

    Hello,
    I am in need of some help tweaking my settings in FMLE.  I put on various sports broadcasts, but one of my clients has limited bandwidth (avg ~2.5-3mbps upload).
    I'd like to keep the output pixel size at 640x360 so that it takes up our entire player and doesn't letter box it, but with the larger video size I sometimes run in to either buffering,or pixelated video depending on how the bandwidth is that particular day.   I'd like to stream between 800k-1000k.
    I am using VP6 codec and using an Osprey Card as my capture device.
    Some of my questions are:
    1) Should I capture my video bigger than 640x360 and have FMLE shrink it, or capture it at the same size I want to output it at?
    2) In the Format advanced encoder settings, What should I set as my keyframe, quality, and datarate window.  Ideally I would like to use keyframes every 1-2 seconds because I work with fast-paced video, but I know that sends a lot of extra data.  Same with Datarate Window.  Can someone help explain the significance of this one.
    3)Under the output panel, I am not currently using the auto adjust function.  Should I enable this when my bandwidth takes a hit?  If so, which is preferable, dropping frames or degrading quality? Any explanation wuold be very helpful.
    4)Should I deinterlace my video?  We have a 3-camera shoot using Canon XL2's and a DataVideo Switcher.  Everything is analog SD.
    I am able to drop by bitrate down to 600K and the stream does not buffer, but it starts to get pixelated.  I would think that 3mbps upload bandwidth is enough to stream at 800k.   Any help adjusting my settings to shapen the imagine would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    1) Should I capture my video bigger than 640x360 and have FMLE shrink it, or capture it at the same size I want to output it at?
    --> Always capture at the same size, unless the device/card doesn't support that size.
    2) In the Format advanced encoder settings, What should I set as my keyframe, quality, and datarate window.  Ideally I would like to use keyframes every 1-2 seconds because I work with fast-paced video, but I know that sends a lot of extra data.  Same with Datarate Window.  Can someone help explain the significance of this one.
    --> Data rate window is useful for unexpected source data that might not encode well within the specified bit-rates. For example, if you set data rate window to "tiny" and a complex frame (source data) arrives, then encoder will not allocate some extra bits to encode that frame in good quality. But if you set the window to huge, then that complex frame will be encoded in good quality by allocating more bits to it. So, basically, the "delta" around the specified bit-rate increases on moving from "tiny" to "huge" data rate window. Your output bit-rate will vary more in case of "huge" setting.
    3)Under the output panel, I am not currently using the auto adjust function.  Should I enable this when my bandwidth takes a hit?  If so, which is preferable, dropping frames or degrading quality? Any explanation wuold be very helpful.
    --> I can explain the difference between the 2 options and you can experiment with both and stick to one, which gives a better user experience under your bandwidth conditions.
    a. Once the auto-adjust feature triggers, Drop frames option will intelligently drop some frames. As a result of this, you might observe video stalling depending upon the severity of the bandwidth conditions.
    b. Once the auto-adjust feature triggers, Degrade quality option with a min. video bit-rate value of say 500 kbps will try to encode all the frames within this 500 kbps limit. As you are reducing the bit-rate from the original value of say 800 kbps, the quality is bound to degrade. If you check the "preserve per frame quality" option then the encoder will encode >=50% of the frames within the specified bit-rate of 500 kbps. As the no. of frames are less the per frame quality will be better than the previous case. There is a possiblity that even after degrading quality, the buffer is exceeding the given limit then the degrade quality option will automatically switch to the drop frames option.
    4)Should I deinterlace my video?  We have a 3-camera shoot using Canon XL2's and a DataVideo Switcher.  Everything is analog SD.
    --> Deinterlace option is only available for video sizes >= 640x480.
     

  • Optimal settings for encoding HDV 1080i footage to SD dvd

    I have footage recorded from an HDV camcorder and edited in FCP 1080i 60. It is fast moving sports footage shot with a high shutter speed the total running time is 40 min. I have encoded it to DVD by taking the HDV 16:9 FCP sequence dropping it to a 4by3 DV sequence to get the window box 4by3 aspect ratio and exporting this sequence as an mov. This mov was then encoded with compressor dvd 90 min best settings
    I was not able to find a quick way to do the aspect ratio change in Compressor 3. Please let me know optimal settings.
    The big problem however is how compressor has dealt with the high speed moving footage. Played from the DVD on a sd tv the motion is terrible. It looks like the interlacing is all off and the image doubled up. The slow mo footage used in the piece is fine.
    What are the optimal settings to smooth out the motion?

    this ones been discussed to death many times in the past John

  • Optimal Settings for Distance

    I'm sure this has been covered, but what are the idea settings for my Airport Extreme when it comes to distance?
    I can't move my router any closer to my bedroom than it already is, and the signal dies right at the foot of my bed. So all I need is about 8 more feet.
    Would 2.4 vs 5Ghz help? WPA2 vs WEP? Multicast rate? N vs n/b/g compatible? Interface robustness?
    Thanks in advance.

    As you can imagine, it's impossible to predict performance in advance without knowing volumes about the construction of your home, construction materials, carpet, furniture and a million other things. Even then, the prediction would probably be wrong.
    2.4 GHz signals travel better than 5 GHz signals, so try the 2.4 Ghz band. And, perhaps surprisingly, "g" signals travel and penetrate better than "n". So, for maximum distance and penetration, try 802.11 b/g or 802.11 g.
    It sounds like you really need a device like an AirPort Express to "extend" your wireless signal from the AirPort Extreme. Ideally, the Express would be located 1/2 to 2/3 of the distance between your AirPort Extreme and the area that you want to "extend".

  • Optimal settings for AP1242AG with roaming

    Hello everybody, I need some advice on the best settings for my AP1242AG wireless radios.  I am using 2.4Ghz and not 5.  They are not lightweight and therefore I do not have a WLC.  I have only hooked up the right (primary) antenna on them.  I have 6 radios in an outdoor deployment, they have line of sight and are only about 500 feet away from each other so signal should not be an issue.  I have already established communication between two of the units successfully as a test so I am mostly there.
    However, I need help with the role in radio settings.  3 of the radios are mounted throughout a jobsite on poles so they are my main AP's.  The other 3 radios are in motorhomes that move around inside of the yard from time to time.  Therefore, this is similar to a multipoint to multipoint bridge configuration. Each of the 3 main units on the poles have a connection back to the main LAN and I am simply trying to get the LAN connectivity into each of the three motorhomes (so I don't believe I need to use any of the repeater options and this is similar to a bridge).   I don't know the best role in radio selection for this configuration that will allow everything to work together the best.  I also need the 3 remote radios to roam from one pole to the next as needed for strongest signal.
    Also, if anybody has additional advice on other settings I may want to change given my setup to help optimize, I would appreciate it.  I am obviously new to these units.
    Can somebody please help with this?  Thanks in advance!

    APs on poles : station-role root
    APs on motorhomes : station-role workgroup-bridge
    The workgroup bridge role allows to act as client, provide connectivity to whatever is connected on the wired interface of the WGB and also to roam.
    500 feet is a lot for 1242 with omnidirectionnal antennas (I suppose this is what you have since you're roaming around). I hope you tested it :-)

  • Optimal settings for video extraction

    What are the optimal settings in final cut pro 6.0 in order to take a finished project from my computer and put it on an external drive for the purpose of transferring this file to a beta tape? Also what are the optimal settings in order to take this same project file and burn it to a DVD? I want to get the best quality video as possible as this video will be played on TV.

    What are your settings now? Who will be handling the output? They are the ones to ask the question on output format for layback to betasp. I'd say Uncompressed 8-bit or ProRes (standard def)... but this is dependent on the format you are working with now too.
    As for DVD...just export a QT movie (self contained, sequence settings...or REFERENCE, uncheck the self contained box) and use the DVD preset in Compressor, then send to DVD SP...or take the QT into DVD SP and have it do the encode.

  • Optimal Settings for Podcast Output

    I'm experienced with the editing and output rendering for DVD settings for Encore CS2 and .wmv for our on-demand video hosting server. We have a request for our medical education videos to output for podcast distribution.

  • Optimal settings for 9800 PRO

    Does anyone know the BEST settings for a 9800 Pro. I do not want to get a program to OC it. I just would rather change the settings than use a program. So if anyone knows what the BEST settings or know of a site that tells you the BEST settings for a 9800 Pro, I would appreciate it very much if you were to tell me.  Thanks.  

    try rage 3d tweak...it has an overclocker too, but you dont have to use it, and it practically gives you full control over the cards settings.

  • Optimal settings for h.264

    Does anyone have any recommended optimal setting for encoding DV footage to h.264 at full 720x480 resolution? I need setting that will provide quality with the smallest file size. Thanks.

    Does anyone have any recommended optimal setting for encoding DV footage to h.264 at full 720x480 resolution? I need setting that will provide quality with the smallest file size.You can try the "Movie to iPod" conversion export. This will produce a 640 x 480 (the "square" pixel representation of your 720 x 480 DV "rectangular" pixel movie) in the H.264 "LC" profile at roughly 12+ MBs per minute (i.e., roughly 1630 Kbps). If lower data rates are required and the movie does not need to be iPod compatible, you can use the H.264 "Main" profile in either the "Movie to H.264" or "Movie to MPEG-4" manual export options to limit the data rate to as low a level as you can tolerate in terms of playback "quality."

  • Optimal settings for export from 1080p camcorder - Canon HF100

    I just bought an HF100 camcorder. When I make projects with iMovie what are best export settings for 1080p projects? What about for 480p for a DVD. I tried to export 1080p video and it looks grainy. I'm not sure if this is the fault of the camera or iMovie?
    Also, when I play clips inside imovie the playback is choppy. Is there anyway to fix this?

    I'm using a HF10, and I don't think iMovie '08 properly detects that 1080p recordings from these camcorders are progressive scan, but rather treats then like 1080i clips. I find I get better results by recording in the default 1080i if there's sideways motion in the video. That doesn't really surprise me - according to the AVCHD consortium website, there's no such thing as 1080p in AVCHD (see http://www.avchd-info.org/format/index.html).
    DVDs are always interlaced anyway, so for best results you want to start with 1080i and not 1080p. I export at 960x540i, using the Quicktime export option selecting "High" quality mode. The default "Large" sharing option in iMovie uses a bitrate that I find too low for getting the best quality.
    When you export at 1080p, what is your bitrate set to? That makes a lot of difference.
    Finally, 1080p playback is very hard work for your computer. Try quitting other applications before playing back your video to get a smooth experience. Or export at 540p.

  • Optimal Settings for Converting Sony AVCHD .MTS Footage for DVD Delivery

    I am starting with footage from a Sony HDR-SR7 camcorder. Since iMovie is still kind of wonky with this, I am going to batch convert all my clips using the VeggieTools plug-in scripting for *Sony Vegas Pro* (under my Windows partition of my MacBook Pro). I can convert over each file into a new clip in a lot of different formats.
    My goal is to *bring the footage over to Mac and edit it in Final Cut Express.* Eventually, I will be mastering and delivering on DVD (most likely through iDVD). And I am looking for guidance.
    First, I have a lot of choices for the conversion format. But I am not sure what to use. I know that the original is upper field dominant and HD in size (16:9). I will eventually be going to standard DVD NTSC (with letterboxing top and bottom to fill up the format space of the 4:3 aspect ratio). And I assume that is lower field dominant.
    Do I need to find some setting that lets me convert the footage to double the 29.97 fps rate while interpolating the fields? Or do I not have to worry about this? I am worried that bringing the size of the footage down will create some weird artifacts if this isn't taken care of first.
    I guess the main question is, since I am looking to pretty much just edit these clips together and won't be doing much in the way of special effects, what's the best way or format to choose to *turn the HD footage into high quality SD footage* that I can quickly trim and string together *in Final Cut Express*...
    Not sure if I gave enough info. I will be checking often in anyone wishes to try and tackle this one and needs more details...
    And thanks for listening!!

    OK my fault for not being clear on an extremely important point: I don't need anamorphic widescreen. Sorry to waste your brainpower on my lack of clarity. Mea culpa.
    I intend to show this only on a standard definition TV from a standard definition DVD player. The "letterboxing" I spoke of is intentional on my part inside the standard def 4:3 frame. I will just let there be black bars at the top and the bottom.
    So I don't need full super high resolution during this transfer (IF iMovie hadn't stopped recognizing my Sony AVCHD MTS camera after the first batch of video I collected, this wouldn't even be an issue. Been spending days on the forums trying all the solutions for the rest of my footage...).
    But now that I have a workaround, I am just mostly confused about what to do about the field order (and thus, the frame rate) and the resizing (for convenience in size and playback speed). The original is upper first, and I am pretty sure that the QuickTime Movie I eventually make for iDVD should be lower field first (haven't tried tackling the can of worms of ideal MOV settings for an iDVD standard def disc yet).

Maybe you are looking for
