all the oc clock  work on my older motherboar asus maximus formula se the clock work fine 3.8ghz stable but why this msi motherboad can handle the clocks
sorry my English are very poor  ... help me if you understand me plees

Hello!brother,May i ask you a question?
Your CPU q9550(E0),Did it work when you first installed it on msi p45 diamond(BIOS v1.0)?
Did you flashed the Motherboard at first?
I found something here:http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-MSI/P45_Diamond_(MS-7516).html,Does Q9550(E0) needs flash the BIOS to v1.5?
MY ENGLISH IS BAD!

  • NEED BIOS MSI P45 DIAMOND

    Hi!
    I have a problem - can`t overclock my p45 diamond over 450 mhz at fsb with bios 1.67.
    I need perfomance bios version. Where i can download it?

    There are no up-to-date Performance BIOS Versions available for your mainboard.  If Performance BIOS Versions ever existed, they were released in the early BIOS Development Phase for testing purposes.  To be honest, I have not come across any Performance BIOS for your board yet and it is also highly questionable if such a BIOS would help you in any way (if it existed).  Whatever problem there is (or not is) does not necessarely have much to do with the BIOS you use.
    If you need help and advice on overclocking, please open your own topic in the OC Section of this forum, provide FULL system specifications (read the >>Posting Guide<< first) and post a list of your current Cell Menu settings for comparison.

    -do you have some more pictures? 
    -my eliminator is still installed on my current system(squeals like a pig all day long tho) so I haven't had a chance to really examine it closely,Do they come apart fairly easy and will I need any rare screwdrivers or tools? (eg.like Nintendo Wiis tri-wing screws)
    I'm thinkin of getting another eliminator (my friend has 1 w/ a broken pump he might sell me real cheap) and plumbing them both together than adding a rad and reservoir with a more powerful pump.

  • P45 Diamond overclocking thread

    Okay, I wanted to try a different MB and got what I asked for when I purchased the MSI P45 Diamond.  I am lost with some of the settings in the Cell Menu but becoming more familiar from research and trial & error. 
    If you have a P45 Diamond please list your settings in the following format with any additional comments and maybe we can get some stable OC's and reach P45 Diamond's potential that the reviews say is there, with a bit of patience and hopefully some good bios updates .
    If you are experienced with overclocking and have some suggestions with some settings, feel free to list'em and I will give'm a go.

  • Which 775 cpu do I need to update P45 Diamond?

    I understand as it comes out of the box the P45 Diamond does not support an Intel 775 Q9550.
     Since I have no other Intel bits about, and no real history with this family of chips, how old of a Pentium do I need to get this into bios so I can update it to accept the Core 2 Quad?
    Thanks.

    That is not entirely correct.  The Q9550 (C1) is supported since BIOS v1.0, the Q9550 (E0) is supported since BIOS v1.3.  The BIOS Version that is onboard when you get it, depends on the time the board left the factory.
    You can find the CPU Support list here:
    http://global.msi.eu/index.php?func=prodcpu2&prod_no=1478&maincat_no=1#menu
    Older Pentium (4/D) Processors are not supported at all.

  • Overclocking issue..PLEASE help!!!!

    I am trying to overclock my 3800+ x2 from 2.0 to 2.5GHz. I have the HT multiplier set to 3x, FSB setting to 250 (2.5GHz), however, I am having trouble with the voltages. When I view my voltage of the CPU in CPU Z it keeps jumping around. The default CPU voltage on the CPU in BIOS is 1.4, and I can increase it twice to reach about 1.490 or so, but any higher and it will go into the red settings where it says system could become very unstable. My voltage is jumping from anywhere from 1.400 to 1.448. Everything is running very stable, especially in games, but the voltage is jumping around and never staying at one voltage. Even when I go back to default settings in BIOS, my voltage is STILL jumping around a little bit. I have not downloaded or installed any updates for the BIOS. To increase the voltage I am choosing the option that says CPU Voltage [ OVER VID 3.3%, 5.0%, 8.3%, etc). What should I do?

    Quote from: syar2003 on 22-October-06, 00:01:05
    Just for information -The jumping vcore only happens on my MSI boards . On my DFI SLI-DR it's 1.456 all the time .
    Tells me MSI is not that good on making the voltage regulator modules on their mobo's ...
    this is exactly what i  have said before, when i saw it, at the 1st time was thinking like you that MSI voltage regulator isn't good or somethink, but change my mine fast.
    MSI is not only which have vary voltage. think exception is DFI with constant voltage. all other manufacturer boards(Asus,Gigabyte,BIOSTAR,Abit,Soltek,ECS) which i have tested has vary voltage like MSI. think its their nature way to go, or like Tiresmoke said wrong info provided by their sensors.

  • P45 Diamond issue with USB at boot.

    Hi everyone.
    It's Felipe from Chile again.  I wait for everyone of you are doing fine.  Maybe some of you would remember me about my last issue with my last motherboard https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=121186.0.  The good thing is that problem is completely solved and the store changed my motherboard for an MSI P45 Diamond paying the difference in money.
    I would be experience some little problems with this motherboard and I really would like you to help me.
    I have an ASDL Modem USB Zyxel 630-C1, which I connect through Internet.  My problem is, every time Windows starts up, I have to manually unplugged it and plug it again, for the O.S. to detect it. Either way, the System would not let me to connect to Internet.
    I though the problem was because of the driver and Windows Vista, but I did a fresh copy of Windows XP Pro and I experience same problems. I asked my ISP for the last driver and he told me where to download them, but didn't fix the problem.
    I think, it could be a problem of USB Leggacy Support but I tried to change it disabled-to-enabled and biceversa but I couldn-t make it work.
    When my last motherboard MSI X48C I didn-t experienced this problem, but with this P45 Diamond the problem is present.
    What I need is, the system detect my USB modem with no need to unplug it and plug it every time I boot on Windows.
    Would you some of you, maybe recommend me something, please
    I wait for your reply.
    And thanks again.

    What BIOS is onboard?
    My actual BIOS, is I said in the second post, v1.1 06162008. (I've never flashed and it comes with this version)
    Quote
    Do you use chipset drivers from Intel site?
    I'm not quite sure about this question.  The only thing I installed are:
    Intel INF Drivers for P3x/P4x/G3x/G4x Chipsets (from http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1478)
    Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio (From the CD included)
    (I also installed Realtek PCI-E Ethernet Drivers from the same MSI web page, but I'm not using them, so I disabled both from BIOS.)
    About the chipset driver from Intel site, I entered http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=816 then I selected Windows Vista* Ultimate, 32 bit version, pressed the Go button, from the Download Center I access Chipset, but there I'm not sure what should I select, can you tell me what shoud I download from there, or maybe that site is not he adequate.
    Thanks again and I wait for your repply.

    Secondly, you are setting a really high voltage for a stock DDR3 1333Mhz Ram..that surely can cause error and shorten its life too
    Third, don't ecpect all CPU to be able to be OC'ed to any number that we wish..when OC'ing to 4 GHz,heat will be an issue..default CPU safe temperature in BIOS will be set to 65 degree celcius, so if your CPU goes beyond this mark, system will automatically terminate.
    What was the temperature during prime95 test ? And are you using a stock cooler ?

  • P45 diamond - corsair memory issues

    I have the p45 diamond board . i just upgraded to that board as well as the q9550 intel quad chip. I am running one of the recommended ram kits ( corsair 2x2gig tw3x4g16009hx )
    My vista 64bit install went fine but i noticed by default my ram was running at 1067 instead of 1333 at post screen. I flashed the bios to v1.4 and adjusted the timings and voltage in my bios to 9-9-9-24 1.8v. with the fsb/dram ratio @ 1:2.00 . the ram clocked at 1333 in my post screen. however. i started getting blue screens (win32k.sys) as well i can't even launch cod4, it says there was an error and closes. I have re-installed cod4 and it still doesn't work. I went back to the default memory speed and still doesn't work. After flashing my bios i get these errors. I called corsair and explained to them what was going on and they said that that particular ram has known issues. I advised that they're memory configurator lists that as compatible, they thought it had already been removed from being suggested. They set me up with an RMA for ( 2X2gig twin3x4096-1600c7dhx) and said that would fix the problem. I haven't received the ram yet but we will see.
    Is anyone else running this ram that i am RMA'ing up to? Its stupid that a high end board like this has so many problems with ram.

    That's true, but pay attention to that "users looking for the best overclocking results".
    Also, he didn't mention the most important thing (the reason is obvious  ):
    all those modules are using overclocked & overvolted DDR3-1333 chips!
    As general rule, an overclocked component doesn't run properly on ANY configuration in any condition.
    Not to mention the extra heat, shorter lifetime and other troubles.
    Before buying DDR3 modules, check out their SPD settings (skip OCZ because most of their settings are messed up):
    7-7-7-20 at 1.5V means DDR3-1066
    9-9-9-24 at 1.5V means DDR3-1333
    Something more: 99% of the DDR3-1600 and DDR3-1800 on the market are in fact overvolted DDR3-1333.
    The fastest DDR3 chips on the market are DDR3-1600, but they're a "rara avis" in DDR3 modules (also they're very expensive).
    They have been designed to work with timings of 11-11-11-30(34) at 1.5V.
    They can be overvolted to 1.8-1.9V and they can reach 2000-2200MHz.
    For example, Buffalo has a DDR3 module using ELPIDA chips (11-11-11-34) able to reach 2400MHz at 2.1V.
    For future take care and don't buy "nice heatspreaders" 
    cheers

  • Issue with F4 help!!!!!! need to resolve it asap.

    Hello Guru's,
    I am modifying the Web Dynpro for ABAP application for employee search in HR Administrator.
    I am able to change the infoset and make use of the one I created using the enhancement framework.
    I included couple of standard fields Provided by SAP into the selection fields of the infoset.
    And now I have issue with F4 help associated with the fields.
    The problem is when you do a F4 on the selection fields the selection option which comes is having couple of columns with the key field highlighted in blue and when selecting a record or row the value selected is EN instead I would like to have the Org unit number to be selected.
    to be more clear:
    in the popup of f4 assume the columns are
    Langu Org. unit Org. Unit text.
    as of now Langu is the key field(highlighted in blue) and when selecting a row the value selected is Langu key instead I want to have Org. Unit to be selected.
    Please help me out in resolving this.
    Thanks in advacne for your time.
    Regards,
    Pramod

    Hi Pramod,
    I don't know how it is done in infoset. But if you have a context node and attribute for the field which is displayed in the view, create a custom dictionary search help for the field you want. Design the search help as per your requirements (what fields to be displayed etc..).
    In the context attribute of that field property, select 'Dictionary search help' in the Input help mode. Enter the name of your custom search help here.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • MSI P45 DIAMOND issues

    Hello, I have a intel X3350 xeon socket775 and I want to install it in a P45 DIAMOND (In Germany many dealers will ensure compatibility with the MSI P45 mb with my X3350). I would like to know how to do air cooling of the NB because I do not have a watercooling.
    Thank
    Mauro

    It is very simple. Get a chassis that has a side airflow opening and fix a moderate speed fan of 8 to 12cm range with airflow of about 20cfm will do the job well. Make sure you have another exhaust fan at the rear of the chassis of equal specs to pull the warm air out of the system.

  • P45 diamond mobo does not power up

    Hello,
          I recently purchased a P45 diamond mobo from Newegg, and the mobo didn't work when I received it. The only thing it would do was display a red light at LED 1, which according to the book means it's on standby? I talked to Newegg and they said they would RMA it. Today I just received the replacement and the exact same issue exist. The probability of two boards having the exact same problem makes me suspicious.
          I currently have the mobo sitting on the box it came with and the only thing connected are the two power cables; 8 pin and the 24 pin. When I turn it on, I only get a red light at LED 1. It doesnt matter what I have installed, I get the same red light. My real question is, what does this red light indicate other than standby? Am I doing something wrong? I have assembled computers since 1989, and I am out of ideas here.
         I used the Cmos jumper- correctly. I also removed the power cable and pressed the Cmos button. 
    I have one last question. If no CPU is present, will the LED status indicators work or does the mobo need a functioning CPU to display LED light beyond the single red light that I am getting?

    Install the processor + heatsink, a video card and one stick of RAM, then clear CMOS with main A/C power cable removed from PSU.
    Try to start the system by shorting the two pins for the power-on button (JFP1 pin header) with a screwdriver.  If nothing changes, please try another PSU.
    I purchased a new PSU to try and isolate the problem during the last motherboard. I also tested the other components on another mobo and they worked. I did what you said also and shorted the power-on header and nothing happens. I dont know what the probability of receiving two boards with the same exact problem but it makes me wonder. Newegg is generally a good company, maybe it's just my bad luck.
    I just built a system for a friend of mine and he uses the same board and loves it. Hopefully, I can RMA it from MSI and get better results.
    Thanks Jack for the help.

  • Any P45 Diamond overclockers out there?

    Hello all, first post on this forum for me here.
    Was wondering if there are any P45 Diamond users/overclockers around that have experience in using GTL values.
    Thing is, im overclocking atm stable at 3.8 ghz with a q9450. (8x475)
    I have tried many settings regarding the GTL. None really helped. The only settings that helped was upping de VTT to 1.30, and the vcore to 1.36.
    Just that i dont like the fact that i have to push the volts that high. Reading around the web showed that GTL can let me use lower voltages.
    Also i have tried to reach 4 GHz, wich i could run but with higher voltages only.
    Dont worry about my cooling btw, i got a bigwater set from thermaltake, that also cools the NB.
    Something else thats prolly kinda interesting to say, the 1.1 BIOS sucks when it comes to my system. I cant get anything stable above 3.2 GHz for some reason. I reverted back to 1.0 and let me go up to 3.8 again.
    There is another problem with my DDR3 memory it seems, when it goes above 1450~ MHz respectively, then the system does not post at all. But running it on 1266 gives me no memory issues. (FSB:DRAM 3:4).
    I'll make a post about this issue later in another section of the forum.
    So to get back to the origin of this post.
    Is there anybody out there that can help me with the GTL values?
    Needless to say its about a 45nm quad cpu.
    I'll list my specs :
    MSI P45 Diamond
    Q9450 @ 3.8 GHz, 8x 475 FSB, 1.36 vcore (1.34 under load), 1.30 vtt.

  • MSI P45 Diamond : Question about voltages and straps.

    Hi,
    Before I start a post with my overclocking problems I want to learn more about the board and have a few questions:
    1. OC Jumpers: What do they exactly do, do the increase any voltages, do the change the nb strap or do they only increase the fsb. If they do not change the strap, when/where does the board change it 266/333/400?
    2. What is the maximum safe voltages for the mch,ich,fsb?
    3. New BIOS: Does anyone know when can we expect one or where can I download a beta that is newer than 1.4.
    Ok, my problem is that I can overclock past 390. I can get 400 but it is not stable in windows. I first want tolearn how the board works before I discuss my oc problem.
    PC Specs:
    MSI P45 Diamond (v1.4 Bios)
    Intel Q9300 (ran 2000fsb on a xfx 780i)
    4x1gb Transcend aXeram DDR3-1800+
    Zalman 850W power supply
    XFX GTX 260 XXX
    Xfi Titanium
    Thanks

    The jumpers change the strap & the FSB Frequency:
    When you have an FSB-266 MHz processor and put the jumpers into the 333 MHz position, the FSB Clock Speed will be forced to 333 MHz and the BIOS treats the CPU as though it is an FSB-333-MHz Processor, that means even after a CMOS Clear, the FSB Clock Speed will be 333 MHz and FSB/Memory Ratio will be adjusted automatically based on that strap and the SPD Tables of your memory modules.

    2. What is the maximum safe voltages for the mch,ich,fsb?
    The Intel Datasheet for the P45 Chipset should give you a basic overview on voltage ranges.  However, you may need to exceed these ranges, in some cases, depending on your overclock to keep the system stable.  You will find nobody, that will seriously be willing to tell you the "maximum safe voltage" as every voltage increase is potentially dangerous to your the components.  Welcome to overclocking.

    The latest BETA I know about so far is v1.5b1.
