P7N Diamond + Q9550 + CORSAIR TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF overclock

Hi,
I have a MSI P7N Diamond and i have installed one pairs of the above mentioned memory TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF Module. The thing is that i have yet to overclock but i cannot seem to get the modules to work at 5-5-5-12 at 2.1 volts.
The memory settings of the bios are:
SLI-READY memory= Expert
Memory voltage: 2,1v
and inside that i have set the following manually:
CAS 5
TRCD 5
TRP 5
TRAS 15
CR 2T
the pc will freeze on boot up, game load up or sometimes in game. Suggestions?
thank you

P7n Diamond, Corsair TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF, speed problems

I have been having various problems with both the RAID and memory speeds in this system. The RAID problems (DEGRADED RAID 5) come and go but my current primary issue is that the system will not run with the memory set at its rated settings:
1066 MHz
5-5-5-15
2.1v
The best I can get it to clock up to is 1000 MHz at which the system will run for about 5 to 10 minutes before locking up. I ran memtest for 2 full cycles at this frequency and no problems were detected (i think it was run at 1000 MHz, it's been a while sorry).
The system is currently running stable at 800 MHz (the speed it sets the memory to on auto). It will also run stable at various points higher up to the 1000 as I mentioned above but since I have never heard of someone running their system anywhere between 800 and 1066 (unless they were overclocking) I figgured it would be most healthy for my system to run at the 800 and no higher until we can get this figured out.
I have seen that this board sometimes sets the wrong automatic voltage on some people's 45nm processors. My x3350 is a 45nm proc but i'm not sure what its voltage is supposed to be, i just left it on automatic... maybe this has something to do with the problem?

Hey, thanks guys. Wow it's amazing that nobody had said anything about the 1066 memory to me before (like when i was building the system and throwing together a parts list).
The only problem they could find with my config on eggexpert.com was the motherboard... they said it had problems with the raid but didn't quote or point to any sources so i just did a google search and when i couldn't find anything to back up their problem statement i just blew it off. Guess it's the last time i'll ever make that mistake.
Either way though, MSI says it should work fine. So if it doesn't, shouldn't there be something that could be done? You would also think that I could find someone out there who's WAY smarter than me who has had this same raid problem and figured it out and gotten it to work. I'm sure there's plenty of guys out there who are using this board with a raid 5 as well, so maybe i'm just doing something wrong? I have always had good results with MSI and I really don't think it should have to come down to finding another mobo manufacturer.
Oh, and for anyone who might suggest rma, it's too late for that. Believe me, i would if i could.

MOVED: P7N Diamond Overclocking Assistance Please

Bomberh,
My bad...was thinking of the P6N Diamond..the P7N Diamond does NOT have the VTT option in Cell Menu. Just for info, I had .500 volts on my e6750 on stock air cooling and it posted 3600mhz and the CPU temp in bios never exceeded 32 deg C. So, what you have to do is raise the voltage to the CPU to give it a little "oomphh" to get into post and the OS. Your Arctic cooler should be able to handle it..try 1333, increase voltage in cell menu to .375 and see what happens? Up to .500 volts with a good air cooler w/adequate heat paste should be quite safe. You should always stop in bios to check the Hardware Monitor and record what the CPU and System temps are when O/Cing...if you see a steadily increasing temperature you will have plenty of time to pull the plug..lol. Keep us posted. Like Aaron said..it's all about trial and error.

MOVED: P7N Diamond - Memory Problem ???

https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=118059.0

Absolutely nothing helps. NOTHING. I have tried every possible thing you could expect normal user to try. This mainboard is crap. I got this to almost work with some (very expensive) Kingston memory sticks which were mentioned somewhere with this board, it only crashes few times a day now! Every component is tested at reseller AND replaced with some other brand. No help.

P7n Diamond 780i + corsair xms2 question

Hi guys,
i have to buy p7n diamond 780i and i would know if there are some particular issues between this mainboard and 4 sticks of 1 gb (4x1gb) of Corsair XMS2 PC6400C4 cl4 ver 6.2.
Really thank you for answers:)

Hello Edozz,
I don't see why there should be any problems with this memory.

MOVED: P7N Diamond Optimization and Overclocking

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=121203.0

First off:
Learn how Intel's Core 2 architecture works. Basically: how the FSB calls the shots, how Vdrop needs to be compensated for, etc..
>>Core 2 Duo/Quad OC Guide<<
If you wish to go more advanced (after doing the above, obviously), you can start tweaking with GTLREF and FSB VTT voltages: >>GTLREF and FSB VTT Voltage Tweaking<<
VGA card overclocking is another story... NVIDIA and ATI differ in both ways. With NVIDIA, getting the GPU and/or shader clock speed higher help most.
It would be better to overclock one card at a time, then go with the lowest overall clock speeds for both - upon completion - test them together (the thermals will play MUCH more a case here, so watch those temps while running SLI and the overclock).

MOVED: P7N Diamond/E8500 Overclocking Issue

https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=128705.0

Yep, CPU-Z version 1.51 is what I have installed. It kind of stinks that 3.7G's is the highest folks can get this board. I know many folks get the E8500 well past 4+G's, but I'll be happy with a stable 3.7G's. I really wanted to keep with BIOS overclocking, I just thought maybe I was doing something wrong. Any suggestions on some sort of performance testing I can do at default settings then at my overclock settings so I can verify I'm getting a performance increase?
Thanks for the reply!!!!!!!

P.S. Oh yea, my VID is 1.2250v... I knew I had it written down!

Help you with what?

I noticed that i have very very high temps on my Mobo, i cant have my finger on the Nb and the PciExpress coolers more then 1 sec:s
That's normal, it was the same with my P7N Plat. and is the same with the P5N-D from ASUS. The 750i Sli and the NF200 ("PCI Express Expander") are just getting awfully hot. It is very normal you can't touch the coolers as the chips are meant to even work at temps around 100°C and your fingers are therefor a bad problem indicator.
Just make sure to have a good airflow inside your case and everything's fine.
Doesn't seem like you need further help:

Hi all, been overclocking my new Phenom II 955 Recently, just at 3.6ghz with the stock cooler, machine runs a treat... BUT.. when i shutdown, it does everthing and the operating system closes down, all my hard drives spin down but the pc does not switch off. I have to manually kill the power at the psu.
When on normal settings it will turn off okay.
Any ideas??
I have excaly the same problem. It won't turn off for a while, then i have to reset the whole BIOS before I see anything on screen.

Please read this topic. It's a bunch of info, but it will tell you a lot about this board. Your DRAM is not the issue at hand, BIOS 1.2 is. Flash 1.51 beta to overclock stable. CAS Latency 4 is not an option in the current BIOS versions, it gets set to 3. So for the time being it's either CAS 5 or CAS 3.

Bomberth,
Please see the XS thread on the P7N for lots of OC tips and assistance:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=178286
Assuming you have a good Q6600 (preferably G0 stepping) and proper cooling, you should have no trouble OCing on this board.

MOVED: P7N Diamond - Sound in Ubuntu/Linux

This topic has been moved to Linux/Unix.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=124070.0

I'm on the original bios, 1.10. I would have tried updating to the 1.90 Linux bios version, but have been frightened off by the need, reported here, to put in the original OS recovery DVD and revert to that.
When I'm confident that I can make a copy of the existing 9.04 Ubuntu installation and recover back to that afterwards, I might look at updating the bios.
Does the later bios actually make much difference? A quick browse of what info is available doesn't reveal much. Of course, often if there is a huge mistake in early versions "they" prefer not to highlight it.
I'm limited by not having easy access to a USB DVD drive, so I'm trying to work with thumb drives or across the network.
