P35 Platinum and OCZ FLEX 2 4gb

Hello !
My sistem spec are : core 2 quad 6600 G0
P35 Platinum 1.6 bios
2*2gb OCZ Flex 9200 55515 2.1v
Gigabyte 3870
etc
I have a big problem overcloking my memorii over 1150 mhz . I need to set manualy tRD (Read Delay) some call it Transaction booster, some performance level.
The bios dosn't have this option !!!
I want to set manualy all this options :
tRFC , tRD , Write to precharge delay , Write to read delay (tWTR ) , tRRD , tRD_WR , tRTP , tREF . CR
Some of this setings are not in bios. What bios should i use ? or what can i do to have acces to manualy configure this ???

Hello,
note that the P35 Chipset natively supports only DDR2-667 and DDR2-800 memory modules. From the point of view of the memory controller, DDR2-1066 is already overclocking.

One reason for inventing DDR3-RAM was to be able to reach higher frequencies. So you may have reached the limits here.

Have you tried using Memset to be able to tweak additional timings?

What is the difference between P35 Platinum and P35 Neo2 FIR?

What is the difference between P35 Platinum and P35 Neo2 FIR?
P35 Platinum
P35 Neo2 FIR
BIOS is identical?

The P35 Neo2 is FIR is actually listed as P35 Neo2 FR/FIR. It is what you could call a "modular mainboard". Even if it has the same PCB as the P35 Platinum mainboard, it doesn't necessarily mean, that it will always come with the same features.
If you look at the mainboard manual you will find that the ICH9R-Chipset and Firewire are mentioned as optional features. That means you will be able to purchase versions of this mainboard that will only have an ICH9 chipset and therefore won't support RAID or that don't have a firewire interface.
The abbreviation F,I and R have the following meaning:
F...Gigabit LAN
I... Firewire
R...RAID
In case you decide to buy the P35 Neo2 mainboard, pay close attention to the feature list. Even if the board is listed as FIR by a specific dealer, make sure it really comes with firewire and an ICH9R-chipset. If someone decides to sell the board with the full name that appears on the MSI Support Site (FR/FIR) he might be actually trying to sell a P35 Neo2-F trying to get a better price.

P35 Platinum and MSI 8600 GT problem

I have a problem with the computer locking up. It will do it on certain web sites, clicking around in Media player and other programs. I tried everything I could think of. Finally I Got an 8400 video card locally and everything is fine. My question is, since the 8600 GT gets all of it's power from the PCIE slot could it be a voltage problem? If so, I see no way of increasing the PCIE voltage in the bios for this MB.
Any ideas before I send this card back?
Thanks,
Bill
Msi P35 Platinum Motherboard
Core2Duo 6850
2 gig Corsair XMS2 6400C4D Dominator Memory
OCZ Stealth X Stream 600 Watt Powersupply

It locked up with default bios settings and no overclocking. I didn't overclock the video card at all. I tried everything. Since I put in a temporary 8400GTS I have the processor overclocked to 3.3gig and everything is fine. Could the 8400 need less power than the 8600GT and if so is there a way to increase the voltage on the 16X PCIE slot? This is a MSI MB and MSI Video card so I would expect them to work together.

P35 Platinum and Realtek hd noise sound

I experience this hiss and crackle noise in the sound on my system and I dont know what causes this.
P35 platinum
q6600 processor
4GB ram (2 working ram sticks in right mem slots)
Latest Realtek hd driver installed afaik
Vista 64bit
I want to ask, could this be some IRQ issue? If so, feel free to teach me how to manage this, as this is beyond me.

Ah, apparantly the noise go away if I switch from front end jacks to rear end jacks on my computer cabinet. I'll just see if I can figure this out on my own then.

P35 Platinum and eSata problem

I recently bought a WD My Book Premium ES 500GB and when i try to connect it via eSata cable, it doesn't work.My system can't recognize the drive, it doesn't show up in BIOS screen where HDD's are. I tried 2 different eSata cables but nothing.Via USB2 connection it works fine.
My system Specs are: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600,MSI P35 Platinum Mobo with latest BIOS update 1.1, 2GB RAM DDR2, Asus X1950XT VGA,Tagan 500W PSU.
I tried both eSata ports at the Back Panel of my motherboard but none worked with My Book.
Is there a problem with My Book? or is a compatibility issue?

Make sure you have set the switch or whatever your external drive has, to E-Sata mode. I'm sure you probably already did that but just sayin!
I have a different board AND different external drive but after playing with my setup for a whole day trying to get the esata to work, it finally dawned on me that I had not set the switch from USB to Esata (no wisecracks please
As soon as I did the switch, the Esata started working just fine.

P35 Platinum and Vista/ACPI issue

I'm having problems trying to get Vista installed on my P35 Platinum-based system. I'm getting an error at the beginning of Vista's installation that the BIOS doesn't support ACPI. Well, that option is turned on in the BIOS, and I've toggled just about every setting under the Power Management section of the BIOS config utility, but nothing makes a difference. I flashed the latest (1.2) BIOS to the board, no change. I'm also seeing the computer go to a 'Safe to turn off your computer' screen rather than it just powering off - is this related?
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

ACPI has to be enabled before you install XP. If you re-enable it after installing XP, you will get a bluescreen. If you used an existing Windows Installation, that was set up under different system conditions, it probably didn't have the proper HAL drivers for the new configuration.
If you re-install XP with ACPI, IOAPIC and MPS Table = 1.4 you shouldn't have any problems.

Device Manager does not permit the change from a Non-ACPI HAL to an ACPI HAL. You must use a new install of Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 for this kind of change. Change from an ACPI HAL to a Non-ACPI HAL only for troubleshooting purposes.

P35 Platinum and WD Hard Disks unrecognised on cold boot

Hi,
I am having a problem with my WD drives on my P35 Platinum motherboard. Simply, if I power down my PC neither drive is recognised when I boot up again. Usually I have to open the PC, reseat the SATA cables (this may be a red herring) and then when restarted the drives are recognised again.
A simple restart from within Windows (warm boot) works every time.
I would have suspected a cabling connection problem, except that I have tried other cables and also the fact that it is both drives every time, rather than one, other or both randomly.
I have seen other people having problems with the spin-up time of WD drives and have disabled quick booting in the BIOS, but this has not helped much. I have also verified that the RAID Mode is set to IDE, as I am not using any RAID features.
The disks themselves are plugged into SATA3 & SATA4, whilst my Pioneer DVD Writer is plugged into SATA5.
I have the latest BIOS installed but cannot remember the version number off the top of the head, my full hardware spec is in my sig and the 160GB drive is my system disk.
Does anyone have any other suggestions that I could try?
Apart from this issue my PC works flawlessly.
Regards,
Charles

Just FYI though, it appears (by some comments on Newegg.com) that there is some compatibility issue between my CoolerMaster Real Power Pro 750W and the P35 Neo2-FR motherboard. The power supply worked fine by itself, and the motherboard ended up working fine with a different power supply (Antec Neopower 650 Blue).

P35 Platinum and NX8800GTS

I have both motherboard and graphic card from MSI (oh yeah ):
- Graphic card : NX8800GTS T2D640OE
- Motherboard : P35 Platinum (MS-7345 v1.x)
And I have question about power connectors on board of graphic card and motherboard. On motherboard there is power connector sweetly called JPWR1, described in manual as "JPWR1 12V power connector is used to provide power to the PCIEX16 graphics card".
But on graphic card is already power connector. I can plug in specific cable that divides in two normal power connectors to connect to power supply.
It is safe to plug in all three connectors to power supply? (one to JPWR1 on motherboard, two to graph card through this special cable)
It is even neccessary to plug in all connectors?

Maybe I will buy another hard drive in future, but nothing more.
I punched your component list into the eXtreme Power Supply Calculator v2.5. Only the Pro-Version (not free) shows the amperages on the different rails (+12V, +5V, +3,3V). The overall wattage if a PSU doesn't really really mean anything without the amperage values.
Anyways, I selected "High End Desktop Mainboard", "2 SATA drives" in the component list, added three 120mm fans, three USB devices and one additional PCI card. I also set CPU Utilization (TDP) to 100%.
The result is:
Quote
373W
+12V: 23A
+5V: 13.4A
3.3V: 9A
On the bottom the is footnote to the option called "Electrolytic capacitor aging" that says:
Quote
When used heavily or over an extended period of time (1+ years) a power supply will slowly lose some of its initial wattage capacity. We recommend you add 10-20% if you plan to keep your PSU for more than 1 year, or 20-30% for 24/7 usage and 1+ years.
When I enter 15% the calculation adds up to:
Quote
429W
+12V: 26.5A
+5V: 15.4A
3.3V: 10.4A
Finally, I overclocked your CPU to 4GHz / VCore 1.4V:
Quote
481W
+12V: 30.8A
+5V: 15.4A
3.3V: 10.4A
I don't know how accurate these calculations are. In any case, they should give you an idea of your systems power consumption. When I choose PSUs I always make sure I have a headroom of about 30% in the +12V-amperages. So if I was you I would get a PSU with about 36-40A maximum amperage on the +12V-Rail, depending if I plan to overclock the CPU or not.
Many users in this forum will recommend choosing a Single +12V-rail PSU. One of the reason is you won't have to worry about problems due to inbalanced power loads or wasted power resources.
If you plan to get a PSU with two +12V-rails, make sure that the maximum amperage on each rail is at least 18-20A. Maximum combined amperage on +12V should not be less than 36-40A.

P35 Platinum and Patriot Memory DDR2 PC6400

Hello,
I've tried to adjust RAM Timings, RAM Voltage and RAM frequency manually on my P35 Platinum with BIOS 1.4. I had a reboot loop at CAS 4 so I've tried to put at 1000 MHZ ratio 2:3 after a clear CMOS. It's working.
Now my Patriot Memory is working at CAS 5 ratio 2:3 2,2V and 1000 MHz.
Should I carry on my "quest" to CAS 4 or are these settings good enough? I'm quite lost.....What should I have to do?
Does Patriot Memory owners experienced the same issue? Why can't they be set to CAS 4?
One more thing: After the Post, the Marvell Bios loads but find no hard disk on adapter 1. With Bios 1.1, there was no problem. Do you have any explanations?
Thanks

Hello Spikape,
please list full system specs and provide more information about the specific model/type of Patriot Memory you are using.

Can you try to be more specific about this? Was it an on-->off-->on-->boot cycle or did your system reboot multiple times?

P35 Platinum and 1066mhz Ram OC

Hi there I just bought 4 x 1GB DDR2 1066mhz just would like to know how to set it to run at that speed can anybody help me out im looking for the easyiest way
Specs:
MSI P35 Platinum bios v1.8
MSI 8800GT 512mb OC
Intel Q9300
4GB 1066mhz Ram DDR2
Zalman 750watt PSU

you have to change the FSR: DRAM Ratio.... Your quad has 333mhz of FSB (if you didn't OC), so... you have to choose between 1:1.5 -> to push the mems to DDR 1000mhz (333 x 1.5 = 500mhz) or 1:1.66 to obtain DDR 1100mhz (333 x 1.66 = 550mhz)...
EDIT: see the especifications of your mems, surely they need 2.1v at least to go at 1000 or 1100mhz

K9a platinum and ocz memory cas 4-5-4-15

Hi ,
I need help and i need it fast
I have k9a platinum and i want to buy this memory:
OCZ Platinum 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800, 4-5-4-15,
Is it compatible with my mobo and do u have opinion about this ram?
Thanx

Well my OCZ RAM which is meant to run @ 800MHz 4-4-4-15 timings. Runs very fine @ 800MHz w/ 4-4-4-10. 4-4-4-10 works up until about 870MHz.
OCZ seem to state their timings lower then the RAM sticks can actually cope for some reason.
I'm pretty sure it'll work, but contact OCZ for a correct answer.
Also like Bas said: Sig should be updated

The 2900 bits the 8800 gts in allot of benchmarks and its value rocks
I've found
the 2900 in a Greek eshop for 330 euros and the cheapest 8800 is 280 euros.
50 euros more is nothing compared to the performance difference between the two vga's

MOVED: P35 Platinum and Q9550 OC

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=140837.0

Ah OK took me a while but last night finally looked at OCing the Q9550 with my P35 Platinum.
Not spent lots of time on it so far but a couple of questions if I may?
It was not happy having the cpu volts on auto when trying 3.4GHZ so have been gradually increasing the FSB and vcore manually.
My cpu has a VID of 1.1 volts.
When I manually increase the voltage in the bios it suggests anything highlighted in red might cause instability, and 1.1875 is the first increment that is highlighted in red.
1. This seems a little low to me for a warning, is this MSI being cautious as the Q9550 can go higher than that? (temperatures were in the high 50s during prime95)
At this voltage I have reached 3.3 GHZ so far but will increase as long as its safe to raise the voltage?
I would like to hit a stable 3.4GHZ as Bernhard reached happily so that my ram is running at the correct speed (800) with the divider set at 1:1. (its about 777 at the moment).
2. How would I know if any instabilities were due to the vcore being too low or if the NB volts needed tweaking?
Any pointers would be appreciated as I'm quite inexperienced at this.
Thanks

MSI P7N SLI Platinum and OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 SLI-Ready Edition

Hello,
I have a MSI P7N SLI Platinum nForce 750i SLI motherboard and I would like to inquire if it is fully compatible with OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 SLI-Ready Edition memory? Firstly, I do not seem to get the correct timings with the default settings, speed is not very good, after 5 hours of running Memtest86+ there was 30 errors. I have never had the memory crash and games seem to run fine, but the memory feels much slower than it should be. Is the memory supposed to work fine with this motherboard and I'm just imagining everything? I don't know if I'm also supposed to be worried by the errors Memtest86+ returned?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Quote from: Del UK on 07-September-08, 05:44:14
If memtest returned errors, yes
Well, there does not have to be a problem with the memory just because it returned errors. There could be many other explanations why there are errors.
Quote from: Jack the Newbie on 07-September-08, 08:04:45
Jacobl, please post full system specs. Read the >>Posting Guide<< to get an idea of the details you should provide.
How many modules of what capacity do you have? What are your current RAM-related BIOS settings?
If you have more than one stick of RAM, please test each stick seperately with memtest86+ and see if the errors are caused by one of the sticks only. Otherwise there is no way to tell if there is a compatibility problem or just a faulty memory stick.
Please post a link to the OCZ product site and also a screenshot of the CPU-Z "SPD" tab.
I have this memory: http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/memory/ocz_ddr2_pc2_6400_sli_ready_edition_4gb_dual_channel.
This is the rest of the components as instructed by the forum post you linked to:
Intel E8200
MSI P7N SLI Platinum
OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 SLI-Ready Edition 4GB Dual Channel
Gigabyte Geforce 8800GT 512MB PCI
500GB Western Digital SATA
SATA DVD burner
Windows XP SP3
Antec 500W PSU
I usually troubleshoot components step by step - eliminating all possible reasons until I have found the solution. My first step was to post here to find out if there are any known compatibility issues with the motherboard and memory. I adjusted the memory timings with a slight overclock because the motherboard did not load the default timings by default. I will start by adjusting the BIOS settings, check if the memory is inserted into the right DIMM slots and then test the memory sticks one by one. But to answer my own question: I think the motherboard and memory should have no compatibility issues and it must be something else.
Quote from: Freestate on 07-September-08, 23:06:36
I have the OCZ 6400 Fatal1ty modules 2x2 GB that is very similar of the ones you ask.And they are running perfectly but i must set the epp latency and voltaje values in BIOS! The simple modules of ocz are in the memory compatibilty list i thought that the SLI and Falal1ty modules are just the same with a little boost.
I had to set the right timings also. As far as I know, the SLI and Fatal1ty modules are probably the same, just with a little boost. I think it would be very strange if a module with the name "SLI-Ready Edition" and a Nforce 750i motherboard would not be compatible together.
Anyway, any other advice on what steps I should take? I assume by now that the motherboard and memory should work together without problem. Sorry if I started out bad by not following the posting guidelines on the forum.
