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.

  • HELP! - Voltages for Overclocking Q9450 on the MSI P7N Diamond (780i chipset)

    Hey.  I fully understand the settings as far as frequencies go, but am a total voltage newb.  No matter what I do I cant seem to get a stable vista load up with my voltage settings. 
    Please help me by providing suggested voltage settings for my hardware.
    CPU - Intel Core2Quad Q9450
    RAM - 6 gigs of DDR2-800 rated at 2.1V
    VIDEO - Dual Nvidia Geforce 8800GT's in SLI
    MOBO - MSI P7N Diamond, based off the Nvidia Nforce 780i SLI chipset
    My cooling is sufficient, and I have the BIOS version 1.2
    I also turned off all of the overclocking not friendly functions, example: spread spectrum, and DOT, ETC....
    I am trying to run my CPU at 3.2 GHZ (400 mhz before multiplier)
    my settings I want are (as shown in the P7N bios)
    System Clock Mode - Manual
    FSB clock - 1600
    DRAM clock - 800
    Please help me by providing the proper voltages for my setup
    Everything I need is marked by "???"
    CPU Voltage - ???
    DRAM Voltage - (already have, its 2.1)
    NB voltage - ???
    SB voltage - ???
    NB Memory reference voltage - ???
    DIMM memory reference voltage - ???
    Memory terminator voltage - ???
    CPU GTL reference voltage - ???
    NB GTL reference voltage - ???
    FSB terminator voltage - ???
    SB sleep mode voltage - ???
    PCI Expander PLL voltage - ???
    For the sake of you not typing too much, if you specify voltages, any that you do not specify will be assumed to be left at [AUTO]
    PLEASE help me by providing some voltages for me, as I have absolutely no clue what to put for them.  If you have any questions about my hardware feel free to ask, and any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED

    adjusting gtl ref. voltages isn't very difficult, but it is probably best to learn the basics first.
    So, basically, increase the fsb a little. So, for example, from 1333 to 1400. See if it's stable, if it isn't try bumping up vcore one notch and try again. If not try Northbridge. Then later move on to stuff like the fsb term.
    Test stability using prime95, there is a 64-bit multi-core aware version floating around somewhere. Try the ftp server linked to in the "hot use prime95" sticky on here.
    Tbh with your OC you shouldn't need to touch any other voltages, or really use the gtl ref settings. What exactly is "sufficient" cooling though? Stock?
    *EDIT: on a side note, just so you don't think I'm deliberately being awkward not telling you specific voltages, they wouldn't do you any good. Every cpu/mobo can handle different freq. at different voltages. Also, use cpu-z to check on your actual voltage and make sure you don't raise it beyond 1.3625 (I think that's right, it's 1.36something anyway)
    Thanks for the tips.  The reason I wanted to jump straight to FSB 1600 is because the MSI p7n is really picky and only likes 1:1 ratios. 
    My "sufficient cooling" is an aftermarket heatsink, high performance thermal paste, and MASSIVE airflow through my case.  If you want specifics, its the Scythe Zipzang

    CPU Voltage - No one can tell you this.
    NB voltage - Depends on what frequency you want
    SB voltage - What's your HDD setup?
    NB Memory reference voltage - Auto
    DIMM memory reference voltage - Auto
    Memory terminator voltage - Auto
    CPU GTL reference voltage - Depends on speed and other voltages
    NB GTL reference voltage - Same as above
    FSB terminator voltage - Depends on CPU voltage and CPU/FSB clock speed
    SB sleep mode voltage - Auto
    PCI Expander PLL voltage - Auto
    My recommendation is do some reading. Guessing leads to dead hardware.
    6GBs smells like mixing modules... Or do you have 3 modules?
    First of all, I already stated the frequencies that I wanted in the top post, and fairly clearly at that. 
    CPU shouldnt be too hard to figure out, as there are very few to choose from.  I'll try to get back to you on that one
    I have 5, 7200rpm SATA 3.0 drives.  It sometimes runs with only 4, as one is a hot swap. 
    My ram IS mixed, unfortunately.  I'm using 2x 1gig sticks, and 2x 2gig sticks.  However, both sets have heatsinks, and are rated at 800mhz, 4-4-4-12, 2t, timings.  (2.1v)
    I AM running them in dual channel.
    If this helps you suggest voltages please do, If not, then I will just have to start trying using nihilkrist's suggestions.

  • 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?

  • P7N Diamond cannot cold boot -updated

    Q6700 2.66/8/1066
    MSI P7N Diamond 780i-SLI
    Corsair Dominator DDR2-1066

    Vista 32 bit
    Just got a machine from a company in California. Had some initial problems and returned it on RMA. Got a new MB, RAM and one new graphics Card.
    Now that I have it back I am having trouble fully booting. Every once in a while, I am able to get through the boot sequence and start running games only to have the machine freeze then blue screen. After that cycle I am back to the beginning, not being able to boot into vista.
    As far as the beep codes, I get two separate short beeps, then two rapid beeps (back to back) then a fourth beep.
    RAM is seated in slots 1 and 3
    The 2 graphics cards are seated as follows:
    One card is in the first blue PCIE slot
    2nd card is in the (only) white PCIE slot (presumably so that I can seat the included X-FI Xtreme sound card into the only PCI slot)
    Recommendations?

    Quote from: Oglow on 12-September-08, 03:07:50
    As far as the sound card goes, I assumed it was PCI due to the length of the tab that goes into the mobo. It is the same one that everyone else received with the board, though (X-FI Xtreme). Can I really insert this into a PCI-E slot when the tab on the sound card is MUCH shorter? I never would have considered that...
    Whoa! No, of course not. Sorry, better forget what I said in that case. The difference between a PCI and PCIe 1x connector should be really, really obvious, so you'll have done it right. I was just confused, as I did get the PCIe version with that board (there are both a PCI and a PCIe version of the card, though).
    Quote from: Oglow on 12-September-08, 03:07:50
    I will have to get into BIOS and verify the voltge to my RAM. I am not a modder and have never OCed anything therefore I don't typically screw around with BIOS settings too much.
    If you haven't changed the defaults, the RAM should run at 800 MHz, in which case it doesn't really need the higher voltage, so that's okay then.
    Oh, and I've never noticed the USB-beep relation, but then I don't have a lot of USB devices. :p
    Anyway, keep us posted, and good luck

    This is from awhile ago, but may have some ideas & settings that may be of use for you. The OC seemed to work better with a 1:1 ratio. Ram speed of 825 - FSB of 1650 in my case. It would not run stable at RAM speed 1066. 412.5 would net about 3.506 or so for you. Hope this helps.
    thanks for the help, I think is the problem, the memory's, I will test and see how it

  • Overclock E8500 on P7N diamond nforce 780i

    I have read the guides here, and beginning to understand more about overclocking. However I need to know if there is any chance to overclock my cpu with only a stock cooler. I have not touched anything inside the Bios yet, besides shutting off EIST.
    My system:

  • Question regarding Antec Power Trio 550 and GSkill PC8500 RAM on P7N Diamond

    Good Afternoon,
    I recently built a new machine using the P7N Diamond System Board. Here are the current Specs
    Intel Q6600 Processor
    G.Skill 2 GB PC8500 RAM PK Series
    Seagate Barracudda SATAII HDD
    GeForce 9600 GT OC 512M (BFG TECH)
    Antec Power Trio 550 PSU
    I have 2 questions, I configured the RAM in my bios to run at 1066 with manual timings that the manufacturer gave as CL5-5-5-15 and while it is runs at 1066 I'm only getting a Vista Rating of 5.0 for the ram while everything else is at 5.9. If anyone is running G.Skill RAM on this board and have gotten better numbers please share with me what you did to achieve it.
    Second Question, I noticed there was no dedicated power supply fan connector on this MB, in order to take advantage of the Antec Smart Fan technology do I need to plug this fan connector into a specific system fan connector port on the Motherboard??
    Thanks in Advance

    Ignore the Vista rating, it is not accurate to beging with.  Run a memory performance test with some benchmark tool and compare the numbers there.

  • 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. 

  • New Need Sink needed for MSI P7N Diamond nForce 780i SLi (Socket 775)

    Hi Guys,
    I've been having a problem with my machine where it will be working away as and then suddenly restart. I haven't been able to pin point the problem as it can happen regardless of applications or load thats on the machine. I've also run a couple of app's to check the RAM and its fine. The only thing I've been noticing is that the 4 cores of my Q6600 seem to be running a bit hot. On average on Idle there running between 45-55oc. Does this seem normal? I'm thinking that the cpu might be over heating when I'm running apps. I've seen one of the cores up around 68oc when under a bit of load. I'm using the stock heat sink at the moment and would like to cool things down it see if that helps. Can anyone recommend something suitable for my motherbroad.
    Thanks

    Thermaltake ToughPower 750W Modular Power Supply
    My Q6600 (also G0/SLACR but don't know what you mean by "Pro") is OC'd to 3.4GHz and has had no problems running stable.  Highest temps during OCCT/Linpack and LinX/Linpack peak at 80C 1st/2nd cores - 76 C 3rd/4th cores.  Other tests (e.g. Prime95 small FFTs) run much cooler.  I've run 2hr+ linpack tests with no errors, so I don't think you need to worry about your temps yet.
    However, may I suggest that you check into is your power supply, in particular the modular connections.  I had the ToughPower 750W Modular before upgrading to PCP&C.  I noticed that the ToughPower's modular connections had a tendency to be just a tad loose.  They wouldn't dislodge but they had a little bit of play.  I could jiggle them ever so slightly while they were connected.  As a result, the CPU power cable (8-pin/4-pin) would cause a restart upon the slightest disturbance or sensation.  I've since discovered that modular connectors also affect the efficiency, power noise levels, and overall performance of a PSU.  All in all, I plan to avoid modular connectors entirely going forward.  Many newer cases have excellent cable management features and even old-style cases can be cleaned up with a little planning and effort.  So the modular cabling advantages don't offset the severe disadvantages.  Even if your problem isn't due to the PSU, it's something I'd recommend considering replacing.
    Good luck.  Hope all the suggestions are able to help you nail down and resolve your issue.

  • MSI P7N Diamond NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI 3-way brigde

    3 Way SLI Connector Model 401-MB-0023-01
    Hi there recently i received a package from your company with an motherboard MSI P7N
    Diamond, nForce-780i SLI, i suddenly understood that there were not any kind of
    3 Way SLI Connector! Therefore i am now asking how come there are none of this inside
    your package and if i want to order a part! Where do i get it from? I asked EVGA they said
    that they were chipping theirs sli bridges with their motherboard and said that is also what
    your company do as well! So i ask you again how come there is no 3- way sli connector in
    my package! Reason for this high priority is since i have 3 GTX 280 sli and i can't run 3
    -way without this 3- way sli connector!
    I live in Norway and i have been struggling with finding people who might be able to solve this problem for me!
    So i would appreciate you and the company too have a look at this case and let me know if
    its possible to get one from you! Without any money cost! And if it is possible to get one but
    it will charge then, how much? Best regards From Halvor bø

    Your board should have come with three SLI cables. Two short & one long to comprise the 3-way SLI bridge cables. Installation & full description can be found on pages 2-22 & 2-23 of your owners manual.

  • P7N Diamond Question

    Hello and greetings! Just got my new P7N Diamond and it has a multiplier issue.  I've flashed ver 1.1B4 but to no avail.  I heard the performance Bios P05 resolves the Kentsfield issue.  My E8500 worked fine @ 4.2 in my msi P35 board.  I see no reason for it not to run with the this new board.  Where can i download the performance bios?  Thanks

    Greetings! I didn't try the bios P05 ver. I'm a bit worried with the results hehe. I'm just wondering why the 9.5 multiplier is still missing. Whenever I try to overclock I get all sorts of errors.  Is there any way you can help me on this. Thanks again
    Have a look around the forum, there's plenty of info.

  • P7N Diamond no post Corsair Dominators

    Here is the deal.  I'm trying to boot these http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2458326&CatId=0
    No matter what I get a no post.  Tried 1 stick in each slot and the samething.  Now my OCZ SLI DDR2 800 2x2 boot without a hitch.
    Any ideas what I can do?

    The image is a bit blurry, but looks like they are from the same revision & batch which is good. Populating all the dimm slots with the P7N always was a challege on the MC. Most likely going to have to tweak a lot of stuff, & it has been too long since I did one of these. If the thread is still here, it was titled P7N OC & QX9650 or something like that. Found it. Maybe something there to help with what settings may be involved. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=118301.0
    In fact, you might want to use the 'Search Button' for P7N Diamond threads. May be even more information that will assist you. Someone may have tried those RAM sticks 'back in the day'.
    I'll do some searching in that thread.  Thanks for that.  I'm rusty as hell with 775 systems.  I'm so use to X58 that I'm like ummm crap.  So relearning sucks!
    Here is a close up shot of the specs.

  • MOVED: P7N Diamond - Memory Problem ???

    This topic has been moved to Intel Core Duo and Core 2 Duo based boards.
    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.

  • New build; P7N Diamond won't POST

    I ran a few searches and couldn't come up with anything conclusive.  Yes, I did read the sticky BIOS error codes and it didn't help.  I powered on the PC for the first time, and all I get is a constant beep that never stops.  Needless to say the PC doesn't POST.  Anyone know what the continuous beep error code is exactly? 
    All connections have been verified and re-plugged to ensure proper contact.  I'm questioning the processor, or the power supply.  Any assistance or advice is greatly appreciated.

    Have you tested each video card seperately in the primary PCIE slot?
    Have you tested each memory module seperately in all memory slots?
    Did you double-check all power connections (especially 4/8-Pin +12V CPU)?
    I have checked each video card in the primary slots as well as both in the other blue x16 slot.  No change
    I have checked each memory stick in each of the slots.  No change

    The P7N Diamond uses an 8-pin +12V CPU power connector near the top-rear of the computer.  I had to use an extender to get my 8-pin powersupply plug to reach.
    All power connectors are indeed plugged in, the 24 pin as well as the 8pin for the CPU.  THe board is laying on my desk at the moment in a bare bones config outside the case.  The 8pin connector will reach, allbeit barely.  I'd just like to see some output before I worry about making the inside of the case neat and tidy.
    Keep the suggestions coming please.  I'd rather make this work than start RMA-ing various components.
