Well ,since your board is a different model with a newer chipset,I don't know what the bios update might do for you. I can confirm that my...
There's a chance of "killing the Bios" with any method of flashing if you do something wrong.The @Bios utility works fine.
Download the @Bios utility from the Gigabyte site.It will let you do the bios flash from windows.I've used it several times on different Gigabyte...
Not to be a downer here,but what's the use of running 8gb of ram on an OS that will only address 3gb?You need a 64 bit OS(ie:Xp64 or Vista 64) to...
They may be 1066 dimms but with a X2 5000 they would only be running at 800.You need a Phenom to run 1066.
If you don't need a full ATX board this would be a good choice....
I'm reluctant to bring this up after what we've seen already in this thread,but,according to the website,the DS5 doesn't support the 9850.Until...
The latest bios is F7e.It allowed my 2gb DDR2 8500 to run at 1066. http://www.giga-byte.com/Support/Motherboard/BIOS_Model.aspx?ProductID=2694
I'll not be getting any more ram for a while.Gotta save up a few bones for a Phenom II X4 940BE.
So far I can see that Asus seems to have this worked out.Has anyone gotten 4x2gb 1066 running on them or any other make? The latest bios...
So,your two top of the line(at the time)Asus boards can do what AMD says they can't.Lucky you. But two Asus boards hardly constitutes "AM2+...
Please explain the 3rd line in the memory section here then. http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=149&l3=789&l4=0&model=2503&modelmenu=2
Well I went from a 6400 X2 w/4gb DDR2 800,to a 8750 X3 w/4gb DDR2 1066 and my 3DM06 and Vantage scores stayed the same.(within 50 points) Both...
I'll stick with the recomendations from my previous post.That Crossfire board has the same chipset as our current boards.Same problem.The SLI...
I did overlook something.Forgot to reset the timings in the bios.Was running 6,7,7,20 dimms at 5,5,5,18.I'll recheck these tomorrow with proper...
Small update on some info here: I tried out a 4gb memory kit on my rig today.(2x2gb)NO GO.Crashed every few mins.Ran 3DM 06 and Vantage but...
With the Phenom 2's comming out next year,and socket AM3 not far after,running an AMD system is gonna get even more confusing than it is now....
I've emailed Gigabyte about the 9850 support before.They said because of the power circutry on the board not being robust enough to handle the...
Even the latest bios doesn't support your 9850 though.Also the memory support list doesn't show any 2gb sticks listed. These 1st edition 790FX...
You could try running only two memory sticks to see if that helps stability.4bg should be fine for gaming.(i'm running 2gb with no crashing ever)
