Look on fleabay you can buy bios chips just state the model of your board like but what yours is (Example) "Gigabyte Z170 Soc force Bios chip" and you should be able to buy one with the latest bios on it. Any more questions just ask. Or you can go to LTT forums and be dicked around by a lot of dipshits that dont really know what they are doing

Look around more... some ppl here fix their GPU's and MB's and even consoles... and I mean more than baking them in an oven...

Yep, I've bought from Ebay store called Bios Depot. They can set you up with whatever bios version you want on the chip also.
Good Luck!

If the bios chip isnt literally destroyed just desolder and program it with a cheap bios programmer like ch341a, no point swapping it out

Well if he has pulled it it probably isnt soldered its cheaper to buy a bios chip than a bios chip and a programmer. And everyone isnt a master solderer like you. From he's first explanation it sounds like he has pulled it and broke a leg or two off it just get another chip and pop it in. Hopefully he will post a pic and we will know exactly what is going on.

Ch341 are like 4-6$ with a bios test clip (for soldered ones so no need to desolder) If its fr broken like nuked a leg or 2 then yea replacement would prob be the best choice, although there are janky solutions like making new legs or resoldering the legs, maybe even soldering the damn thing to the mobo If its corruption then bios programmer all the way, also lets you screw around with bios flashing without worry of bricking cause you can just reflash a working bios, i mean my p5qd turbo on p5q mobo bios mod would be alot more annoying w/o bios programmer (main reason to crossflash is to mitigate bios crippling like on asus or testing modbioses for better oc ability)

Btw just randomly searching for giga p45 boards when i stumbled across an x48t dq6, is it any good? Or is it atleast capable of 550fsb?
The main reason im interested in it is because its bundles with a q9550, h212, and gtx 750 and only for 37$, gtx 750 alone would already sell for ~25ish $ and the q9550 would be ~10$ ish and i still got a leftover h212 and x48 i can sell
Basically if its weak but capable of 550fsb ill just sell it as an equivalent of giga ep45 boards at ~20$ to undercut the ep45 and also ddr3 which seems to be rather desirable for whatever reason, if its strong then ill contemplate on it but if its not much better than my ds4p ill just resell it for profit

A DQ6 will smash the shit out of your DS4P because DS4P is rubbish Clock for clock X48 belts the shit out of P45

Not a lot of people use Giga X48 but look at Rampage extreme and P5E3 premium both X48 and 2 of the best 775 boards there is. X48 eats P45. P45 was only the secondary chipset not the good one its loose and times are not the best.

We do what we do because we know what we are doing and that applies to how these things work. While we do OC there is alot more here and alot more to OC'ing than just doing it. If that weren't true I woudn't be able to help guys over there as I do. As for X48 vs P45, X48 holds the record for FSB, it screams in comparison to P45 but P45 isn't bad, it's just not as good as X48.

P45 was only the secondary chipset not the good one its loose and times are not the best. Ig if it turns out to be abit better fsb wise then maybe ill keep it, i mean basically noone has a clue of what x48 is just because they arent exactly mainstream so my ds4p is prob easier to sell, but if i can sell this x48 for like 30$ then sure why not, i mean youd need to do alot of mobo binning to even get ddr3 to 2000, let alone 2200 so not like i care about ddr3 when my extreem dark clocks to 1520

X48 will get hypers to 2000 6-6-6-20 1t and run benchmarks at over 650 bus. Do that on P45 you can only do it with 1 stick in at loose 2T timings and running a benchmark above 650 bus will crash. You havent got a clue what is good or bad or any idea how to differentiate between the Two. Look at HWBot E8600 SPi32 the top 15 subs are Rampage Extreme the 16th best is a P5E64 WS Evolution and guess what it is X48 P45 doesnt cut it only good for high frequency validations but cant bench for shit. BobNZ sub could be Giga X48 he is around 10th seeing as he has got a lot of stuff from Dino (Gigabyte) over the years. In the upcoming Teams Cup when I run Allendale it will be in a Rampage Formula X48 DDR2 be buggered if I will be useing slow P45.

Welp ordered the x48t and it should be here in a couple days, gpu was gone but i managed to negotiate down to 27$, board itself will prob sell around that mark so should have no worries of losses there incase giga x48 has garbage fsb capability
Also now ive got elpida ddr2 and theyre E1108AESE, complete garbage unable to boot >1200 even with subtimings completely loosened and a massive pain to get even a slow 1100 6-6-6-14 to be stable, even with completely loose subtimings it still flops after a minute with 2.1v, Theres also a code of some sorts that says 8e-e whatever the hell thats supposed to be (i assume binning), gonna have to sell these at a loss thats for sure and i doubt anyone will buy other than uninformed idiots
I really need to move to ddr4 where theres plenty of info and stuff i can use as reference rather than blindly overclocking with the only reference being ocz low voltage blade that are far superior to this trash ic. Also still semi relevant cause 13th gen gonna support it

Elpida isnt known for good DDR2. DDR3 Hypers is where Elpida shine I even consider their BBSE as meh. Micron D9 is the only player for DDR2.
DDR4 can you afford anything thats decent?

Theres plenty of decent ddr4 for dirt cheap in the form of bare green pcb sticks, only the 8gb stuff like rev e, djr, etc. I dont have a ddr4 platform atm but pretty likely i can just grab a 4500/5500 + a520m pro vh or a520mh and start running up to 5000 ddr4, though still out of my pricerange Also just got the giga x48t, abysmal bios with no vpll or gtl adjustment, wont even boot 600fsb, yea ill look around for info on these boards + abit of experimentation but ill likely just sell the thing, very very dissapointing board ngl Edit: 500fsb stable with just +0.3v nb offset, maybe max stable ~530 but i dont wanna bother tuning it that much, this thing is still worth ~20-23$ cause 500fsb is still pretty respectable from a normies prespective and enough for 4.5g on a 9x multi cpu like the e8400 or e5450 or 4.25g on an 8.5x multi cpu, the fact its ddr3 also helps. So accounting for the cooler, cpu, and rams im still gonna get ~13-17$ profit since w/o the mobo those alone are like 22-25$ combined and i only paid like 27$ for the combo, maybe finally i can get some investment from my parents and relatives and get ddr3 and ddr4 platforms, and btw the rams are mix match d9pfj and cfr, pretty solid rams but i think ill pass on the pfj and focus on selling the cfr since its also a high clocker like 4gbit mfr/bfr, unsure what to do with the pfj since i sold the damn x5660 cause its a mediocre pile of crap only doing ddr3 2200 and terrible 3rd core, but the x48 seems to be able to push 3v cause apparently it allows for +1.55v offset on dram volt, that would really be useful on a platform that can clock ddr3 higher :/

Aaand i sold the damn x48t, worthless pos anyways, and now ive made 5$ profit since i sold it (+ a q9550) for the same price as i bought it and i sold the rams for 5$, now theres just an h212 evo left over and thats getting sold for 9$
ill just keep flipping hardware and making $ and getting more interesting hardware on my hands, ddr4 platforms should be in reach after a little while

Just looking around for some mobo that may be able to replace my ds4p since im about to sell it and i found a p5k premium, apparently someone over at lttforum ran an e8600 at 4.7g daily on it with 551fsb x 8.5 multi back in the day. Now i wonder if this board is good or not since i wanna run 550+ fsb shenanigans and the ds4p kinda suck at ram oc so this should be better judging by my p5q being able to run my extreem dark at 1520 in a 1x3 config
I also wanna know how it compares to p5k pro since i can get a p5k pro for half the price of the premium (8$ vs 17$)

Premium is Asus best boards take P5E3 Premium it is second only to the REX. But being P35 I am not sure but I would be getting Premium over the Pro anyday. Most decent 775 boards shouldnt have any trouble getting a wolfdale to 550 bus.

Interesting Guess ill consider buying this board as a replacement for my ds4p, it should have better ram oc considering my p5q ocs ram like theres no tomorrow so it should be an upgrade I also havent mentioned bios modding so if it works with the blitz formula se bios ill crossflash to that with bios file maximus ii formula ebb mod, if not just the regular premium or deluxe bios + aformentioned mod. Maybe itll do higher fsb than this ds4p

don't spend your money on someones recollection or apparentlys'...
running the memory at that speed you'd have to claw back the timings and likely the command rate and you'd leave speed on the table... tight timings are usually better than loose timmings/high BLK...

Also ive been trying to get benchmate to work for a hwbot open oc sub but this stupid software will just not work, first the stupid driver init crap that keeps repeating every single restart, repairing with the installer fixed it but then trying to run superpi just does bullshit kernel32 errors
Any way to get benchmate to stop crapping itself and actually work? Im running w7 as usual

Post by Macsbeach98 on Aug 3, 2022 3:10:11 GMT -5
Are you trying to run Benchmate on 775 if so good luck on that. One thing I would suggest run W10 you might get Benchmate to work that way with W7 you have to run a older version of Benchmate like 10.7 I think.
