i don't really know what to look for tbh
i have only done SLI mod on intel boards that's all

btw i did the jumper but it's not letting me going up any higher than 3.2v tops
unless i am missing something

did you figure out your ram yet you kiki? (cant believe I missed the HTlink shit.. man I gotta hang out at CP more.

kikicoco1334 10-16-2011 09:31 PM

hahaha i didn't even know about that HT link stuff so don't feel bad :thumbsup:

so here is how i tested out...
i been told the BH-5s will NOT boot at CL3 and TCCD will and the GeIL i have can boot at CL3 just fine

i monna test out the Corsair tomorrow i know that's BH-5s which that's confirmed

i am so excited about the upcoming breaks gonna just bench and do homework nothing more

After you move the jumpers, in the bios , in the voltages, there's a function that says something like "enable if over 3.2v". You have to enable that also. Then you should be able to select Vdimm up to 4.0v.
If you have trouble, I'll post pics of my board and bios to help you get through it.
You should also know that BH-5 will only work in the Yellow slots, and if you're only using 1 stick it has to go in the Yellow slot farthest away from the CPU, or it won't boot.
As for modded bios', the 623 bios is pretty freakin' good, second only to my own modded bios. Use the correct variation for the type of ram you'll be running.

More than welcome. Drop by anytime, even if it's just to say hey.:)

If running an Ultra-D, you will need to move a jumper as Mr. Scott stated but the Expert doesn't need any jumpers moved and goes up to 4.0v's for RAM voltage in the BIOS - Mine does. :this:
With either board use the orange slots, not the yellow ones for best results with whatever RAM you use.

then my board is retarded!
i did both still don't have the option for 4.0 it's really pissing me off now...
don't have BH5 chip and board don't work right and i got nothing better to do right now other than being a slave and installing mac os on a dell xps for someone for $40 i am abou to pop someone

btw my board is a SLI-DL not a expert

If you can boot BH-5 in the orange slots you're doing better than most. Almost everybody I talk to including myself, can't.

Bios flash, new battery, and a long CMOS clear.;)

I thought it was - my bad.

I know my board can be picky about what RAM I use in it - Some sticks do fine, some don't and it doesn't seem to be IC based. Some of my BH5's and TCCD sticks will work, some don't.
For example my OCZ PC4400's work great in it and the board seems to love 'em but my Corsair XMS PC4400's won't work and it mainly seems to be a Corsair "Thing" based on what I have.

getting ready to redo the BIOS to N4D704-2BT (BigToe Mod)

Code:

- based on 704-2
- removed all the CAS settings that don't work
- removed the added 0.1vdimm thats applied when you set TRCD to 2
- unlocked some unknown register options (A , B , C , E , D)
- Vcore bug of 704-X "removed" (123% and high

hope that works...
but yeah it's really balls breaking when i found out the ram is not BH-5 but CH-5 it pretty much ruined two of my days :shock:
