FAQ

I have just purchased an ASUS P965 chipsets based motherboard with FSB1333 support, and found the system may refuse to boot when particular DIMM modules have been installed.

Are there any special requirements for FSB1333 support on these motherboards?


Solution

As FSB1333 support on P965 chipsets based motherboards are done via overclocking techniques, the memory support requirements may be rather critical as compare with conditions when working with its natively supported FSB frequencies.

 

ASUS has hence implemented a series of BIOS updates to improve its memory compatibility under FSB1333.  Please kindly update your BIOS to the following or later versions to allow better memory compatibility under FSB1333 mode:
