Hey! So while working on a retro gaming build, I've been having one of the weirdest issues I've ever ran into: my Asus P5Q-EM DO uATX motherboard outright refuses to post with an nVidia GeForce GTX 285 specifically. The card works with another slightly newer asus mobo, the M5A97 R2.0, and the board works with both onboard and with a Radeon HD 5450. Bios is the latest version - 1301, released in 2013(beta). CMOS clearing also didn't work. I hit the power button, all of the fans spin up(including the gpu's blower, and the led turns green) and the cpu fan revs up to full speed and never slows down. No beeps, no error code, the power button led never turns on, a bit of hdd activity for a couple seconds and then nothing, and no video signal. My specs: Core 2 Quad Q9650 @ 3Ghz Deepcool GAMMAXX 400 with 120mm fan Thermaltake Smart 80+ Gold 600w psu EVGA GeForce GTX 285 1GB

I have a Intel Core 2 quad q9550 with an Asus P5Q motherboard i need help for overclocking because I already did overclock it and all of the overclocked were totally not stable that means you would get windows crash and programs. If anybody can help me on this please I really want a 3.6GHz if it's possible.

31 minutes ago Add bookmark #1 Someone said its good for overclocking and internet said 4,2 is possible with it but i have no idea about anything. hope for help to overclock it for stable for "24/7 " gaming . dont want it at top of the maximum, but some stable new clockspeed shoud be ok iguess. --- inside of my pc : Motherboard : P5q-e Processor : Intel core 2quad Q9650 3.0 ghz Processor cooling : is acctualy some type of water cooling system but no idea about the name. My ram : is not 4 times the same, must i overclock ram options in bios too or can i leave them on standart ? is there any difference ? https://prnt.sc/p210rg gpu : shoud be that one > https://www.pcbilliger.de/622/radeon-r7-240-4gb-ddr3-1x-vga-1x-dvi-1x-hdmi-inkl.-einbau?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-OSM6IW55AIVjOd3Ch3K3A1WEAQYASABEgL7ZPD_BwE < but acctualy not realy sure about it . its flashed acctualy but that shoud not be interesting. (win 7 if there is any differnce o.o) ---- Some information about the parts that are listed -> processor :https://ark.intel.com/content/www/de/de/ark/products/35428/intel-core-2-quad-processor-q9650-12m-cache-3-00-ghz-1333-mhz-fsb.html Motherboard : https://www.asus.com/de/Motherboards/P5QE/specifications/ ( acctualy a de side dont found it on english ) this is the bios i can move inside acctualy : View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAYTaaVJ2wY i dont trust this youtube video and dont want to shoot it down with first try -- which programs shoud i use to see how stable it is ?

Apologies this will be long winded, 2 pcs both with dead boards 90%+ certain First pc (life line to everything), cpu: i5 3750 (?) motherboard: asus p8z77 premium ram: 16gb (4xdimm) 1600 corsair psu: (was bequiet modular 1000w - fried) now evga 750w modular gpu: amd radeon 7850 2gb x 2 (crossfire) System was custom built by myself roughly 7 years ago, has run perfectly being on mostly 24/7. Last week I came back to it after 10 minutes to find no display, case led showed power but there was a very obvious electrical buzzing from case, most likely psu. I initially tried a reset, same thing, tried once more then powered off. Left it awhile, came back tried to power on, nothing at all, no power, no fans, no beeps, no lefds, absolutely nothing. Immediate thoughts are dead psu. Second time I tried to power it flipped the circuit breaker immediately. There was no electrical burning smell or obvious signs of damage other than the electrical buzzing which ceased prior as above. Everything was connected to a surge protector which had no obvious damage and was still powering other devices without issue. Ordered new psu which arrived few days later. Inspected inside case abit closer and could see no obvious signs of damage, not to psu or board, no blown capacitors etc.. Removed old psu, tested with paper clip method, no response. Tested new psu prior to installing, fan powered on fine. Installed new psu, still nothing, absolutely nothing. Removed ine component at a time retesting each time, nothing all the way down to just psu and board. So dead board? It occurred to me afterwards I hadnt actually even heard the new psu fan come on despite testing prior. Removed new psu, retested, nothing.. so now im thinking has this coincidentally died or suffered damage due to faulty board also? Retested old psu (on its own) it blew straight away so fairly adamant that was initial or atleast part of problem. So now im at a slight loss as i havent delved into pc hardware building or repairs since marriage/kids. Assumed new psu wasnt actually dead and maybe wasnt firing because it needed something extra to get it going. Reinstalled to board and fans, still nothing. Reset cmos, nothing, hard reset cmos, nothing, replaced cmos battery, nothing. Assuming board is totally dead along with old psu, new psu still question mark. At this point I dont have the resources to do any further testing. Purchased a cheap compatible system, primrarily to get me up and running, I was considering doing a full in restore of old to new but had a few worries especially as to source(s) Of damage and not wanting to blow another system. Also heavily concerned with data loss as I stupidly did not have a full backup but kept private file backup in a HDD attached to same sytem (i know stupid but life hasnt thrown me many bones lately to contend with it appropriately. New system had a gigabyte z77 board, so i tested old system ram, gpus and ssd/hdd All appeared to be fine except one of the gpu which was emitting a static display when connected (hdmi) havent tried dvi but second test was black screen. Not the end of the world but something too look into later. Now my big issue is with ssd(s). I had 4 plus an msata in old system, one was OS samsung 850 256gb which is my only data concern. 2 x samsung 850 in raid 0 (?) which was just software games (not too worried). Wont go into too much detail and will probably do separate post in appropriate forum but basically concern, after alot of research is how to get old system back up amd running due to constraints with moving ssds into new system. From what Incan gather my best bet is replacing dead motherboard with the same one or similar to bypass driver concerns and hope it just picks up off where it left assuming theres no deeper damage to ssd. Ssds are detected in new system but deemed unallocated, i dont want to initialise or do anything that could cause damage or wipe data. Ok, if you got his far, thanks, ive been pulling my hair out and really losing it so far. So my queries; 1) What else could I do to establish what the overall damage to old system is? Especialy to the board, its bugging me as theres no obvious signs of damage. Would it be worth buying/replacing bios chip? Is it worth taking the board itself. To someone to see if it can be repaired? Whilst the obvious answer is probably no, my next dofficulty is replacing this board. Its damn near impossible to find and comes with a ridiculous cost and only overseas. 2) Replacing the board with similar? In view of attemtping to revive existing system this appears to be my next best move? How similar do boards have to be for there to be a decent chance of this working assuming the ssd / os isnt buggered? Theres plenty of variations of asus p8z77 im just unsure on what my limitations would be and how varied, if at all bios and drivers would be. 3) would any old z77 socket 1155 board carry just the same chance? I understand that i could sily pre-load board drivers during resetup but my concern and lack of knowledge around ssd issues prevents me going forward here. Ultimately what is my best option of reviving my system? i will leave other pc for now as this isnoverwhelming, thank you Edit: 4) i havent tested old cpu in new system, if cpu was faulty could this cause damage to new system (hence why i havent tried)?

Hey guys. So, a while ago (like, two months ago), I got an ASUS P5Q-E to mess around with. The thing is, I've never been able to install an operating system on it. I go through the installation process and both Windows 7 and Windows 10 freeze while copying files and I can't get anywhere from there. Afterwards, the motherboard started freezing while scanning the sata ports and I decided to flash the bios to try to solve this problem and when I did it it just froze at the splash screen (as picture attached shows). Power button sometimes works, sometimes doesn't (specifically to turn off the motherboard) and the numpad key on the works, but LED has a strange lag. I've switched both BIOS chips' place and no result. So, basically, I'm here to ask for help because I've hit a wall and I'm unaware of how to go through it. Thanks, everyone.

My Asus P5Q motherboard wont power on. The little green light on the motherboard is lit when the PSU is on. When I press the power button the cpu fan spins for a split second, and the system turns off. The fans on the gpu do not spin. The hard drives attached to the PSU do not spin up. The CPU does not heat up. I have tried: - Two power supplies (Corsair TX650 and Cooler Master B600), I have tested the B600 in another system and it works fine. - Changing CMOS battery - Different CPU - One stick of ram - Different GPU - Nothing but the motherboard With the exact same results. Specs: Asus P5Q Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 (Celeron 440 tested as well) 4x2GB DDR2 (1x2GB tested as well) GTX 660 (Matrox G450 tested as well) Cooler Master B600 (Corsar tested as well) Cooler Master V8 Cooler

I just tought about posting this upgrade process for some lulz, sorry for my english. So like a lot of guys, I'm running an "anchient" "gaming" pc because I'm a student with no money. When Rainbow 6 Siege came out, it was the first game that really didnt run even acceptably on my setup so i needed to look into some options. My rig at the time was: ASUS P5Q Intel E8500 3.16->4.25ghz 4GB 800mhz->887mhz DDR2 AMD R270X 5xsome random HDDs 550w BeQuiet PSU Some time ago I upgraded that GPU since my friend had that lying around and I bought it for 50€. My previous GPUs were GTX260, GTX280, HD6850, GTX560Ti. I literally have paid 60€ for all of them combined since i have been able to recycle them to friends for some money. Now for the upgrades. Like a godsend my friend was helping his parents move and found his fathers old workstation PC and asked me if there is anything valuable there, to wich i kind of nodded and told him that its so old its probably trash. Turned out it was kind of a beast machine at the time and there was a QX6850 inside. You have my attention now. So obviously I asked him for the chip and he gave it to me (these are about 60€ on ebay I think?) That piece of s*it of a case is antec sonata II i think. Worst. Airfolw. Ever. (and no removable back panel so please excuse me for that rats nest.) Luckily 7 years ago when i bought this, i bought that Noctua cooler so i could overclock that E8500 and now the xtreme edition Guess wich one is the xtreme edition. After CPU upgrade i realized my storage configuration was total trash. a 500GB WD, 80GBMaxtor, 320GB samsung and WD 2½" laptop drives synced for backups and 160GB WD Raptor all old as hell and ripped from dead machines. So obviusly i ditched that Maxtor since it didnt even support AHCI, which is needed for my next upgrade. (credits for ghetto mounting storage?) Thats an Samsung 850EVO 250GB. Now I must say that converting an old windows install from HDD to SSD and changing the BIOS storage type from IDE to AHCI is a bit annoying process since windows does not support changing that after installation (the fix was easy when I found some forum thread for it) Now my peripherals are quite new since I broke my orange G15 by spilling coffee on it and I was so mad i went and bought this Razer Blackwidow, which is quite good, tough I think i should have bought the G710+ As for the mouse, I was using the Logitech MX518 which was great for its time and for the ergonomics but it was old and I got a deal on cyber monday for Mionix NAOS 8200 for like 40€. Headphones were a bit hilarious story since my mother vacuumed my old headset (Crative Fatal1ty :s) while I was visiting Luckily my friend had these AKG K272HD headphones with broken cable and gave them to me so i could easily fix it by cutting 15cm from the cable and soldering it back. Yesterday i got this old desklamp for my mic (Blue Snowball) stand Yes that coaster is an intel heatsink OC was necessary to achieve playable framerates so I overclocked the CPU and GPU and here are the current stable overclocks: CPU is overvolted, multiplier changed and FSB freq has been upped a bit to achieve the best overclock possible. Someone on the interwebs was saying that this chip would only go to 3600mhz by changing the multiplier but I found out that it's better to keep the multilplier a bit lower, upping the FSB and lowering the DDR2 strap a bit to achieve a bit higher stable OC. GPU is just trial and error. Someone told me that this asus R9 270X would go to 1200mhz but mine is not stable above 1152mhz. Memory would overclock a bit tough to 1500mhz. Temps were a bit high in this setup and this case has 1 fan slot so i had to make some haxoring to the case I added some cardboard to prevent air from just circulating around the fan. (The cardboard was appropriately from a salt box for all the saltiness) Also to the back to prevent dust Soo this is the setup I use to play R6Siege and stuff. If only I could find some 800mhz DDR2 for reasonable price I would be golden for a year or so. Hopefully someone finds this interesting and decides to upgrade their old computer since its not that hard or expensive. If not I just wasted too much time writing this

Howdy. Can you please give me some advice about my motherboard? I'm using the Asus P5Q ; http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P5Q/ And my power supply is the CX600M by Corsair As you can see via the Asus link, the 24pin motherboard power is on the left hand side of the damn motherboard. This means I have to put the 24 pin cable all the way across the motherboard in order to give it power, and it looks really messy through my case side panel window. I was wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem and maybe resolved it. I tried routing the 24 pin cable from the top of the mobo down but it's too short. So the cable goes from the right side to the left side of the motherboard into the connector making a mess. Please, help! Thanks.
