    Default Sabertooth x58 probe II

    I saw in your review of the sabertooth x58, your probe II displays the vdram.

    My new sabertooth probe II does not, even tried earlier versions of asus probe.

    Is there some thing I can do to see the vdram?
    (or did you get a special board for the review?)

    speccy shows it at 1.74 or 1.752, no matter what I change in bios.

    I have been getting kernel error 41 after 6 weeks of normal operation.
    Did RMA the motherboard and it came back as "nothing to fix"
    I am now using my lowend gtx240 for a few days to see if the gtx590 is the kernel problem.

    thanking you

    Maybe you need a BIOS update. If you update your BIOS make sure all settings are at default.

    yes I have newest bios, and newest probe II,
    it only has vcore and the 3 rails. no vdram.

    the asus forum had no answer for me, so i thought i would ask you all,
    as you reviwed board, and had an image with vdram.

    Maybe they eliminated that adjustment in the newest BIOS. I wouldn't' think it makes a difference anyhow. Do you have C1E, turbo and all power saving features disabled?

    what do you mean Vdram?

    AI probe doesn't monitoring video ram. This utility only monitoring motherboard and if the board doesn't have build-in sensor for certain componment then the software won't show it.

    I mean the IMC as shown in the probe II image in the pureoc sabertooth review.

    http://www.pureoverclock.com/review.php?id=1154&page=9

    as for the kernel power error
    I did turn off turbo, c1e, set mem to lower, ran memtest on individual sticks,
    and had it happen in safe mode.

    I found the quick connect for the case wires not all that firm so I removed it and plugged them directly, then discoverd just touching the 24pin connector it would happen, so I squeeed the green wire female to be a tighter fit. I plan to run my lower power gpu for a while and if I get no errors, put back in the gtx590.
