i heard this mobo is not compatible with ES version is that true?

You forgot to link BIOS 411. Stable BIOs so far but can't OC it yet since I don't have D9's with me. So far on Elpida's boot stable at 400Mhz

erm. . is 411 the latest stable bios? not beta arr?

i'm still a long way to go to fully unleash the potential of this board..
haven't get proc and ram yet.. still on budget parts..

for proc.. i know i'm getting e6300 la.. but ram.. no idea which one's the best buy..

Btw, hit 3.8ghz on pentium D 920 on stock cooling and stock voltage.. not stable though.. died after 20 mins of orthos.

411 seems stable so far. Currently playing with Elpida's so trying to get the best bandwidth timings even at 333Mhz. Will push up slowly later. Older Elpida's aren't as high flyers as nowadays

okie, this is weird.. my proc fan keeps revving up.. even though temp is around 45-50C. It revs up, den slows down, den rev up again.. @.@ any idea why arr? smart guardian shows the fan rev from 2.2k RPM to 3.0k RPM over and over again.

btw, the system is idle.. no load being placed on proc.

i wan to ask....wats the diff of this R25 and my fren's R60...



i want to knoe...wat is included in this DFI box?just wan to make sure...

and i noticed some differences between the one that hv been reviewed and retail version...

Box just include
-Manual Book
-CD
-IDE & Floppy Cable each 1
-Sata cable 2 and Sata Power Converter 1

and mine also R60

the one shown in the pic is an engineering sample. note the lack of heatsink on the southbridge and liquid caps used. I guess they must've been using a cheaper/test PWM.

Added on April 19, 2007, 10:07 pmbtw, dunno u guys notice or not.. most of the components are solder senget one.. lol.

the one in the pic is 965 not 965-s
its a cheaper version of 965-s la...

izzit 400Mhz x9 or x10 stable 24/7??
how bout BIOS menu, nice?

ok this PIC is Infinity 965-S


and this is Infinity 965

so,based on the box...still same right?

the differences of both just the p965-s is fully solid capacitors

ok I96PD418 bios up

any shops selling this now?

Hi,AceCombat here,wanna share with u guys here regarding the potential of the Infinity dark power.A screenie will be uploaded.

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo L632B444 @ 3.61GHz,vcore 1.5
Cooling: Thermaltake Big Typhoon VX and stock NB cooler.
TIM: Arctic Cooling MX-1
Motherboard: DFi Infinity 965-S Dark Power Rev C2
Ram: Kingston Value Ram D9GMH 2x1GB @ CL4 @ stock voltage
PSU: Enermax FMA II Dxx 535W SLi ready
Graphic Card: Forsa 8800GTS 640MB
HDD: WD Raptor 74.3GB & Barracuda 7200.9 80GB

SuperPi,CPU-Z and ITE Smart Guardian included in screenie.

Thanks for sharing

Dang nice clocks. You're lucky using D9's. Can't seem to stabilise mine on Elpida's. Currently doing 8*333 instead stock volts but adjusted timings

EDIT: BTW, would appereciate if you guys posted results including which BIOS you're using. Thanks

i'm using original bios,never update anything,cause i heard from shawty said that the newer bios got a bit problem.

Pls take note:
this mobo got some compatiblity problem with ES processor and some D9 chipset ram.
try ur luck,mine one got no problem with GMH chipset.

and one thing,i'm using air cooling only....the temperature is quite hot.....

u want stable clock or suicide shot clock??? i m currently at 3.2ghz at 1.34v

my suicide shot speed was 3.93, 1,74v on air cooling
check my sig for the spi 1m result

well,cute overclocker,what is the temp when u hit 3.93 with vcore of 1.74 on air cooling?hehew.....

i cant futher then 2.8G of my e6300 Q703A015 T_T
even i put +3v also cant sad proc

using 3-26 original bios

huh?u sure?
how come like that?
E6300 is one of the best overclockable proc....
anyway,i used many units of e63 before,all of them can simply go beyond 3.0GHz wor....with chapalang mobo

dunno leh try tweaking.... see

Damn.
Everyone is showing off their infinity.

Tunggu lar aku dapat PSU baru ngan e6600 retail nanti.
Huh!

Buat aku jeles je.

let u know my latest price 22 april

wakaka.....padan muka bro shawty!we're all faster than u to show off our rig!!!!
haha.....

a little improvement today

eh... nice clocks...
but again be wary of running high v on ure mcps

walao....nearly 4Gz.....


from me..?

yup..tat proc got it from u

hehe...
stable run...? or just run for superPI...
woww...80c...
very regret for my current board....sad...
waiting for new stuff launch...

i didnt even dare to check the temp.... just 1m spi, screen shot ciao!
hehe

guys may i know what is going to my CPU speed ?

Sissandra show mutipler x7
Core Temp show x7
but cpu-z show x6

Me too. Can't show you all my Infinity rig.

Still in the process of building my first C2D rig.
Already got the mobo and ordered Super Talent RAM from sHawTY.
Hopefully after 22 April will have good news and can grab myself a c2d processor.

haha, me 3. now waiting for proc and rams from shawty

wei, ram bila sampai???

well,taxidoor,i faced the problem like u too,looks like the cpu-z is not reading the multiplier correctly....

and coolice,i got a qwuestion to ask u,hope u dont mind....
u hitting 4.0Ghz while i hitting 3.6GHz,why there is no big different in the superpi 1M?

and one thing,i tested before,a super hot processor really process slower than lower speed but cool processor.

2m vs 4mb ..look at my proc first

wah.....this really make a big different ah?

aboh then someone else still expect my e64 can hit 12s
anyway..wat AceCombat might true..
my latest superpi faster than previous at lower clock speed and vcore as well as temp(not much..XD)

So, can this be said that E6420 with 4MB L2 cache definitely faster than E6400 with only 2Mb L2 cache.

yes..definitely..to compensate the 2mb diffences in superpi,it need 300-400mhz

hehe im will get 6320 or 6420 soon hehe waiting my new prie ler hand icthy

Either Thursday or Friday next week.

Some good news:
I just bought one unit of E6420 today at LYP, and got it at supercheap price of RM650

Don't compare the price with those that bulk la, offcourse they are cheaper.

But then, that's the cheapest price at LYP.
Other shops are selling it RM675 the lowest.

Now, waiting for my rams and new psu to power up my system.

what batch u got shawty? Q7xxAxxx ?

Batch:
L644G466

Is it good?

I'm still not sure whether to get a E6420 or E6600 now.




You bought E6420, I thought you gonna get a yourself an E6600.

Is it this processor can oc to the same performance as E6600?

hi can i know what software u ugys use to test the system stability??? orthos or OCCT??? i found out that when i run my OCCT my mobo will give some weird some..... orthos no problem....do u guys realise that??? and btw for orthos.... u guys use gromac test or small FFTs to test the proc stability????

At the first place, yes i wanted to buy the e6600.
But then, when i think it over, i just want to reach 3.2GHz ler.

That's why i just choose e6420.
E6420 can reach 3.2GHz easily on stock vcore.

Hi guys, just got my DFI mobo earlier today. Waiting for teh RAMs from shawty and will grab teh CPU + PSU and GPU (R600 where are you....) later on.
This mobo shouldn't have any issues with the Silverstone Strider ST56F PSU right ?
Coz i read a review of the DFI not booting with a 850W silverstone.

Anyway, I'm so anxious to get this baby running !
