1st of all,sorry if this topic is already posted..so many post,i might miss it

just want to get some opinion from the oc old timers and user of these 2 boards..

the most basic 1,performance in stock voltage,stock fsb..how issit?
realiability? which 1 can withstand the volts that u pumped through it better?
which 1 will perform better in oc?
which 1 will provide u with more overclocking option?
what about performance of stock cooling for the chipset?
compatibility with most aftermarket hsf/wb?

im currently puzzled by this 2 boards..1 comes with ddr3..hmm hmm.gif but the others are proven to serve as a good oc mobo..(luv my p965infinity) hope u guys can help me out~ thumbup.gif

ok then, if u can master the dfi bios choose the DK P45 T2RS plus. The different that i notice when oc is , like you wan to achieve 6xx + fsb in ddr3 mobo, even a cheap ddr1333 will do the job, but change to a ddr2 mobo, u wan achieve 6xx fsb , u need to run 1:1 fsb:dram, u will need a good overclocking ability ddr2 ram or else your ram will be bottleneck when oc.
And the ddr2 and ddr3 in p45 platform the gain is not noticeable, unless u run benchmark. in theory, the ddr3 bandwidth will higher thn ddr2 , but u need high fsb to c the different in intel core 2 platform

corrent me if i am wrong , thank you.

so true..thats the main reason y i cannot achieve higher clocks b4..ram bottleneck..evn with good ram like corsair dominator,its hard to push the ram..evn tried extreme voltage to achieve 150% oc on e2140...

nice feedback rclxms.gif

keep it coming guys! have to make my mind on which to buy by this week icon_rolleyes.gif

corsair dominator early batch which use micron chip is high overclock abiliy, if u wan a pair good oc ram u can consider the team xtreem series ddr2 1066, which using d9gkx chip to made. but only in 2x1gb.

team xtreem? i got 2 of 2*1G of these ram with me..both fried...but yes,its true that these ram can give u higher clocks but it cant withstand d heat when u keep yr pc on for 24 hrs.thats y i try dominator based on the statement "cheaper,lower quality"

anyway,any readers that is specialized in dfi mobo? just WTA,whats the diff between the series in dfi boards? i mean DK,JR and such..T2RS oso got DK and JR series rite?

Rams? PSU? Any screenies to share? wink.gif

want to see my screenies ar?
dun need ar..running on stock nly blush.gif ..windows load so damn slow
currently using infinity p965 but that mobo got a lot of probs..bios or hardware may corrupt ady..ram setting cannot be changed,fsb higher than 350 wont boot.dun think its the ram that cause the bottleneck cz rite now using corsair dominator 1g nly.the other 1 are dead dunno why.n last time,this board fried my team xtreem ram. thats y im looking 4 new mobo..might get my hands on p45 t2rs by this week brows.gif

my previous experience with dfi..choosy mobo..some psu hav trouble with with dfi board..and ram oso..not all can be run straight out of the box.sumtimes had to put on standard ram,change some setting then can only put in the performance ram..is this mobo faced the same problem?
