hi guys,
i will be getting an i7 860 + msi gd65 soon. i would like to ask the gd65 owners; can this mobo runs at 2000mhz DDR? or should i just settle with a 1600mhz ram? input appreciated. thanks.

im using 16oomhz ram only i think can run 2000mhz ram but just incase it wouldnt be harm to take a side of caution.Just GOOGLE!!! hehe...

thanks.
lyn member dblooi posted Gskill review using gd65. it could run at 2200mhz!

those kit will cost u an arm and a leg.

iinm RM700++ for it.

last time my crucial ballistix 2x1gb DDR2 800 also costs RM780.
but me a family man now, no more willing to spend 700+ for rams now.

well get those team xtreem 2000mhz came out already and the price much cheaper i think..better timing also

at least it's cheaper if compared to Corsair Dominator GT or GTX series

definately bro.those kitt just darn too pricey.WTH they put inside anyway platinum or gold maybe? anyone using venomous?is it good?still waiting for the guys to do some HS comparison for i5 and i7.

anyway just tweak my oc today for better temperature but i have to sacrifice 40mhz on my ram but gain higher clock and FSB.from 1440mhz to 1400mhz same timing cl 6 7 6 20.from 3.61ghz to 3.685ghz.Vcore from 1.265v to 1.226v kill 2c of my FLoad temperature at 75% fan speed.just cant tolerate 100% fan noise bloody annoying.

what cooler are u using bro. imo, venomous is overpriced.

RAM price is still soaring with recent 6GB Team Elite kits at RM900-1000 range if I'm not mistaken. Not the best time to spend a lot on them

im using corsair h50 with push and pull fan..single fan config just arent enuff...

i like the h50 it doesnt strain ur mobo pcb.highend air cooler are just bloody heavy.well but then air cooler will last u long then the h50 u just need to change the fan only...

still waiting someone to post i7 860 doing 4ghz stable on primed..wanna know their temperature...

Tr to off HT,it help a lot

as for me no point buying an i7 if i cant use all the goodness of i7.its yummy for my converting files

and yeah i knew already turning of HT will considerably decrease ur temp.anyway thnx for the advice fren.i think i'll let it stay ENABLE

all the sifus out there, any motherboard recommendations for overclocking i3 530 ?

well MSI CD53 not bad for its features but if ur on a budget MSI E33(im not sure the exact model) retails less than rm350.as for MSI CD 53 its around rm450.as for gigabyte motherboard AFAIK it tends to overvolt ur processor a bit giving u more stability but the side effects ur processor will be extra HOT.but for i3 it has a low vcore pair with a good cooler u can achieved 4ghz with nice temperature.im using i7 860 running 4ghz on it will be an egg boiler.temperature reaching 80+c.HOT IMO

hey guys, i've got a question with regards to the P55 architecture.

Since the PCI-E controller in embedded in the processor which only has 16x lanes bandwidth, obviously it will max out the lanes in 1 or 2 cards configurations; 16x/0x or 8x/8x. My question is, could a 3rd card be able to run as physx? takes MSI GD65 for example, it has a physical open ended 4x PCIE slot, can it be used as a physx card while the other 2 main PCIE is being used?

looking at the diagram below, the P55 Express Chipset has 8x PCI Express x1. Obviously we cannot utilize all 8 lanes provided by the P55 as mATX board only has 7 slots (2 of which is connected to the CPU directly). Assuming i dont have any other devices connected, can the 8 lanes be dedicated to 1 pcie 4x slot as physx?

what i wanted to achieve is to run 2x4890 + 1x phyx on MSI GD65. achievable?

comments appreciated.

anyone using MSI GD65?does ur Vore pump up more than u set at bios during Prime95?i've set my Vcore to 1.226v but during prime95 it shot up to 1.56v.
anyone can explain to me.thnx in advance.

finally 4ghz success. but with ht disable. should be stable if ht on with the same vcore but temp surely not ok btw vcore is quite on the high side but still ok for me
