ddr1000 @ 4-4-4-16! great ram u got there~! but maybe now they're waiting for new mobo

updated:

was cleaning my rack and found some old fans unused. So i hook a 'turtle' uv coolermaster 80mm fan beside the gfx to provide some airflow at my hot x1900xtx and maybe to my northbridge as well..

then i put a fast speed small AMD athlon barton fan on top of the heatsink at the mosfet (look at top left of my mobo)

and i put a nice blue led gigabyte fan just behind my x1900xtx to cool down the voltage regulator which is idling at 60c ++ ..

dunno whether these fan does help or not but it's better than let them lay around inside my closet

aha btw, i just broke PI 1m 15secs with my E6600 @ 3.29ghz. short 1fsb to make it 3.3ghz.. wrong calculation

@ frank_fusion : nope..

@ gengstapo : why dont u push ur e6300 more?

and for those who r interested with E6400 week 23 plz let me know.and i'm going to sell my DQ6 as well.. enuff testing already. 367fsb on 4mb conroe is among the best result for 965 mobos.

nope. E6600 needs lots of voltage, more than E6300 or E6400 do..

and i believe the prob is ur board.. send ur processor to any forumer here to test or go buy other board

ur ds3 is a gem.. so rare people got like urs

i also used CVS before, remember? =D btw yes might be ur ram that holding ur oc but raymond ds3 is definitely a gem.. where can u find a 965 board that can do 420fsb with e6600 stepping 6? it's not easy

mine now at 367 is also consider good alredi, 420 is definitely superb!

latest update:

382x9

mine is not 1.213v it's sthing wrong with cpuz, showing that vcore no matter what i set in bios.. in bios i set to 1.45vcore.

btw, 3d application is sthing else, if u wanna find max stable clockspeed for 24/7 then u need to test both stresstest (for eg. dual prime) and 3d benchies (for eg. loops of 3dmark03)

if both has no problem, then i believe u wont have any problem either in gaming or in heavy multitasking

nice fsb jian_yi,

hmm do u oc in bios from 266 up till 515?

and do u mod ur board?

bcoz i've tried few boards (ds4, dq6, ds3, biostar 965p deluxe, & p5b deluxe) already and with my E6600 most of them are stuck around 460fsb..

rite now i have 3 boards lying in my room... ds3, biostar 965p deluxe and asus p5b deluxe.. one of them is mine, the other 2 are not.

ds3 : RM550, a simply good board. i bet everyone here knows bout it.

biostar 965p deluxe : RM500, a very good ocing board, with this board, i manage to hit the highest fsb with my E6600 at 9x multiplier. and clock to clock it is faster than the other 2 boards. has good features such as power & reset button on the board (like dfi lanparty), simple bios..

asus p5b deluxe wifi edition : RM970, almost identical to my previous DQ6. so far it has few issues. 0502 the ram timing become x-7-7-23 for some memory, while 0507 has divider issue for some memory. has stability problem between 360fsb till 400fsb.. but beyond that can easily do stability test. rich of features, perfectly fit its rm1000 price.

based on my experience, if u like oc so much, it's worth to try the biostar. it might be 'biostar', but it is one of the best c2d board i ever have.. and it is the cheapest

yeah the atx power location is the worst thing ever!

the divider issue means with some ram u cant use divider.. u can use 1:1 without any problem


i believe lanparty c2d will price around SLI DR/expert/venus/cfx3200 price which is around rm900.


r u using bios f4? with that bios, the normal vcore is 1.425v, not 1.325v.. so if u wanna use stock vcore (1.325) u need to set it manually in bios.

well thats good then.. bcoz last time i managed to hit 3.2ghz with E6400 & ds3 with f4 bios with everything at auto/normal but everyone at xs were saying that f4 bios set the vcore automatically to 1.425v

it's because 975x mobo is too hard to get.. except for MSI powerup edition which is cost around rm8xx.

basically most of 975x board is better for conroe in OC, but i believe 965 bios is become mature n mature and people begin to hit higher fsb than 975 board..

i bought p5b deluxe wi fi edition @ rm990

ds3 is good, but people prefer 975 board if they r using conroe (4mb c2d)

bcoz most earlier 965 board has problem reaching higher fsb with that processors.

in terms of daily use, or normal ocing, 965 does the job well enuff

sorry double post. connection error

so far, the result and bios option is quite dissappointing..

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showth...t=113639&page=3

the hidden bios has appear to few people but most of them appear only once... i dunno why..
btw, i know this is not the thread for it but anyone who looking for 2nd hand gigabyte ds3 plz let me know. i'm selling mine @ cheap price(few weeks old only!).. tQ

i just removed my asus p5b heatpipe and replace with jingting forcetake..

i bought the asus at rm990.. around that .. i also forgot already.. too many time change hardware huhu..

rite now i dont put any cooler on the mosfet.. i'm sure the mosfet can live happily on its own, unless i'm planning to use high voltage which i never do..

OT// and i just replied ur pm.. hehe

austin, remysix is using orthos beta, which is sp2004 but for dual core cpu

it failed once u overvolt ur ram.. thats nothing serious. same like manufacturer saying overclocking voids warranty, but u still oc it heheh
