nice choice..
that is one hell expensive mobo
plus do u really need those SLi?

if u really want to utilize SLi, then this board is a good choice
becoz u can run both card at fully 16x

if u really want to utlize the SLi feature, better get the motherboard which is NF590 since its support fully 16x SLi on each slot, better than cheapo SLi mobo that can only support 8x SLi..
so i think u need to increase ur budget a little..
either Abit Fatility, TForce 590SLi or DFi LanParty 590 SLi..

im sure u enabled the CnQ feature
disable it, and ur clock will become normal (1.9GHz)

im not sure if ur BIOS setting is same with my TForce 570U, but perhaps u can change it in the BIOS..go to Advanced Chipset Features and disable the CnQ feature

DFI INFINITY CFX3200-M2/G

dont ask for availability ask im not a representative of any shops
no such motherboard in the pricelist..
only ATE that bring the TForce 590SLi..last time they brought Fatility as well..
about the crossfire mobo, try search at Trade Zone..im sure there is a bulk for DFI..

nice result for 1T timing..change it to 2T if u want to go further
plus Brisbane can be pushed more..do u use the Automatic OC Engine?

yes, by 2T u can push even more..
but if u feell wanna OC until the highest u can go for 1T command rate, just go for it..
(dont forget to upload the SuperPI 1M and 32M here)

well, the vdimm is just simple..
lowest vdimm for TForce is 1.95v if im not mistaken..
i assume ur ram is value, so i suggest the max vdimm u can apply for ur ram is 2.2v..
if wanna higher, better get urself a ram cooler..

and besides changing the command rate from 1T to 2T, u can also play with timing and divider..loose the timings and lower the divider to go further

crash? perhaps not enuff voltage? but since u use Brisbane, maybe u need to pump just vdimm..
increase ur vdimm first, if still crash then lower the divider (DDR533 or DDR400) and loose the timing (i.e. 4-5-5-15 @ 5-5-5-15)

hey ^666^, this might be a little off topic but can u post the close-up picture for the setup of ur Gemini? i want too see how it can be used to cool off the ram..
our mobo is almost same anyway..

how much is the vcore? perhaps u need to pump a little bit more..
and have u changed the command rate to 2T?

i heard 3.0GHz is quite easy for Brisbane..
why dun u break the boundary by surpassing it..maybe 3.2GHz or 3.3GHz
of course, need a good combination of mobo, ram and cooling system as well

anyway, good luck then..
dun forget to paste the screenshot here, together with Orthos and SuperPI 32M

guys, did AMD slash their price?
i just saw X2 3600 Brisbane at Garage Sale (Robyncom) for only RM205 instead of RM245 before..

just came back from lowyat
took my TForce 570U that just came back from RMA..
and bought a new retail AMD X2 3600 Brisbane for only RM203

currently at 2.8GHz 1.275v DDR930 4-4-4-12 2T 2.1vdimm
will play more later..the target is 3.2GHz

i bought at Robyncom Imbi Plaza..
just saw their thread at Garage Sales yesterday stated that the price is only RM205..
tried bargain till RM200, but they cant afford to give it, so they gave me RM203 instead...jadi la

scouted at lyp, the price is still RM230 and must be bundled together with motherboard...if not, need to add RM10 (some shops)..

easy? perhaps becoz im using D9?

please read the answer above

uhm..guys...i got a serious problem here..

actually the processor i bought got some bent pins..but i managed to insert into the socket..
after that, i reformat my pc, just wanna feel the new windows while overclocking..

but then, the problem came one after another..

here are some symptoms;

- BSOD (even at default clock and doing nothing)
- my antivirus suddenly shut off by itself (the red notification at the taskbar appear)
- suddenly cannot connect to the internet, or simply said got some error at LAN port (if i click at the LAN icon on Network Connection, the message "an error occurred...." popped out
- cannot paste and send to
- suddenly the pc will be slow like hell..the program will be opened 30 seconds after i double-clicked it
- the processor name didnt appear at System Properties, only the rams. but it stated at CPUZ, but like i said, 30 seconds after double-clicked
- window will suddenly hang/lag or not responding, require me tu push the reset/shut down button
- both message about Window Service 32 (something lidat lar) and shutdown countdown timer popped out almost 2~3 times in a row (this is the most annoying part)

er..i guess thats it..perhaps got summore..
anyway im on my sis's lappy right now..that pc cannot surf the internet..

so anyone can help me find the culprit? is it becoz of motherboard or the problem might be related to the bent pin that i just straightened before?

thanks

i discussed with goldfries last night, and he said the bent part shouldnt be any problem..

well, i guess it was my mistake to connect to the internet (even for a while) without installing the AV and Firewall first..this might be a major cause, even i didnt expect it would be this much and i never encountered such problem before..

after reformatted last night, i install all the necessary drivers and softwares first without plug-in the network cable..after i installed and updated my AVG and Ad-Aware (downloaded the definitions at my other PC), here i am

i hope no more problem after this..very tired

in fact, if the bent pin is the cause, why would the effects occurred right after i connected to the internet
so its a big possibility that the problem might came from virus/malware..

anyway thanks for the opinion guys..i feel happy + tired after going thru this..
so ill continue my overclocking project after i finished my lunch..

cis..i thought mine was the cheapest one..how come i didnt check properly yesterday
uhm..not much difference anyway..RM199 with RM203..boleh la tu..

here comes another 3GHz Brisbane user

at first was using 1.375v, but then the BSOD occurred after i passed the SuperPI 1M



so i pumped 1.4v, and 2.1vdimm, and below are the screenshot



anyway soulfly, please update my profile;
