Inital Thoughts good mobo but a lot of tweaking neaded.
There is still a strap problem as the older bios is better at it

I had to use the newer bios as i am running Raid 0+1 and only the new bios worked with it.

Also Arctic cooling MX2 rocks here... IDLE vs LOAD difference is only 7C when before was like 13C..

cool!!

This is damn high in synch scores!! for 1000mhz CL4 ... beats the 680 mobo
Also passed OCCT 1 hour

Pass to run 24/7 at 4ghz
ambient temp around 28-30C throughout the day. no aircon in the case benching.

Seriously for X6800 B2 stepping to be solid at 500fsb on passive cooling mobo ..
Is seriously impressive

Will be posting maybe 2 more procs within the next few days.
Hopefully by then a new bios comes out.

sishh damn tired leh to get the sub timings correct

Pros:
1.CPU temp difference with 680chipset around 6-7C idle and load around 12C but take note the 680 was using MX1 while with the X38 was with MX2
2.Insane Superpi score.
3.No problem with any type of rams but kindda sad that my new Geil rams failed memtest and had to send back to RMA.
4.Insane amount of choice for those who love rams tweaking.

Cons:
1.A lot of Overvolts and undervolts on bios set voltages.
2.Freaking Immature bios as the straps are faulty to a point
3.Raid 0+1 was a nightmare to get it working.
4.Intel Matrix Storage Program is buggy

Will be getting the bigwater 760i to cool this northbridge if it goes higher than 50C. Till then dont see any reason to cool the Northbridge.

Will post some graphic card benchies once i go off raid.Everytime getting ide det errors even at stock mhz/voltages ..think it was a bad idea running raid 10 on this so soon

Made Mistake by selling the proc so fast. .. should have done some aquamark benchies
the following will show

Aquamark 3 scores
[attachmentid=312433][attachmentid=312435]

The straps were buggy as it didnt allow me to do 1:1. and only allowed a 1067mhz which was also buggy... it did pass 32m and 1m but i think its a false result as it failed orthos prime 1 hour but passed 30mins. Will get det ram error.Will post it in a minute.. trying to get it right still.

Decided to post later some 3dmark 3.6ghz score since at 400 the straps were fine at 1067 CL4
You are going to see why this mobo is so good with the CPU scores. Its just insane how fast this mobo is.
Also note this proc was around 5-7C cooler compared to the X6800 above for voltage to voltage

Currently pissed off i didnt run some Graphic Card Benchies for the X6800 as i was prep for the Quad for GPU benchies

My rams dont run well above 1100mhz at cl4 or even cl5 without some insane vdimm...

Hmm had to change the rams to more extreme rams. My Team Xtreem PC2-6400 Cl3's 1x2gb.
This because this rams can do nearly 890 Cl3's and up to 1200 cl4's with ease. Will post some insane ram overclocking with the e6850 on third setup with the rams to give better sandra scores.

Ok from what we can see here
Pros:
1.This mobo rocks on 3dmark CPU scores and also some on sm2.0 and sm3.0
2.It really works best at 1:1 ratios with low latencies

Cons:
1.Superpi 32m kinnda slow compared to some highend P35

y i did 3.56?? was because later i was going to up the multi to get 4.05ghz
also i didnt bother to reduce the vcore as i knew it will definately work at those voltages. Optimum vcore should be around 1.4-1.42v.

y this 5 benchies??
3dmark05 would show u gpu opengl performance
aquamark will show u the rams,cpu,gpu on opengl performance
3dmark06 would show u cpu scores/sm3.0 scores
Superpi 1m will show u the tight latencies on this
Superpi 32m will show u the latencies performance on long run PS can use sandra latencies test for this.

Will try again the 4ghz run as i am having problems with the GTL.
It can pass superpi 1m/32m but will fail 3dmark06 cpu test.

Ps also the reason no Asus PC Probe 2 or core temp replacement as when i plugged in the q6600 it just stopped working or crashes ramdomly

most x38 boards are still hampered by immature bios...

what do u mean by the straps???? Cerrtain straps cant be use on the 0504 bios??? mind to tell which strap is not workable on the new bios??? seeing ppl talking about it in forums seems like the 266 strap is not working right as they cant hit high fsb with the new bios but the old bios can...

Update: - Weird that nobody wants this proc ...kekeke

Decided on running 515x7 24/7
failed to do 4ghz 24/7
its like i cannot go pass it on air/water

definately not a heat prob.. checked, counterchecked and triple checked

sourcing for a new proc to confirm this

Orthos Graph Data
[attachmentid=316930][attachmentid=316928][attachmentid=316932]



take note the crazy temps drop is because of two things

1. Coolit Freezone has a temp control that will control condensation.. it will go up later cause the coolit will reduce the power supplied to tec
2. E6850 has some kind of enchance halt rubbish that reduces its its power consumption by 50 watts compared to any b3 when its idle

This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 24 2007, 04:46 PM

getting mine very very soon hope its working fine for me
i heard ppl say on 0401 the 1333 (1:2) divider is not working izzit true??? ~_~

maybe cuz this X38 chipset was designed for DDR3 ground up..

is there any big vdrop on this board?

hows this board vs the blitz formula? is x38 ddr2 performs better then p35 ddr2?

nah vdroop is kindda small around 0.01v at stock

---

Added on October 17, 2007, 6:40 pmnot sure the blitz cause never had a chance to get it

but my p35 foxconn mars still pawn this mobo but take note that mobo i had was a heavily modded mobo used in a ram tech labs

This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 17 2007, 06:40 PM

according to our fellowship DaRkSyThE, x38 better than p35

dunno for real or what

cooler.... dude the 500fsb was only possible by this mobo so far
965p couldnt. p35 couldnt and the 680 could but had hard time stablizing it with so little northbridge voltages on the gigabyte

take it like this
when p35 came out it was pawned by the commando

then later with new revisions bios for the p5k deluxe it pawned everything
then came the premium and ultimately the blitz

which rulez today
this mobo just needs new revisions
heck u should see the 3dmark cpu scores are amazing... example on 3ghz 333x9 used to get 2660 on my 680 and foxconn
on this getting like 2800..kekeke

just look at the 1000mhz CL4 scores... try to reach them for sandra.. just try... not easy.. but this mobo did it..
willing to bet once they stabilize the bios straps it will be 9k already...

also how many boards here or ppl here can claim to have a 4ghz 24/7 running in the case working comp at only 1.59/1.6v only
maybe with the p5k premium possible..
even the foxconn i couldnt get those temps

all this at ambient temps of 28/30 no aircond

the issue now is straps

buyers beware if ure rams are not able to hit atleast 1100 to 1200 easily then ure going to have a freaking hard time with this mobo

This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 18 2007, 12:59 PM

err actually 965p can hit 500FSB la taikor

i remember my commando can do it lastime.. 500 x7(c2d e6600)

it can run PI but failed orthos

ps: when my pc up later, i try looking for any screenie if avail

This post has been edited by gengstapo: Oct 17 2007, 06:59 PM

dude my e6600 also can

google

and post here
all the X6800 that hit 500fsb on stock mobos... ure gonna find that list kindda small..kekeke almost non existent

heck actually mine went to 570fsb kekek when i first tried

fluke

hmm i didnt try to stabalize above 500 cause to do 500 was easy
u know y right
for extreme procs they dont really have sweet multis
usually u can use all the multis and keep increasing the multis once u stabalize ure rams and mobo

if buy 1066 ram can it be better? better then 667 and 800?

no it depends how ure rams are rated.

as i said the straps currently are lousy and more better for high mhz high latency rams.

mainly the D9GKX rather the D9GMH which concentrates on tight latencies..

updated some QD benchies...

damn regreted didnt do any gpu benchies on the C2d.. would have atleast gone 220k on aqua and would have beaten this score for the quad core..

again this is inside the case

@ superly.
most dividers on the 0401 bios works actually compared to the 0501.
the 5:6 divider which is most common used can work on the 0401, but works not too well on the 0501

dude also i have problems on 4:5 which almost non-existent...

hmm took out some old team ddr2 rams to do some comparison...

so far dude one thing is certain

this mobo cpu is freaking fast.

on 3dmark 3.6 at 3.6ghz qd score already 5700!!
compare to the lyn 3dmark champion pathethic score of 5519 score..(where is the spit smiley??..gee facebook cool on this part... would have hadouken that score)

but gee dude if i think if i give u my GPu and with that insane sandra u told me u will be flying on aqua scores..kekek

issh damn frust with this mobo on quad core.
getting ram errors like nobody business since its like always it will work with 1 or 2 straps and then have to try each one and tweak it till i get one thats stable...

sishh cant beleive i spent already nearly 12 hours with qd and havent finish

---

Added on October 18, 2007, 1:22 amok whipped out some team rams...

geee getting better


This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 18 2007, 01:22 AM

bro, ur Quad benchies are acheived using waht sort of cooling? water?

pretty impressive overclock considering the short period of time u tinker with it...

dude i havent even posted all the benchies
kekek already beat that top benchies
all done with coolitfreezone

cool part this is to achieve a 24/7 clock that i can always repeat
so doing it inside the case with no aircon just the fan and me typing on a lappie.


now using a different rams.. was a bit scared since this rams killed or was killed by my 680 mobo.

but what the heck...

next benchies will be 445x7 and hopefully 445x7
beat a lot of ppls benchmarks kekek with 3dmark on this mobo..

its freaking fast. stay tuned

coolitfreezone....nice cooler, i wonder the same results can be achieved using high-end air cooler....

keep it up, hope u can top those kakis at XS...

no dude those guys are nuts with phase etc.

actually would be good that team KOC actually produced reproduceable results and do more gpu benching
cine benching or pcmark benching .

Darkscythe is so right .. this mobo rocks!!

to hit high FSB and OC with this baby u need extreme cooling bro. my e6600 can hit 545mhz FSB anytime (and i have a very sucky batch). I can even game for hours at 4.3ghz. SP 1M was 11.6s.

Wish i have a X38 to test under Cascade Come come, someone pass me a X38.

This post has been edited by extremeocer: Oct 18 2007, 02:40 AM

again.. dunno y i am repeating my self so many times

ITS IS RARE FOR A X6800 to hit 500fsb and above unless u do some mod on the mobo or some extreme cooling

X6800 not e6600

google is a powerful tool
again post all the x6800 that hit 500fsb on unmoded mobo's and cooled by air or wc

post the links here

till then SHUTUP and accept it as a godly fact

hmm ok failed to do a 4ghz on a quad.
not because of voltage but couldnt stabalize the GTL's hmm need to learn more on this and find another fsb to aim for
was hoping for 445x9 since 445x8 on rams cl3's were like godly results

oh well.

so far on all the mobos i tried x38 was the only one that was stable.


This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 18 2007, 03:30 AM

I never said that air or water. I pointed out that need sub-zero cooling to hit 500fsb or above with x6800. AND there are people doing 500fsb and above with x6800.

Hmmph...with this kind of attitude

GTL mod is only vital for 680i mobo. p35 or 338 works well with Quads.

dude may i ask
545. was that on subzero cooling?

Added on October 18, 2007, 10:46 amaiyoyoh, bring my name into here pulak
im testing the board with this guy of course id sa its better hehe
but btw, the CPU score on the board beats the P35 hands down

promote abit maa, fRee only no need pay

@ cstkl1
just finished my rig, i went all my stored screebie but aint found the 500fsb thinggy.. damn
cant prove my story.. zzZZzz

This post has been edited by gengstapo: Oct 18 2007, 10:55 AM

nah the board is really mine
cstkl1 is his own one
whats u saying bout the 500mhz
maybe i can help

yes indeed....it was on my cascade cooled at -70c

hehee.. well, TS mention that maximus the only board able to handdle 500FSB

since im informing my previous commando also able to do 500fsb, i wanna shared my screenie as a prove but when i browse all my print screen collection, i cant get it

that the story..

sorry wei just damn frust yesterday

bro wat u mean by this eh? reproducable? just because u are loaded with money deosnt mean we all are.. if u are willing to buy us the gfx tehn we dun mind at all.. till then just shut it aobut team koc ok.. wats did team ever do to u...? and reproduceable on which score? most of our runs are thru dryice.. adn are highly reproduceble..with super pi.. if u have even benched with suiper pi u knw that witht he same clocks u might not get teh same time... as u said google is a powerfull tool...

Added on October 18, 2007, 11:28 am500fsb on wat chip ? quad? afaik een my super lowend ip35-e can do 500fsb out of the box... wats so special but 500.. if its 600 tehn i might be impressed.. but 500

This post has been edited by lolhalol: Oct 18 2007, 11:28 AM

not quad lerr, old skoll e6600 only with 965p chipset..

just to prove my point on 500FSB and above with sub-zero cooling




Attached thumbnail(s)

haha well dude, i can assure you that if u are on air u cant hit as high
please try it.

haha depends on proc
X6800 are low on the FSB side. but has that unlocked multi

dude. keep it in peace. dont flame it out here

and yes like i said before, it really depeds on the proc
i know my E6600 can hit above 500. but my X6800 is hard

C2D even easier to hit 500FSB......

---

Added on October 18, 2007, 11:34 amAgain....i didn't say air can do.

---

Added on October 18, 2007, 11:37 amnot true.....thats why i keep pointing out that you need extreme cooling. You want high clocks and high FSB...pay the price for it.

This post has been edited by extremeocer: Oct 18 2007, 11:37 AM

yes but i believe what the TS is trying to prove here is that he did above 500fsb on air which is a big achievement for the X6800.
he is also trying to show you all that this board is really kick ass

yepp, been thinking lit dat also..

dude i think u better do more quad core benching
if ure going to keep putting GTL on auto mode.

rest my case on this

no doubt the X38 maximus is a good board indeed but 500FSB is a breeze even with a budget x38 or P35 mobo if you have a good cooling system. Really no offends here. I am just stating the fact here. Don't expect air to do wonders here.

---

Added on October 18, 2007, 12:02 pmAs i said again....GTL mods is most vital for 680i mainboards.

P35 no sweat. I guarantee you. You expect air to bring miracles eh. Then you hafta do more benching yourself.

Now i begin to doubt your knowledge on OC here. When you cant do high OC, you say x6800 tough, say GTL stuff. But the true fact is just so simple....cooling bro, cooling.

This post has been edited by extremeocer: Oct 18 2007, 12:13 PM

again X6800 not so easy... unless u go like extreme cooling...
and for quad if u can do 500 out of the box prove it... till then shut it.

all talk and no show makes u like kindda stupid. dont make this into another 2900pro thread plss..

anyways updated with some quad core benching
more benchies result keep the fat kids away.

4ghz will try to do later as i have to work today.



Take note from now on can u guy actually back up ure statements
if u want to say x6800 can do 500fsb on normal boards.. POST LINKS
if u want to claim q6600 can do 500fsb out of the box on ure fatty lowend ip35
prove it.
if u want to say u can reproduce ure results then show it. and then also dont contradict the statement by saying that ure superpi will always differ. Mine doesnt and u better realize it is a sign if instability.Heck all my clocks i post are sp 32m stable, memtest 3 rounds passed. y?? cause it gives a better benchies with the 3dmark and aquamark

till then shut it.

gpu benchies?? dude if u can type here and have some lowend mobo .. some graphic card must be running on it right?? also i thought some of ure members had a hd2900xt??

UPDATE

SOME more quad core benchies.
will post some e6850 benchies later.

This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 18 2007, 12:21 PM

bro, not that i wanna argue with you and stuff. First and foremost, i NEVER said x6800 clocks good on air, did i? I mentioned time and time again that cooling is the fact here. If i have a x6800 with me now, you would have shut it long ago. Same goes for a Quad.

You always say out the box....what the hell. Why are so many people using Phase Change and cascades then. The point is that it gives you High OC. If you have a Phase change , not to mention cascade, you see the point yourself. Its really that simple.

This post has been edited by extremeocer: Oct 18 2007, 12:22 PM

no bro the statement yesterday was out of frust.
anyways post relevent statements

shall i suddenly come to a thread and say hey i can do 8ghz 700fsb?? when u know the benchies are at a watercooling level.

To everybody:
if u want to say something post relevent statements with similar cooling or state ure cooling for the bus speeds with some spuerpi32m scores etc like how i post. till then all this sounds rubbish.

if u say ure p35 can beat this mobo then prove it with a similar setup at a similar ghz since u can overhit them.
then it shouldnt be a problem

dont make this into a kopitiam thread

This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 18 2007, 12:26 PM

i understand your frustration. But i did post a screenie of high OC with sub-zero cooling. I am definitely not talk-only person. Wish i had a x6800 or a quad, then you can see it for yourself. Hope you understand that i am not saying the Maximus is a lousy board, that any boards can rival it. I can't deny its a good board indeed. 500FSB is really something but if you want further OC....then you gotta have extra cooling.

I shall stop here bro. Really no offends.

Perhaps we can meet to pair up your rig with my cascade...now thats gonna make it fly like hell.

This post has been edited by extremeocer: Oct 18 2007, 12:33 PM

bro super pi will always differ... u wont see it if u run twice or three times.. , u knw why opb was called a cheater? coz his spi times were insanely fast beyond logicall reasoning for that clocks peed.. u knw how he did it.. he just ran spi 100 times and picked the fastest... its a stated bug, not instablity....


and by the way... some x6800 doing 500 fsb...

btw,cstkl1,ur 570fsb chip still with u?mind to test the sandra bandwidth for me?just curious how does it compare with dq6,this board looks damn nice
560x7 1:1 4-4-4-4

no wei .. kekek got an amkong result with the x6800.
when i first got the board i just taruk 570.. and geee it worked..kekeke
after than it didnt anymore...

maybe proc happy to be in new mobo and was over excited.

thats y i going to use a e6850 to bench ram capabilities.
still sian leh that havent settled the 4ghz qx6600 benching.

this mobo loves my team rams... compared to my 680 which practically hates it.
looking for some d9gkx later. since my geil rams had to rma

Geil Ultra PLus 1160 Cl4

Paid a bomb for these
Worked for 30mins
Failed memtest on 2 mobos at rated speeds and jedec speeds - Priceless...

i just want ppl who post on this thread show a similar benchmark with a similar proc before they talk some rubbish

bro dont u find a lot of posting here like claiming this and that but like damn kopitiam only
already the hardware section is like no difference than low yat plaza hardware selling kopitiam style

new gpu comes in everybody like expressing their hope that it will be the king of the world..
early benches come in they all like excited
when it hits the shelves
they dont buy??and then will say like this and that
after a few months the price drop will change their mind with something else or like start all over again with some new gpu thats about to be launched.
then i pulak kena for being rude and hurt some poor kids heart that he cannot sleep at night

and qx66 or qx68?..zzz..lol..y get tat geil?coz i hardly see ppl get it,u r the first,from the ramlist reported it is d9gct
ya..current lyn unlike few yr back

Xtreme cooling = Xtreme oc

some low end mobo can go xtreme level too but it won't last long.....

from the start til now u all still confuse with cstkl's statement la....he is talking about 500 fsb for X68 is consider high.... and u guys go and compare it with E66...

and cstkl about ur statement earlier i will take it as an advice, i m currently playing with the mobo just got it yday only gimme some time i will do some comparisons and benchmark...as for graphic benchmark i really no graphic cards to bench only using 6600GT oni lolx.... didnt concentrate much on graphic benching coz graphic card is too expensive and the new chips, cant really chase after when i think its time for me to get the one i wanted then new chip came out i think darksythe knows what i meant lol

This post has been edited by sup3rfly: Oct 18 2007, 02:15 PM

QFT on this lmao

look at the hardware Q&A now, people asking for hardware they reply with financial advice... damn funny id say.

btw nice mobo and benchies you got there. the x38 is really performing as opposed to the supposedly enthusiast based nvidia's 680. have you compared graphic benchies (maybe use 3dmark 05 or below as they are less cpu/mobo/ram reliant?) between x38 and the 680?

reason for the curiousity is due to the 680 coming from nvidia, theoretically it should have better results with their own graphic cards (unless ur gonna bench with ATI's card)

true bro but do at aquamark and 3dmark06
just to show potential of cpu/rams on this puppy

the aquamark u can post a similar benches on other system on the same gpu

with my 680 i can dream larr to hit 204k at 3.56ghz for aqua.
all this on a GTs..sishh
no wonder Kingpin i think broke the aquamark with this mobo at 290k i think.

Added on October 18, 2007, 2:28 pmhmm dude actually nvidia mobo's usually have better bandwidths on their mem controllers and southbridge.
hence their graphic scores better as it is not being bottlenecked much

since this mobo supports pcie2.0 which means that the southbridge can take more bandwidth.. so not too sure about that

but the benches just now was to show the strengths of the cpu
3dmark05 comparison was for u to draw your own conclusions as didnt bench 3dmark05 for a long time already kekek..

and y i asked team KOC not to offend them
but if u guys start doing more gpu benchies
this mobo is going to score some serious points for u.
thats all
doesnt matter what gpu it is.

okie i will run the benchmarks as well but warn u guys 1st it will be freaking low scores!!!! i believe aquamark involve with graphics as well so i dont think i will be getting sky high score on it.... now looking for ram max speed at 1t... so far DDR900 4-4-4-4 @ 2.4v, bios set as 2.3, will try 4-4-4-8 and 5-5-5-12 later dun think 1T will help much tho

here is some screenie of a super low clock comparison of super pi 1m xD

on the bright side, since ur gfx card is old, most likely it wont face any bottlenecking and thus the results can be more "authentic" if you get what i mean

well i suppose so.... the scores is gained mostly by the proc and ram not graphic anymore if thats what u meant

yeah which is why i mentioned 3dmark 05 earlier. 06 is very reliant on cpu and mem (especially cpu).

even a 50-100 mhz difference can affect few hundred points on 3dmark06 for my benches.

ok and u seriously think that was on a air cooling or water cooling on a unmodded mobo??
ok one link...somemore?? dude u dont have to post the pics.. just give the links...
if u can give 10-20 till then just accept it as a godly fact that u never had a x6800 to test with so u have no clue what ure talking about.
dont make this is kopitiam

shall i say all procs can do 700fsb...
and then u argue back with me saying oh yeah i meant on god mother l2n cooling with some experimental drugs injected into me at the north pole??

i find this topic of x6800 doing 500fsb u guys just dont get it

so far only superfly gets it.


again and for the last time
IT IS RARE FOR X6800 to do fsb 500 on a unmoded mobo with air/water

aiyaaa.. oledi jump into aquamark ady arhh?

dont larii topic lerr

btw, aquamark depend mostly on GFx

no bro.. wrong

that was before c2d

after that ppl could actually balance out the system
example was my post... do u think that the gts was the contributing factor for 217k at 4ghz??

im going to make this very clear.
lets be humans and let whoever wants to kill each other do it somewhere else
sheesh. there is really no point here because what one says will be shot down by another person.
if this thread is going to be a flamming thread, then there is really no point in having this around.

i apologize if i have offended anyone here but we are all lowyat.net forumers. we all learn from each other, not kill each other with words

edited. wrong people added in

yeah i know but GFx shall contribute more than cpu i believe
u can do comparison from the database where GFx score slightly higher than cpu score

correct me if im wrong

kekek no one is denying that fact
it only works with hmm 4 gpu
gtx,gts,hd2900xt and now the pro.

the rest u need to sli or crossfire

man of the peace
must be smoking a pipe somewhere

kekekek
dude my ram died on me again.. after rma

sian
the team xtreem cl3's

lets get back into bussines, shall we??

TS, since u have qx9650, shall u done some overclock ability/ benchie(s) paired with maximus?

uik not yet bro
hence WTB
hence blue color...

oit.. tot oledi got coz oledi in ur siggy

haizz.. any other proc to be test later?

ur qx6800!!!!

tried..
dunno y cant even clock pass 333.

it is a b3 and err also have to admit that my coolit has probs cooling that proc

hence y i use on my second rig with the 3d mercury casing.

that was the first proc that i did in my gf's apartment since it is her computer.
did it while she was away in muar kekeke incase she wanted me to replace her asus 680 mobo with this...

girls.. they can be a blessing or a curse...

which is y once the yorkfield hits will try to get the proc after i get some better cooling that can handle atleast 200-250watts.

the coolit is good right up to 130 watts
and thats a big problem for extreme quads which heck at stock already 130watts.
hmm thought most of u would have noticed that . kekek y i didnt use that proc on the main rig..err cause cannot cool it down.. the load part.

Added on October 18, 2007, 11:52 pmwill not give up on the 4ghz quad core stable benching...

after one pair of ram dying.. will keep trying...
ocz back to the rescue again...

owh..so which of ur current proc is the best to bench with maximus?

another thing superfly
when u did ure dry ice run
all u needed was it to be stable for 4m/8m
and some ok gpu
and u could be aiming for some insane aquamark scores.

also aqua would show if ure rams are unstable....
example like sudden dip in fps and everything running slow means rounding errors..
gpu crash.. will load into windows
proc crash well BSOD

seems like a good program to test stability as well.... all got symptom if any of them is unstable.... planned to try on cinebench as well... lets see what will happen la
gimme some time.... btw any of u using 0505 bios??? seems like only 1:1 and 2:3 is working others are not working as well...it fixed loadline tho

trying it now.
hmm 1:1 perfect now. yup the rest are like hit and go kindda thing.

now q6600 470 stable
475 can hit but there is signs of stress on the proc.

nice, but it would be better if can share simple screenie for us here..

would be very great rather than just typin'.. IMHO

CSTKL1,

like we talked yesterday,i did run crossfire hd2900xt 512mb gddr3 on this mobo 3dmark 2006
here's the result,quite impresive,can go more,hopefully can past 20k mark


Attached thumbnail(s)

impresive.. no, really

surpassed those 88GTX SLIed score

damn..

go higher bro
those 2 puppies are still bottlenecked at 3.5

already packed it ready to be sold.

anyways i didnt want to bench the max fsb
was trying to do 4ghz

superpi 1m 32m can do
but failed 3dmark cpu test, orthos 1 hour

so considered failed
PS i seriously needs some rams now.

This post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 19 2007, 11:52 AM

yeahh that is enuff ady

i know its would be impossible to get passed stress test with 4Ghz lol.. especially running em' for long time

simple bench enuff such Pi calc. or 3dmark(any ver.) cpu benchie

hmm but c2d can
this quad i couldnt do it
maybe cooling prob
or i need to prep some watercooling on those nb

what cooling u using bro? how are the temps?

i think he is on the CoolIT

i know cstkl1 is using coolit, bst dude too?

just using gigabyte kit,cpu and 2 vga.the tem on radeon quite good,full load around 63
btw ur tj09 can collect on sunday in subang

sigh having some issue with my crucial 10th ram, the ram speed cant get passed 1260 @ 5-5-5-12 @ 2.45v vdimm.... guess it doesnt like my ram or it doesnt like D9GMH like sean says??? haih.... cstkl do u encounter such issue with the D9GMH rams??? btw i m running 0505 bios and 4:5 is not working others seem fine...

hmmm well my team cl3's died in 1 hour or so...

but its working well my ocz titanium alpha vx2

i am looking for some d9gkx since its the supported chip on asus websites.

but until now
cannot stabalize on 4ghz and i have no clue y even though the temps are low.
i countered checked the temps using asus probe/core temp and today even with a thermal probe.
condensations happens at idle

so far havent found anybody in xs also stable 4ghz or passed 4ghz on air/water

hmmm crucial doesnt work really well with maximus, will try team ram later
btw hoq much vdimm do u set in bios???

4ghz stable, how u gonna measure it?? orthos or what???? i will try on mine as well but let me settle my ram part 1st.... yeah its true loadline calibration is working fine now.... actually no droop at all but drop still happens, vdimm was overvolt, vcore is undervolt...
