Haha...Okie.
But I dun think is 5x HT problem.

-pWs-

hoho, return of brother ongbs
hope you can solve your problems soon

one question:
you guys set the HT bandwidth to 8x or 16x?

16x for both directions. Why??

-pWs-

The higher is better rite?
Thats mean 16X is better..

nothing, just try to survey and see who's using 8x here
anyone try this before? Compare 8x and 16x HT bandwidth by using everest memory benchmark

no lah...old man now quite only...running below 3GHz wor

last time i duno den i set to 8x..now use 16...

bro dj, how many degree C drop after lapping yr F3?

think back la..i dont remember properly...but i think few degree only...not much

Its all part of the fun..speed trills..some OCers are like that, others do it to get high end stuff at cheap cost.

A single core 3.4Ghz might actually be a good choice for gaming, since quite a lot of games in the past year are starting to get processor bottlenecked again after a number of years of graphic bottlenecked games (thanks to gameplay physics). Many games don't use multi cores at all, and many of those which do it pretty inefficiently, not much improvement from single core.

I had that problem too..realised why after reading anandtech review on Penryn, which includes an explaination of why vdroop is good (shocking, isn't it?). My mobo (NF-M2 nview) has vdroop disabled, which I've come to realise messes up CnQ and underclocking, because on idle the voltage regulators stop boosting the voltage (it boosts on load to counter vdroop) and the voltage sometimes drops to an unstable level without me noticing it.

Its too bad, but at least they've learnt their lesson. I think Phenom 65nm will not be around for long, and AMD will quickly move to Deneb (45nm), which is already in initial production. Deneb will have more cache, and should be able to clock higher. If AMD doesn't mess this up, then AMD will have a fighting chance end of 2008. Only problem now is funding, AMD is running a loss for quite a while. There's been talk of companies possibly buying up AMD like how AMD bought ATI, since AMD/ATI current value is actually less then what AMD bought ATI for.

I don't think it would make much difference in memory benchmarks, but maybe graphics benchmarks. Memory operations don't use the HT link.
Btw its 8 bit vs 16 bit, not 8x and 16x.

I expected as much. AMD's heatpreaders are extremely flat compared to Intel's 775 procs.

thanks for the correction,
really appreciate it

i think ddr2-1233.. no so good.. the pic edi delete.. coz in 3days i have 'war' with spyware.. bosan tol.. last2 format.. format all important data..so sad..

no wonder ur vcore too high..

High meh??

-pWs-

i use 1.360v for my system (shown in sigs)

I see. Different hardware I think

-pWs-

think so.. coz u got so many superb hardware attached ..haha

Nope I think.
I think my mobo is the real culprit.
Need higher Vcore if compared w other boards.

-pWs-

is time to change this

Attached thumbnail(s)

dfi packaging is the best ive ever seen..looks technical..and modern..
btw,bro,do u know the retail price?any review?
u planning to get one ah?

It can use 3 gpu...Is it all 16X if use at one time?
