haih... i afraid that I've to stand on their side
i assume that hardcore overclock = extreme cooling involved
TA770 has slow boot issue, it is definitely not suitable.
8-10 sec wasted on each boot up ,
by the time you get the perfect settings, ice / DI already melt

also, i couldn't see any oc software such as clockgen and setfsb support TA770 for time being.
you need that for extreme overclocking

Upon my previous oc on TA770 , i found that i couldn't hit anything higher than 380HTT no matter how.
While i can easily boot up from bios with 400HTT for TA690G
I dunno this is bios issue or what ,
but i do hope that it could be fixed through bios update
currently TA770+ is not suitable for hardcore oc.
hopefully setfsb will release a new version that can support TA770 A+
Also, through bios update they can fix the rest of the issues

any advise to clock further...trying to max out the OC b4 running orthos...btw i'm using tracer ddr800

if ure using tracer,better put ur divider at 667 and vdimm probably at 2.2..very impressive OC i might say...ur chip is very good.mine previously can only achieve 2.9 at 1.550vcore

Hi guys.
Out Of Topic.

Well,i just received my motherboard today.I found that its kind of sticky under the motherboard.Is it ok if i clean it with a thinner to remove the sticky thing?

Maybe i will lost my F3,last night i lapped it,then if fell into the detergent (berenang)
I am still afraid to turn on my rig.

wahh...after bro ongbs put tatoo to the F3,
now you let F3 berenang, haha
make sure it is all dry before u turn it on
no worry, shouldn't be a problem

TQ bro.Thats a big relief.
Well,what about applying thinner to remove the sticky thing at the motherboard? will it be a good or bad idea?

Sorry PWS out of topic for a while.

later kaboom den how?

Well,thats why i asked the someone for opinions.If its kaboom,then its a full stop for my rig.

Which bios is better to use for TA690G:

A-Official Bios
B-Beta Bios.

-TQ-

won't kaboom la. People in manufacturing factory do clean up their PCB products in such way b4 they are ready for end users.
The only thing is they don't use thinner, they use flux ( not sure the spelling is correct or not) to clean up
Try to use other cleanser la , thinner seems not a good choice
(bau kuat nanti baru tau )

Haha,i will try it after this.

About the bios,i found this 2008 released and this 2007 released..Which is safe to use and better.

until now i'm still using 605 bios
But i'm not saying that those later bios not good la haha
