New Crosshair II Formula user reporting (even though there is few AMD user here sweat.gif )

Just wanted to share something, I done Hypertransport speed in AM2 CPU in relation to graphics performance using 3DMark06 just now, despite what I read before, it does give some performance benefits. Here is the result, there are 3 setting, 400HT, 1200HT and 2000HT

For anyone who uses Crosshair II Formula, I noticed that it automatically raise the SB (chipset, not NF200 chip) voltage as the CPU frequency is up, the default is 1.1V but when I clocked to 3GHz it automatically raised to 1.4~V which is alarming, I put it at 1.1V and its rock stable and now the PC is much quieter and cooler. I can touch the chipset heatsink, its not as hot as before.

It is recomended you guys put the voltage to stock (lowest) value unless you know what you are doing.

I used the same mobo and Phenom 955BE CPU. You need to update the BIOS to the latest 2302 BIOS as the older 2202 have problems with CnQ. It could reach more than 4GHz, if you could manage to keep the temperature low and enough juice from power supply. So far I could get 4GHz but at most I just run at 3.8GHz 1.35V to keep the temperature low
