Some results to kick start the thread.

500MHz FSB on the older P965-S Dark. (not the max oc yet)


So, to all other experts and sifu, please do share all kinds of tips and methods to make the oc journey a wild and happy one.

I couldn't agree more. Too bad, replacing the southbridge with any aftermarket cooler would means trouble on dual slot GCs. Still not perfect yet. Now patiently awaiting the UT series

Thats very good temp.

Wats the Vnb u pump ?

-pWs- : Still ok la since its the stock cooler, won't expect it to outperform any of those aftermarket ones.

emilz: for the nb and sb, surely can use those noctua and thermalright, deepcool, zalman, evercool, coolermaster, thermaltake and any other brands, as long as it doesn't obstruct the graphic card that u r potentially gonna use with. But for me, I see that the SB will b hard to choose a good cooler, unless u don't use those dual slots reference cards like 4870 coz kinda hard to fit any kind of cooler on it. As for the mosfet, will need to check on the length 1st with the sizes shown on the TR webby to confirm which is suitable to use with. Will update here with more info later.

lloyd1030: here's a simple guide on DFI range: Best board among the same chipset is the Lanparty UT version, mid range is the LanParty LT while the LanParty DK is more for budget range. These 3 r the full ATX boards. While the Lanparty JR is more for the M-ATX options, suitable for SFF casings. So, if u need help in moving into Intel platform, can ask around here, or PM me to discuss further. Free consultation available. haha
But, do note that despite the Lanparty DK being the budget range, it still performs nearly as good as the LT and UT versions, just doesn't comes with the bells and whistles.

-pWs-: Well bro, for ur proc, near to 3.4 or 3.5 oledi very good for a quad core. I do agree that the temp won't be much of a concern, but its more of enjoying the oc and hitting high speeds without sacrificing stability. DFI are good for stability too.

lloyd1030: Hi, for ur budget, u can consider the DFI LanParty DK P45-T2RS-Plus with the E7200 processors. Just for OC, benchmark and gaming, these 2 combo are quite good oledi. I would suggest u to go for the E8400 if u can up ur budget, then u'll surely enjoy ur oc more. U'll also need to remember to get a good CPU cooler along coz the heat generate will be significant when u oc to high speed.

-pWs- : Nice results bro For air cooling this is quite a feat. If u had higher multiplier, surely easier to break the barrier.

kujaboyde & xtremecooler : off topic abit, interested in D9GMH ? Consider this

xtremecooler: Sorry bro, this thread is for oc, later mods give warning. PM me if u r interested.

-pWs-: U dun need this la bro. Ur Anny are similarly good, probably even better since its handpicked. hahaha

emilz: On the way bro. On the way. haha, will update u once i've sent out the board.

kujaboyde: Do check with ur seller on the age of ur ram. If its manufactured this year, very likely (touchwood), might not give u high ram speeds coz i've heard quite a few of my customers complaining about the performance of the new rams. If u check my oc in this thread under Post #3, u can see that i'm using the ballistix tracer too. These r last year's batch and they only require 2.1V to reach 1000MHz with 5-5-5-15 timings. On my new A-data rams, 2.0V to reach 1000MHz with 5-5-5-15 timings. Not yet fine tune it, but mayb later during weekends.

kujaboyde: Wow CF 4870X2 But wat happened to the mobo ? U can either send it to me, or else directly send to the distri. Since its still within this 1st week, u drop it to the distri in LYP they should b able to replace u the mobo on the spot, i'll check with them on this. Will reply u soon.

Actually the reason they r keeping it is to reap a bigger profit soon. USD exchange rate is hiking. So, proc price will go up following USD rates. That way, when the new unit price is higher, they get better margin lo.

haha, sounds good, but our enthusiasts are wide spread around the whole Malaysia woh ?

haha, if u guys want it, i can check with the distri if they are interested to organize 1 or not.

Wah, u guys so fast fever LP oledi. hahaha, well, surely its possible to be done, but mayb let me ask the distri opinion 1st. Who knows we might have some other brands joining in too.

Ok guys, off topic abit oledi. So who else got results in P45 DK oc results ? Show show la, dun shy shy.

-pWs- : dun worry, u for sure must come over wan

emilz : Dun worry bro, if we'll make it, it'll be after raya, probably during school holiday la, that way, everyone can come.

kujaboyde: Hmmm, sure got drinks wan, but plain water can ah ? hahhaha, mayb i try find drinks sponsor too.

Alamak, OC thread bcome LanParty thread. hahaha

For those who wants the E0 stepping for this Q9550, can contact me, my distri got some in hand.

kujaboyde: Grab either the Q9450 or else get the QX9650 and then slap on the CF 4870X2 can oledi. Then u own the best SFF in the world. haha

Dun wan la bro, post some results now. I'm sure ur C2D can at least reach 500FSB now.

kujaboyde: Wah bro, so easy for E8200 to hit 4GHz oledi I thot E8200 was X7 multi only ? Cool, nice proc u have there.

rlhc17: Wah, this wan lagi ganas 600FSB Nice wan bro, push more for the Q9550 later. If wan E0 stepping, can look for me.

Nonit to think oledi bro. Whack ur proc into the board, and start to oc. 400 x 8 oledi nice. 450 x 8 even better. 500 x8 is heaven oledi. anything higher, OMG lo. hahaha

Try to oc with the new board 1st bro. C if its easy to reach high fsb or not compare to the previous P965 Dark, then later when u put in some 45nm, then u'll know which proc is better.



BTW, guys who wants to aim for the UT version of the P45, due to marketing strategy, distri are forcing the price to be below RM 1000. good news for all those who are aiming for this board. Coming soon is all i can say for now.

*Edit: double posted.Sorry

ruffstuff: wat proc r u using bro ?

emilz: Ok la, u lazy to oc oso nvm, just post ur current setup for ur rig can oledi lo. pics r very welcomed.

@meno : I try ask.

mfcm: relax bro, will get u the final pricing once its available. But confirm around RM 9XX and above. hahaha.

-pWs-: Bro, wats the vcore u putting in ? If temp in idle below 50C, can consider to up to 1.5V coz still got some vdroop.

best option Thermalright HR03 GT, but value for money, look for clawhammer, ask him his akasa can be used or not on ur GC.

tkh_1001: Nice proc u have there. Too bad nowadays 9450 no more in production.

emilz: I sense major overhaul and upgrade coming up ? Better u aim for the Q9550 E0, then with custom WC on ur TJ09 or maybe ur future "casing" ? haha. THen when got LP, bring it along, let us cc lo.

1. No comments yet.

2. EIST and C1E is the feature in the bios that u need to disable to avoid ur processor from running at a lower multiplier automatically.

3. Ur super pi is quite regular of a Quaddies, push a little bit more, u can get a much better results.

If i'm not mistaken ur MSI Neo3 is not suitable for high clock oc, mayb the diamond version can do 4ghz. Fully depends on ur proc too. Rams won't affected it too much, coz the fsb is not too high.
