There are so many choices of good RAM's these days with reasonable prices

can a sunbeamtech Core-Contact Freezer fit on a EP45-UD3P mobo?

or do i need to cut something off?

im afraid the answer is no:( you can refer to the pic below. that is before mounting the ccf into the bracket. imo, if u want to fit ccf into this board, u may need to damage the heatsink a lil.

oh so can't use CCF cooler,

recommend me a cpu heatsink that will work with this mobo and has similar cooling results of the CCF

Xigamtek S-1283 with SS kit bro... very silence, yet inexpensive cooler with great performance

you may consider Killer Whale too. but im not too sure if it fits into UD3P or not

okay, xigmatek s-1283, but what is the diff between red scorpion and normal one?

SS kit you mean what? xigmatek crossbow kit?

Normal one, higher rpm fan (2000rpm) plus not LED. Red Scorpion have white led and lower rpm fan (1500rpm). So, basically, RS has bling but the performance for both is almost the same.

btw, just saw your pm and replied edi

hey thanks man...thanks for all the info and help. thanks for replying my pm too

no problem man... fast fast get this board and post some result

i got the ud3p already and e8400 with s1284 achilles.

hi all, finally got ppl open this threat for discussions ... im a newbie for oc, currently i set wit stage 1 (using easytuner6) - oc till 3.2 ghz due of chapalang ram... my system reached 39-41 degrees and cpu reached 34-36 degrees, is it cooling enough? and i juz put stock themal paste only it , what steps i should do to get bring max performance ?

pics or it didnt happen

hurry post some result bro



its always better if u oc manually. do not use the auto oc feature on easytune6. btw, i think you should read kmarc's oc guide.
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f...0#entry15451675

the guide may seems a lil different compare to your current board but as u read through you would understand how to oc it manually.

which part are you referring to actually?

err..i tell u smtg. for the normal s 1283 and the red scorpion. i think fan rpm is the same.my mobo sensor detects only 1400+ rpm maximum. only the first batch of S1283 (normal version) has a 2k rpm fan. i can confirm wif u for this since rockrock also told me the same thing and i bought the normal s1283 coz i dun need the bling bling lights.

Xigmatek only has 2 models of 12cm HDT heatsinks, S1283 & S1284. S1284 has a slight difference in design and is used in Xigmatek Achilles while S1283 is used in Xigmatek S1283, Xigmatek Red Scorpion & Xigmatek Dark Knight.

Err.........I think got S1284 rev 2 leh,gap between heatpipe narrower,shown in xs

i'm not so sure about the rev 2 stuff. Because if you read much further the supposed rev2 is a kind of prototype.

The fans for the heatsinks also differ somewhat from the early version. but there's no clear cut proof that there are rev2 and so on.

Added on November 28, 2008, 1:48 amabout the slight difference, need correcting.

S1283 including RS and DK has 3 copper heatpipes whereas S1284 has 4 heatpipes. This is majorly important and definately not "slight difference".

It plays a major role in the type of CPU that is suitable because the difference in heatpipe number, surface size and size of contact area.
