Turns out my board doesn't like x12 uncore, even with x6 RAM...
This might be promising!

Now for a short stability test... Currently running 1.425 vcore in BIOS, says 1.4 in BIOS health status, also in CPU-Z
Upped QPI to 1.3 and RAM to 1.6. 37C idle with the fans on full. Not too shabby.

EDIT: Turned Turbo off since it locked up and BSOD'd right when I clicked Prime95 start:


This is going a lot better really! I'm even still just under 70C stressed like this :pimp:

EDIT 2: BSOD after about 30 mins of Prime. I might get that 4Ghz stable on 1.5v, but that's gonna mean near 75C temps. I dun want that.
So, I clocked back to 3.66, see if I can get that stable.

wheres HT at :D?

Good job so far, but 1.5v for 4ghz, i think you need to tweak other voltages, thats too much vcore for that clock. I do 4.0 GHz @ 1.305v, raised it a tick to 1.317v for crunching, been crunching away ever since. By the way I raised it in fear of crashing, @ 1.305v i never had a reboot or bsod in about a little over a month.

Well, my board is dead. Going out for RMA tomorrow. This is my 3rd dead DFI board in the last year. I'm becoming very disappointed.

Is it hard to overclock the Core i7's? I'll be getting my Rampage 2 Extreme, Core i7 920 and 6GB 1600MHz RAM in about 2 months. The Core i7 will be watercooled with the 4870 x2.

On the subject of the ASUS V2 they still don't have a CPU VR Current Limit Override. You will be sacrificing the ability to OC past 4.3GHz on those boards with a 920.

You're wrong here. Do some research. Since the p35 chipset, they have put out some VERY good boards.

On the subject of the ASUS V2 they still don't have a CPU VR Current Limit Override. You will be sacrificing the ability to OC past 4.3GHz on those boards with a 920.

Damn!! :banghead:

Out of all the X58's, the Biostar is the worst, especially the colour layout. Yuck. Rampage 2 Extreme by ASUS is sexy.

Couldn't care less about the color scheme. Performance is all that matters.

Hey SV....know of anyplace that has the Blood Rage available?

Oh Paul :laugh:

But seriously, Biostar and also MSI are quite crappy too. The rest are ok to me.

But I've also been with ASUS a lot 'cause I'm a big fan of their high end boards like my board is the best in X48.

Yeah right, judge a thing by its color... i will remember that next time i take a dump!
The Biostar x58 is one of the best board i ever owned. Its rock solid and overclock as high as any other boards and is cheaper too. And about DFI... i don't know what happened recently with the quality of their build, got 3 bad p45 dark in a row before i understood. One of them now hangs on my wall as a reminder to never buy dfi again. (i was a die hard dfi fan since the nf4...)

Well, my board is dead. Going out for RMA tomorrow. This is my 3rd dead DFI board in the last year. I'm becoming very disappointed.

Did this happen because of OCing your 920?? What exactly happened? Need to know before I start getting my motherboard for my 920?:confused:

Yup, if it performed better. I'm confident in my masculinity. :laugh:

I am with yeah! Except ECS is pretty poor in performance.:ohwell:

I know other people who overclock to 4.6GHz on the 920 on DFI boards and theirs still work. Don't go apeshit on DFI just yet... there are good boards out there. I guess it just takes time.

Bought it through motherboard pro. I'm waiting on RMA approval. Just requested it tonight. Newegg sucks for me, since I live in TN and pay tax. Sadly, it's the only place I've found the biostar available. Anyone see the Blood Rage available?
