I have to say it but I found that particular article is full of bullshit. The variation of >3% between the boards is roughly what you'd find when you repeat tests over and over. Some times the benchies come out better, and sometimes worse just by trying it over again.

Speaking of boards though, the new x58 from DFI I received is a charmer. It started to squeel right out of the box and I was so scared, but with some tweaking it went away, and I've done some fun clocks with my system. 4.5ghz HT off is always nice with a super pi at 9.157s. Sorry for the lack of screenshits but I'm sort of tired at this point... it's 1:16 AM and I just put the system back to the good ol 4.2GHz 24/7 settings. About to do Pi 1.5 32M for stability. Ciao!

I really like those fans! UV? where from?

Bought them at AquaTuning.de because I was ordering those waterblocks there anyway, they're NoiseBlocker fans, German brand.

Don't know if they're UV reactive, but they look nice either way :D

Except for the barf colour, we'll know more at CeBit I believe.
It's got some sort of cooling plate on the back of the motherboard as well.

The 920 and 940 have locked (upward) multipliers.

No way! The ram isn't really all that "shiny" anyway. It's just unpolished copper.



Payment sent ;) Hook it up.

I recieved it too, will be going by the post office on monday:rockout:
Gotta say, the block looks pretty.

think you could show some internals? I have seen them but I'm curious about the Delrin (LT) top internals.

So, for everyone who is running 4.0+ 24/7, what vcore are you currently using? Right now, I'm at 4.0ghz 1.40v, OCCT stable.
