@Tatty
~6200 CPU score at 4GHz with HT Off is a right score.

Did you try to run the benchmark on other Windows Version (XP,7)?

Win 7, that got me about 80 points more than my screenie but that first run definatly got me over 7000 points which would be similar to CP's. I have since tried it at 4gig using Turbo but I only get 3.8gigs worth of performance as I beleive if temps go over 60C then turbo mode disables? Win 7 is strange, witrh HT off it plays up, does not recorde the CPU speeds properly in CPU-Z etc etc I need to run without turbo and with HT on in Win 7 to get any consistency :(

Have you tried adjusting your ram? What cpu score have you gotten with other quad cores at 4.0ghz in 06?

Hmmmm perhaps you have a good point there, I have 2 settings saved in BIOS for 4gig, one with memory at 1608mhz at 7-7-7-20 the other at 1920mhz (or therabouts) at 9-9-9-24 all other settings the same, perhaps I loaded the wrong one by mistake so the first run was at the higher mem speed, all the rest were perhaps at the lower, but would that extra 300mhz on looser timings acount for a 1000 CPU points?

It's entirely possible. It's been said before that CAS 6 1600MHz trumps 2000MHz ram in most applications.

Thanks, I will at least give it a run tonight to see if thats it. Also thinking about it, at CAS 7 my ram is pretty much near it's limits on anything above 1600mhz, I know from before that if the memory is near it's limit it can actually under perform considerably.

From seeing most other D0's they handle voltages much better than the rest.

Lol stock i7 D0 = 40 degrees?

no way!

Old C0 @ stock = idle 28-30 degrees.

I'm going to remove and apply the cooler again :(

Well sadly I cant try and solve my problem as the motherboard is well fuc*ed up, I switched it on tonight when I got home and it would not power on, either at the power button on the case or the power button on the mobo, at first I thought my PSU had failed but then I got power , well enough to power up the Opticals but not the CPU etc, the LED ligt was very faint on the board and I had an error code off 88 which basically means motherboard failure :cry: Just to make matters worse, the site where I bought it wont let me log into my account so it must be having technical problems so I could be a while without a board and working system.

And there was me saying I hadnt had any issues with this board!

I'm going to send it back. Can't live with these temps :banghead:

D0 temps:



Now i'm going to put my old CPU back again and see what the temps will be then

it's a better overclocker though. If this doesn't work out i'll send it back and order another D0

No , scythe mugen 2.

I'm using my ''old'' c0 now. It's much cooler.

Wait 5 minutes so i can make a comparison screenshot

Those idle temps mean nothing. You need to push the chip a bit to find load temps. That is what you want to compare. For the record, those temps at idle are very common for CO or DO chips. Trust me, I'm on my 3rd CO right now.

Ok i'm going to do OCCT for one hour , both chips. If the D0 temps are like + 5-10 degrees higher . i'll send it back to the shop.

It could also be that there's a difference in the bowing of your D0 chip vs your C0 chip vs the Mugen 2. My D0 actually has better temps than my C0 with the block I'm using but my C0 did amazingly with my Swiftech GTZ in comparison to other people. There's got to be something that explains this other than the D0s running hotter. Also you can do much better than stock speeds at 1.18V ;)

Good point on the bowing. Still, load temps is what will really tell the story.

Replaced my second DFI DK board today. I replaced it with the Asus Rampage 2 Gene and i have to say VERY well done to Asus, this thing is small and still a beast. I love everything about it. One complaint tho, but i guess it is each to there own. The temps on the NB seem alittle high, I am running at 53degC and I haven't changed anything in the BIOS yet (although I don't have any fans blowing on it).

Replaced my second DFI DK board today. I replaced it with the Asus Rampage 2 Gene and i have to say VERY well done to Asus, this thing is small and still a beast. I love everything about it. One complaint tho, but i guess it is each to there own. The temps on the NB seem alittle high, I am running at 53degC and I haven't changed anything in the BIOS yet (although I don't have any fans blowing on it).

The NB temp was the only thing I didn't like about that board. However, with a fan blowing over it, it stays in the 40's.

Yea, I am still trying to take in how well it is built. It has to be one of the sexiest NB heat sinks i have seen. It isn't in my case yet, so no doubt temps will drop on it :)
