Are you going to mess with overclocking at all with that board?

I've got the ddr3 version and havn't messed with it at all. Been kicking around the idea but have never got around to it.

Yes, I would like to squeeze a small stable overclock but I'm probably not going to stress the board too much considering this board will crunch 24/7.

No it isn't. That's like saying turning down the boost on a factory turbocharged car is fun. It's just plain blasphemy is what it is.

no, its tweaking the car to have stock performance with less noise, less heat, and better fuel economy.

its a challenge, just like OCing.

I couldn't have said it better. It's a challenge and it's fun.

Plus it's different. PC's like in my case I need to keep the heat down so I try to leave things at stock clock but undervolted. You don't have to under volt if you don't want to.

I have the MA785GM-US2H (same think? IDK?) that I ran my X4 955 with for a while. With a small fan/HSF over the vREGs, it would take my X4 955 to 3.8ghz, but it was hot like that, so I ran it 24/7 @ 3.5ghz

Good board for $65 IMO

Nice! that is good to know, I will be running a Phenom 9950 on it.

Here is the old board that died- MSI k9N2 SLI Platinum, now what should I do with it...hmmmm

[Ion] · Oct 26, 2010

RMA time?

A PhI probably won't OC so well (and I did a straight multi-OC, so your mileage may vary) but GL w/ it :toast:

Surely not the opinion that will save our Planets ecology.

"Kyoto Protocol? Whats that?"

If you would live in a place where one litre gas costs more, than a gallon in the US, i believe that would diminish your interest in gas-guzzling lifetakers :laugh:

Hell, we are the only Country left with undefined speed limits on most Highways, and there are many,many people that can take advantage of that. We dont even have to drive as much as a regular US citizen, why should we make our Cars Fuel-efficient?
Maybe, for the sake of all People that love their life,their Health, and their Food more than some monstrous acceleration machine...

talking about voltage: the perfect overclock is a mild undervolt, with as much additional performance als possible. i remembered i had a time when i also refused to undervolt... it was 1-2 months after i got my first dualcore,a 5000+ and thus, my first rig since an xp 3000+. i ran 1.6-1.7 thru it, with 3.2ghz and felt me kinda mighty

There's also OCZ DDR3-1600 8-8-8-20. Building starts later today.

How'd it died exactly, why can't you RMA it? (I think I might be interested in the heatsinks off it if you'd be willing to let them go.

Just curious, is ~55 °C idle normal for Bloomfield (room temperature is ~20 °C)?

kid41212003 · Oct 26, 2010

That isn't normal.

Room temp only 20C, the cpu should idle around 35-40C.

Thanks. Also, in the idle power state (EST enabled, C1E enabled, Turbo Boost enabled), should the clock speed be 1200 MHz or 1600 MHz?

btarunr · Oct 26, 2010

Aha, it was that EasyTune software that was loading a thread at 100%

I haven't switched back to power saving mode for quite long... If I remember correctly it's 1.6GHz, because the lowest multi is 12x

thats not a bad temp for load imo

are you using stock cooler?

Yes, stock Intel.

A lot of work (finalizing a stable OC that runs fine with stock Intel cooler), and cable management left. The case is NZXT Gamma.

Thinking about a better cooler on that?

(FIH) The Don · Oct 26, 2010

well not bad at all imo

i can recommen the Hyper212+ cooler if you're looking for a cheap one

and that 8pin looks like its long enough to run behind the mb

Yes this case is excellent at cable management. I still have work to do one mine, thinking to get some of those sleeve thingies and cleaning up the front panel wires. :toast:

Thanks.

I am TPU's new <insert component> cooler reviewer. The idea is if I have an OC with the stock cooler pushed to its max, I can use the stock cooler as a standard compared to the coolers I'll review (to show just by how much the stock cooler sucks, for a constant frequency). I'll also push each individual cooler to its limits.

That's why you see that old warhorse 8800 GT there (it has a very laxed fan-profile).

Thanks, yes, there's a lot of cable management left. I'll saw off every unwanted cable from that PSU, if I have to.

Cold Storm · Oct 26, 2010

Good luck on the reviewing Bta. it'll be a sweet set up to do it from!

Great cooler for the price, but the mounting hardware is wonky at best, and usually is nothing short of frustrating.
