Come on Durvelle27, I expected more from your 6 Core Xeon. My 4 Core is running just as fast.

:roll:

Man I'm trying

My series of board are plagued with thermal throttling really bad with no way to disable it like other X58 boards

I found a work around by flashing with a modified BIOs but i don't have the time right now to flash it and play around with it. :cry:

Its not my cooling as my temps are really tamed under 60°C

Intel has a dumb feature that when over 1.4V and the CPU surpasses the 130W TDP the board auto throttles it down

Almost all X58 have a option to disable it but the P6T series.

It was talked briefly about in this thread

https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/core-i7-turbo-throttling-testing-tool.95282/
There is Throttlestop but it's only useful within Windows, might still useful however.

Well technically I did have a Xeon 1240 V2 but I passed the whole build to my brother since he was stuck on a older AMD Athlon II X2 220 with Nvidia's older iGPU Northbridge the Geforce 6150.

I rather use a permanent soultion and not have to worry about constantly having to check software etc....

Go as high as it needs but be warned i would never venture passed 1.5 on an intel chip.
1.55v on Phenom II is all i managed lol... the heat that will produce will be very high it's a 6 core.

Something i noticed that's really werid

I'm running 16GB(4x4GB) of RAM and it's recognised as triple channel instead of dual channel

Is this normal or did i somehow get lucky :roll:
It must from populating four slots, that chip has 3 channel support, I'm assuming that's why

I know my CPU supports tripple channel

But i assumed triple channel only worked if using 3 or 6 sticks not 4

I know my CPU supports tripple channel

But i assumed triple channel only worked if using 3 or 6 sticks not 4

I believe that it will default to triple channel if there are 4 or 5 sticks of ram in the system.

It will default to this in order to run better performance. It still uses the 4th and 5th stick of ram, but only 3 are set to triple channel. Of course if you increase your memory to 6 sticks then it will run all 6 in triple channel.
