I had ordered some cheap and funny parts from china... for an experiment. I already ran it for testing with my older parts in Bitfenix Prodigy M. It will be a tough task with that case, so much to do as there is no space and it needs proper hardmods to be pretty. Yesterday I drilled holes to put SSD on the backside for example, not some shoddy plastic cover, besides if you put it there you cannot properly close it as the wires and spare sata power connectors are too thick lol. But be patient... I will randomly show up something. I need to design and order completely new case I/O led, USB and power/reset switch PCB, they current one is simply idiotic. Less wires, more functionality!

I'm sure that is what @CAPSLOCKSTUCK has been using.

post # 5670 for me ........on my X 5670 ............ i love numbers....

@natr0n

i had that board a while ago...... @dorsetknob and i both bought one each at the same time....cheap from a German etailer, they had a load of them which sold out pretty quick. When i was using it i had X5650 which i benched @ 4.5 ghz and ran at 4.4ghz

I put an E5640 in it with 12gb triple channel Corsair ram and a good friend of mine uses it for gaming with an R9 380 that he bought off @Tatty_One . I bought the HD 6970 back off him when he upgraded and it went in an E 5620 build for someone else.

Here it is playing Project Cars with h/t off with X 5670

Here is my best o/c with X 5670 on the MSI Pro-e

i havent been very well the last few days and havent been motivated to ressurrect the one that just got back from repair......i dont hold much hope for it because it fuckin stinks of burning. it looks like this at the moment.

I think me and Dorset paid about £ 70.00 each for ours and the price has doubled since then ( 18 months or so ago). I replaced mine with the ASUS Rog ii extreme that i have now.

79 Euro's ( at the time ) with 17 euro's postage ( from Germany to UK in 4 days ) price when supplier was down to last few was over 200 Euro's
like Caps i do not regret buying this board ( Still using mine ) its been Rock Steady with absolutely no Problems

I Know both @CAPSLOCKSTUCK AND MYSELF PUT LINKS TO The Ebay Seller on forum at the time as these boards were a bargain untill the price crept up at the end
I Would not Hesitate to buy another board ( at our original or near that price )

Nope

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Nov 5, 2016

@Durvelle27

now that you have lived with your X5650 and RX 480 rig for a while-----do you think you are losing much in performance by not using a more recent gen cpu ?

@Knoxx29

same question to you about your SR-2 and 1080

Recon-UK · Nov 5, 2016

I don't know what to think of this.

Sandy Bridge-EP vs Westmere-EP

Sandy has 8C/16T and obviously Westmere has only 6C/12T

But the performance increase does not scale as much as people brag about?

Well considering I've used Sandy, Haswell, Bulldozer, Vishera (most recent builds) i'd say no

Benchmarks aside. In the majority of games I play I haven't noticed any loss of performance or performance decrease and mind you i'm running a higher res now then I did with the previous rigs. All most all games I can play on ultra @1440P with 60+ FPS and minimum dips

Less than 1.1 eur per thread, plus this chip is a gem for OC

Interesting tho, I had IOH and ICH at 1.22/1.20 respectably, and when tested, I passed 30 runs of linx but would fail on 37th run...

I put them down to 1.16/1.10, I do 50 pass with ease now...lower voltages ftw

they should have disabled 2 of the cores on the sandy and downclocked the 5680 a bit for a better comparison.

Never even tried to see how my 2 clock sadly

Mine does 4GHz with 1.19 in bios, 4.2 with 1.26, random non LinX testing up to 4450Mhz at 1.3

I am more than happy with my current Machine.

I never thought that those X5675 + the 1080 would perform that well, i play at 2560 x 1440 and 90 FPS

I don't regret at all for not using the newest gen TOYS.

The same here.

Bueeh

Anyone has these? I have them but some are not LP's so it looks like crap. I need two of those... but without that Nazi US shipping tax. BTW those are samsung greens, they overclock like mad.
