Hahahaha time will tell my friend and please dont yell lmao!!!

Ok so your using the fan housing as a spacer hey?....(no fan blades in the middle) kinda works like a tunnel ram hey!!! :D:rockout::rockout::rockout::rockout:

I didnt even notice i was in caps dude sorry!!


yeah it is only a spacer, no fan blades, nothing, 100% empty. Kinda made my own swiftech radbox, for free because the fans were bad and old, so I figured i'd get something out of them :)

:toast:

For some reason mine worked best when it was matched or close to the CPU voltage. oh well all chips are different!
i read a long time ago that you either set the cpu to its perfured volts and left cpu nb volt on auto or ya leave the cpu volt on auto and use the cpu-nb volt!!! fuke me!!!!! she has been stable for 30min at the last cpuid valid i just posted..... Im on to something CP :twitch:
Ok going for another Mark06 bench at the same gpu clock's but higher cpu clock's.... it passed the Wprime 1024m run with this clock so im good to go!!! wish me AMD P luck!!!!:pimp:

and up n up i shall go David!!!! check this out... i know i had a score of 16741 in mark06 but that was using a program to set both gpu core's out to 1100MHz on the memory..... i deleated it and this is my score using the factory MHz on CCC....

man why is your CPU score so low? at 3.3 GHz i scored 4800+? If you would have yours that high you would be close to 17k dude. Anyhow that doesnt matter, the point is getting stable!

WHY? you tell me Bro!!!!! i have the CCC set to



dude give my cpu some credit mate.... at least i show continuity with the test..... im using 10x cpu and10x nb settings!!! this mobo LOVES HIGH NB AND FSB SETTING'S if you want i'll give ya a HT LINK OF 2370 and a CPU NB LINK OF 2607MHz... i just proved it!!!

If that don't tickle ya fancy ill show ya 10x cpu and 11x cpu nb setting!!!!with this mobo i JUST TONIGHT FOUND OUT THAT she loves the high Nb link speed!!!! :pimp:

dude it could be vista I suppose. I never got to run my Phenom with vista, not that I can remember. Vista does hurt Phenoms alot!!! BTW thats a good nB speed dude, i never got it stable that high.

hey Brad, here are the shots you wanted:

The fan spacer closest to the rad is screwed directly into the rad by short screws, and the one to the case as the through screws as you see

thats a pretty darn good review. For some reasons I'm a bit dissapointed at the numbers though, it is faster than the current Phenoms, but AMD should have tried to do a bit better, I know they can. THe chips starts to get sick once it hits high clocks, but then again thats only achieveable wiht extreme cooling. Regardless its a huge improvement and im dying to have one of my own :D. But competition is getting too good to settle for something like this, AMD has to step up their game.

I am also a little dissapointed on the numbers. BTW it's just a Preview not a Review. One thing that striked me a little was the default wPrime 2 result (13.765s). Of course I can't do a fair comparison because I have my NB/HT link @ 2.4GHz and 1066 RAM.

But why on earth AMD dropped the default NB speed from 2GHz to 1.8GHz...

yeah I mean at 3.2 GHz I did 11.9, meaning it is probably not any quicker at all that my Phenom

then 4400 cpu score points at 3.0 GHz, which is about the same the current gen phenoms do. They needed to have a faster, much faster chip clock for clock, and apparently they dont.

Just for comparison, here is a Wprime run with my i7, on 4 threads meaning no HT enabled. with everything open, if i closed some apps it'll drop a lot. I didn't expect AMD to get a chip out there faster than the i7, but they should've at least gotten a bit closer, they still got lotta catch up work to do.

i'll be posting in my new thread about the 79-T mobo... since CP is an Intel fan boy now... thx :cool:

Where is your new thread? I was supposed to pick all my gear up on the 24th but some more bill came in and pushed it to the 9th of Jan. So I'll be putting off the mods for a while and just doing the build and getting right into the tweaking.

I was wondering CP, the 9850 thread is a low voltage OC thread and I'll be tweaking for max OC. Is there a regular 9850 OC thread?
