nice, i just hit 3.8Ghz bench stable, havne't crashed yet. how much further you think i should push it? i'm at 1.465v at 3.817Ghz.

also what should i be pushing my chipset too... like i don't know what multiplier or v to use??

currently i'm just running 200x19. gonna try for 4ghz, if i'm lucky i'll get a screen for you guys.

See if you can get it OCCT at that speed. If you are OCCT stable, then it's worth pushing more. You can take that chip up to 1.55v. Do you have screenies?

I want to see. Is it AM3 ready?

Of course! Any 790 series chipset will do Phenom II's, the only TRUE AM3 boards are DDR3, but the 945, 950 etc have DDR2/DDR3 controllers so they work with both. A 940 or 920 will not do DDR3 tho.

my cpu score is actually pretty low for that speed its the wonderful NV drivers ati gets ~400pts more same clocks. cpu is @1.55v and NB multi is @14x



again this is untweaked ill rerun it later with the NB@3ghz and cpu clocked higher with DDR1250

So here are some benchies, i'll throw up more as i think em up. figured i'd show ya'll how a mid range nvidia board works out.

also just a bit about the cooling used. Currently this chip is still clothed, i'll get the ihs off sooner or later but i'm using an ultra120 extreme and panaflo fan inside an antec 1200 to cool everything.

and here are the complete specs

Amd Phenom II 940 black edition 200x19 @ 1.47V
Asus M3N-HT Deluxe
2x1 Gig patriot ddr2 1150 5,5,5,15 @ 2.1V (speed now is at 1066Mhz)
2x eVGA 8800gts 512 @ 800/1920/2150
bfg ES 800watt
g.skill 64Gb ssd
2x 7200.11 320 gig sata 2 barracuda.

here is the 3dmark06 link: 18k 3dmark

780a

btw cd, many thanx to you, you were not only my inspiration in getting an nvidia board, all of you're posts on your build throughout the forums have been an immense help in me getting this going. thank you so much. please point out anything else you think i should work on that could be fixed.

780a likes pushing the bus and your HT can go alot higher ;)




try some settings like that


cpu is @1.6v though mine is a way early stepping yours will not need anywhere near that voltage

so if i do 220x18 what should i set the memory at 800 or 1066?

1066mhz mkae sure you give the cpu enough volts and bump HT to 1.34v
