P5B DLX will be better :)

[ANP !!!]

Woah.. awesome Air Cooling results :toast:

[Rol-Co]

tried kentsfield two weeks ago on the p5b-e , running good but less on phase and getting very hot arround that area....
like you said already , better p5b deluxe

have you tried 9x?
i got BSD @ 9 x 370/380/390400...

[LyP0]

how does the p5b-e plus compare to the p5b-e ? because its like the same mobo donly diffirence i can see is thats its black. The price here in holland is 155.90 for plus and 139.90 for normal -e. So i'd realy like to know how it is, especialy with quad core. Could you plz try if the fsb with c2q also goes up to 600, or is this max fsb ?
thanks

I believe the main difference lies within the vdimm settings. The deluxe and premium flavors have higher options.

With that said if you have some DDR2 that can push some good frequencies without a lot of voltage, the P5B-e is a good choice.

wow your PSU doing??

can PSU: Zippy [GE] 600w can really handle an oced quad core and a 8800gtx???

Lucky JP :D

How do it will cost send 1 to Portugal ? +$?

[sierra_bound]

Nice results, Junior. What are the temperatures like under load?

[freecableguy]

Give us your max ORTHOS stable frequency - all 4 cores loaded. At least 4 hours. Please (I realize this is a time taker) - if you can't supply this info, no big deal. Thanks.

That's more expensive than here in Finland :eek: Here the QX6700 is 970 euros (=little bit under 1300$).

[kiwi]

Yep, just checked prices in Europe
UK oem cpu: £700 ~ $1350
Germany: 930EUR ~ $1200
This includes high VAT/sales tax

heh, newegg is ripping US guys off :p:

lol it was 1499 a few hours ago :D

[dinos22]

pricing is crazy

lucky AMD just released more than half priced quad cores....hopefully Intel will respond soon....wouldn't mind a quad core myself :D

pricing is out of Intel's hands...thats all Newegg and they seem to like that people will pay that.

yah, it is all newegg.

even amazon had them in stock for a bit at 1100 with free shipping (retail).

there are other us retailers only charging ~1100ish.

erwinz, quad core kentfield with 1.45vcore and 8800gtx only pulls about 400W. It isnt like these things demand insane power supplies.

His zippy would have no problems handling another 8800gtx.

[PcCI2iminal]

QX6700+8800GTX ?
thats bad....
:(

[guess2098]

btw for the vdroop, it is actually a bug in box qx67 with p5b series
if you measure the vcore, during loading, it is actually much higher

that is what andre told me

Newegg is really screwing you guys. Order from Ncix up here in Canada. I got my X6700 and a Bad Axe 2 for $1575 CDN, plus they threw in a free copy of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. Just waiting for TT120 to show up to throw everything together.

The batch / FPO for my Kentsfield is L635A693 .

Interestingly enough, Theinquirer.net did some test with two 8800GTX's in SLI, a 680i motherboard, and a X6700 and found that the power usage never peaked 500 watts! Seems like the power consumptions stats for the G80 were highly exagerated.

[Rol-Co]

have you tried 9x?
i got BSD @ 9 x 370/380/390400...

the board i had was a p5b-e , so not the plus version , didn't try multi 9 but multi 7 x500 , he didn't do that.
maybe jou should try 450x8 , running between 380-400 is on the lower strap maybe the board got some trouble with that.

p5b-e without the plus got same bios options as the deluxe, also 2,45v on the memory.

the drop is huge on the B series , also on p5b deluxe, running 400x9 here @1,52v bios with 8800gtx @ default and same score 2006 (12300)

What kind of cooling are you using that is allowing you to pump that much vcore into the cpu? I have mine running on a P5WDG2 WSPRO at 3.5GHz @ 1.40vcore and with good water cooling and my temps are a little scary. After seeing this thread, I'm gonna drop the quad core in my P5B.

no big deal on P5B-E ,the drop sux.... :(


why dont try vmods;)

no worries about temps

its the family pc and this board will never see extreme cooling or mods

I just dropped my kentfield into my P5B Deluxe running 0804 bios but in the bios it's not making any mention of it being at Quad Core Extreme 2? Also, for some reason the temps being reported by coretemp are almost 30 degrees higher than what Asus probe is showing me and at idle running at stock speed it's showing from 51-57 with core 0 close to 57 consistently??? Any ideas?

[Elisha]

what is the advantage of disabling all the cpu settings?
did it make higher FSB more stable?
i have mine as:
disable
disable
disable
enable
enable

pls advice.

no incoveniance :)



thanks m8 ,......sold the chip waiting for my B3
