Asus P5E3 Dlx + TG DDR3-1333 + Q6600 4.1Ghz Air Cooled

[Pedro Rocha]

Doing some tests with the Asus P5E3 Deluxe Wifi and a pair of TeamGroup XtremeD3-1333 (probably one less expensive in the market)

First a photo:

I must say that I'm impressed with quality of Asus P5E3 - the "ASUS 3rd Generation 8-phase Power Design" seems to be quite efective with QuadCores.

Also the board components seems to be quite cold, specially the PWM e chock area - that is crucial for OC stability :yepp:

With load calibration on the vcore drop on load is almost inexistent..

Here is a quick result with the Q6600 G0 air cooled :

Not bad ;)

The TG sticks, considering its low price for DDR3, give nice results and go easy to DDR3-1500 (750Mhz) at 7-7-7-19 with only 1.9v.


And now some 3Dmark 2006 action with a 8800ulta with stock cooler and low oc

16K easy :D

With the Q6600 air cooled, pass all test at 4GHz with no problem..


And finally Cinebench :

This mobo and mem sticks really do a nice X38 DDR3 combo and for a quite accessible price :up:

:cool:
