Iwill DH800

[lv_dicedealer]

Well, I orderd a DH800 today...

Lets see what she can do on air, then I should be able to afford some water down the road.

So, from personal experience what do each of you feel is the best performing heatsink other than the IWTs for a Nocona style board?

DH800 at Iwill USA (http://www.iwillusa.com/product_2.asp?p_id=25)

Yeah, I kind thought the swiftys would be the ones to get, but didnt know about Nocona hsfs...

PS.. someone's lazy this morning

[Rodzilla]

Me... lazy?!?! :lol:

Will that board OC?

[lv_dicedealer]

There is a HUGE thread on the DH800 (http://forums.2cpu.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50793) over at 2CPU forums.

In that thread (which I havent read all the way through yet, 159 pages), there were reports of oc'ing to 250FSB and higher... so I will see soon enough :toast: . Iwill just released v1.2 of this board a few days ago, which should improve oc'ing without the need to mod the board much if at all. This could be the board to replace the PC-DL for oc'ing Xeons, I guess that I will be the XS guinea pig this time.

I think that the board can adjust vcore for each cpu from bios along with vddr and vio.

Wow! How much cash?

US$359 from Iwill store (http://www.iwillstore.com/product.asp?pf_id=MADH800)

Got the board today and oh my :slobber: :slobber: :slobber: :slobber:

This thing puts the PC-DL to shame (it should really, it is twice the price). And that is just my impression from opening the box and looking at it. I have to wait until Mon or Tues when my ps, mem, kb, and hsf arrive.

I also bought a Coolermaster Stacker to put it in, wow is that a nice case.

Gotta go to bed now, have to choose options on my house at the design center in about 9 hours. :toast:

Sweet! Please keep us posted... as I may switch my main Xeon rig to this board(Using it to crunch D2OL and act as a game/file/web server)

[UCmajewski]

it does look nice but that price .... ouch!

[Helheim]

Does this thing have adjustable vcore and vdimm? AGP/PCI lock? How do you like it so far? Thanks.

[lv_dicedealer]

Just got all the parts for it today and havent had the chance to play with it...

BUT, judging by the screenshots of the bios over at 2cpu forums, there appears to be vdimm and individual vcore adjustment in the bios along a user adjustable pci/agp speeds... awesome is all I can say from the looks of it

[RocKer]

I checked how much it is overhere for that Iwill DH800,and then a went down to the ground in :shock: and stay'd there for 15min,its 405€=526$ :eek2: thats not for me no thks.

[enzoR]

wow

[vapb400]

newegg has refurbed ones for 249 right now.

[lv_dicedealer]

newegg has refurbed ones for 249 right now.

DO NOT BUY THOSE !!

They are not the current version... they are 1.1s which require alot of SMD soldering to get humming along.

The new ones from newegg are v1.2 , which only require you to plug in your favourite Xeon, slap on a hsf and here you go...
NO vdimm mod REQd, NO u-wire REQd :toast:
you can insulate one pin to get the bios to auto-detect @ 200 fsb :toast:
