I experienced that the UD3P is a really good board for FSB and memory overclocking, but for some reason, it is really unstable, and refuses to go through the Superpi 4M on higher FSB..:shrug:

Still Gigabyte did a great job on this one! :up:
I hope to get in the top-5, and can participate in the swedish finals.. whould have been real nice! :)

good job ...

keep pushing it and GL in the competition

Congrats on the WR ( highest validated FSB )

Insane FSB, good work! :up:

Love the UD3P, Great FSB!

wow people just keep pumping the results out with this board.... great work indeed

Very nice result.
I have this board too, damn good.

Αwesome FSB, great mobo!!!

Very nice FSB my friend. Rather big difference between screen and 4M though. I hope its good enough for next round Henry, impressive :up:

Nice!

Just a quick question, GOOC?

Gigabyte open overclocking championship

Really loving what these boards can do. :up: High FSBs and high RAM overclocking capability and for this price. :D And it's not one or two but many people are having great OCs with them.

try adjust vMCH/Ref (MCH GTLREF)
and notice vMCH/Ref needs to track vTT(vFSB)
like my example, vTT 1.2v, i give vMCH/ref 0.68v
this one just normal air cooling ,and low vtt

Great Job, hope you make to the finals, you the man :up:

Fantastic job :up:
Damn, great
715 Mhz @ 1:1

What about vDIMM, vTT, vMCH? :)

daym, very nice! :toast:
whats the max 3d stable fsb?

That's a very good clocking there, Me4Me, keep on pushing it higher! :up:

Very good FSB man, highest i have seen yet. I think u have a good CPU too...

amazing you got FSB ...:up::up:

Nice job ME4ME! and congrats again:)

thanx for the friendly commants :)

@ Hicookie, i see you changed your MCH Reference from 0.65 to 0.68..

but for me, it actually got worse when highering MCH Reference.
I lowered it instead, and got better results! 0.62 was really the sweetpot for me ;)

Very nice FSB ME4ME... Good luck at the competition :up:

insane FSB!!!!

Wow man :clap: nicely done .:eek:

one hell off a fsb Great Job :up:
