First look Biostar TA790GX A3+ & Phenom II X4 955 -> 4246Mhz air

Biostar's TA790GX3 A2+ and Tpower X58 has been my main priority but the last few hours i've had the pleasure of playing with new AM3 based system, a sample of TA790GX A3+(almost a retail version) and an AMD Phenom2 X4 955 BE from my source.

vcore at auto -> 1.344v

its not so hard to reach 4200MHz on air
vcore at 1.456v (good for screen)

the max screen at 4246MHz vcore @ 1.504v

4100MHz pi1m stable and i tried a Pi32m at same frequency but it freezes at start

Thanks to Biostar for supplying great hardware to test.

Only need 2917, should be short order with the higher bandwidth of ddrIII, 4k very realistic I think with 1800+ ram speeds.

The IGP BW goes like this?

1800 (DDR3) * 64bit (32bit dual channel) / 8 Is that right?

14.4GB/s

For comparison: X2 + DDR2 800 + sideport + 256MB
Crysis 1.1 @800x600 low + vsync + triple buffering
33fps~
