Congratulations. Great HT-Link. :up:

What voltage-setting do you use for 3+ ghz?

Hopefully I can get my Crosshair III back to life and have some fun with it. :yepp:

1.45v HT and 1.65v cpu

Use 3D03 to gauge performance increases with HTLink, 3D01 blows on AMD. Impressive HTLink speeds :up:

Thanks for information. :)

My board is back in life, seems that a flaky bios-chip caused my issue.

I doubt there are any speed improvements, unless he were running dual or triple graphics cards are really high frequencies.

Well yeah, why else would you want high HTT clocks :p:

yep it is i have gone higher but not with this board BIOS issues....

NV780A got higher up

I can bench stable with HT 3250MHz on X4 955, not too far, next time I will bench with HT higher that :D

God damn!!!

That is insane overclocking!!

I wish that I had built a PII rig instead of my Core i7... I used to only ever build systems with AMD chips, and I never had any trouble with them, but this time I decided to move over to Intel because of all the stuff I had read about them, so I went ahead and built a rig using the Gigabyte EX58 UD5, and a D0 Stepping Core i7 920, and I have had nothing but problems with it from day 1...

I can't even get the system stable @ stock frequency, and I have tried absolutely every possible hardware config with all the gear I have lying around the house, and each setup give me the exact same results...

I bought another set of RAM and new PSU for testing, I have tried 3 GFX cards, 3 SATAII HDD's, built the system outside the case with bare minimum connected, and again I get the exact same problems...

I RMA'd the processor, and the motherboard, and they have both been tested and have been found not faulty!!!

And the other hardware has been tested on another system and they are all working perfectly... I personally thought it was the mobo that was giving me my problems, but the guys I bought it from say that it is fine... so I really don't know what else to do...

I should have just stuck with AMD instead of switching over to Intel.....

What are you using to cool your CP?U??

my OP was done on DICE the cpu can clock alot higher than that but it was done to push the HT link speed.

whau, nice cdawall, brutal HT clock :). How is diferent HT 2000 and HT 3000MHz in benchmarks?
