[OCTH] Rampage 3 Extreme & 980X B0 ES testing

hey guys
last week i got the new Asus flagship board, R3E for testing. i had an ln2 virgin B0 ES so put both under LN2 in 2 sessions and got some decent scores finally. these all are new hungarian records. next step: need to save some money for a good retail Gulftown, bcoz it seems i still have to improve on those cpu clocks, but mobo is GODLIKE, very stable and fast, no annoying bugs.

Intel Core i7 980X B0 ES -130CB
Asus Rampage III Extreme 0402
G.Skill F3-12800CL7D-ECO 3*2GB
Asus EAH5970 CrossFire 900/1000
Asus MARS (for 2D)
Antec TPQ-1200W OC

You made my day...:D

Achill3uS congratulations for the great results
I'm just finish building my 2nd Rig based LGA 1366 and I was wondering if you can help me overclocking my Core i7 920 D0 since it is the same motherboard that I've bought.

Specs

Motherboard: Asus Rampage III Extreme
CPU: Intel Core i7 920 Revision D0
Watercooling:Thermaltake Tribe VX
RAM: G-Skill 3x2048mb ddr3 pc3-12800(1600) cl9 nq tri-channel
VGA: Geforce GTX 285
PSU: NOX 750 Watts

I've achieve the 4ghz but my target is to achieve 4.2ghz and I need help for that, there are some adjustments that I do not know where to tweak.I'm running the RAM at stock.

Here the BIOS pics ------------>

PS I've posted here cause i'm not allowed to open a new thread,thanks for the understanding

Arise, I feel that your NB/SB temps are a bit high :/, and your CPU idle, i would start by manually setting your cpu ratio to 21, and vcore at 1.35, and start working your bclk from there.

Though i would wait for people much more experienced than me :P

I really do love the R3E bios tho, planning to upgrade from R2E :P Maybe R3E would be the first board im going to Ln2 :)

Them temps are the same on my mobo, mailed this to Asus too... heatsink combo is not so effective as it looks...

Ceramique, some washers and a bit of airflow made the IOH on me board go down from 65~70 idle to 40 now (default bios volts).

MARS for 2D :rofl::ROTF: :D

Nice start with gulftown! :toast:
