Oh yeah.... GIGABYTE X58A-OC

Quick bench (literally an hour) with the new GIGABYTE X58A-OC....

No CB with triple channel with vtt lower then 1.45

Chip really doesn't like vtt higher.. raises cb.

Stay tuned,

Another one hehe! Triple channel and these clocks... 990+x58 cookie edition, the way it's meant to be benched :D

tripple channel and no CB

Son of a b@#$% :D

Looks good, maybe time for some 32M...if you care about that bench :p:

thats awesome ..i regret to work on the following weekend lol

you guys live near by?

im westcoast...his in eastcoast ...we was planning some benching together..

Can anyone tell me how the X16 slots 1 and 3 behave electrically if they are combined with X1 cards in slots 2 and 4? Do they still run at X16? I asked this in the other thread but no answer.

Hi mate

If you have all 4x slots populated the bandwidth will drop down to 8x on all slots OK no matter that slots 2 and 4 will only use 1x.

If you have say SLOT1 with a GPU and you plug in a raid card and sound card say in slot3 and 4 you will still get full 16x bandwidth in slot1 for the GPU, it will not drop to 8x

Wow, ES sample and board, must be magic!

not magic...simply steponz skills SSS lol

Thank you sir. Much appreciated.

Have you tested that cpu on some other board? :)

Nope new chip.. just got it this week.. was looking forward to the board coming..

The board is awesome.
This is a killer setup without cb...:D

I'm wondering how different this board is compared to other (R3E/UD9/Class). Is there any progress in CB/CBB?

1.oc touch is a super upgrade from ud9/r3e/evbot

very impressive especially for only playing with it for an hour

Nice one, rocking clocks there !!!

Xtreme Voltage XD

Look nice :D

Sounds cool!

Make some video of it ... would be nice seeing/hearing you guys bench :D

Awesome man =)

32m would be pretty sick at these clocks.. I'm planning on 3d though.. and another round of some more efficient short 2D..

Need to pick up some more LN2 though..

The board is a dream to work with... OC Touch with multi and bclk, make it pretty easy to find max clocks...

Stay tuned...

Im tuned
