Is there a good thread/guide to overclocking with this board? It has so many more options than my DS3 and I'm scratching the head a little.

unfortunately I did not have enough time to test every setting and it's overall impact, some I am still working with. Some of the settings will require user input over time like this one. Any input will be added to the thread you mention..Quote:

wonder by how far is the benefit of the enzotech northbridge heatsink over the stock one ?
I have one of this, but whats max FSB overclock? Whats i can expects?
hmm, heatsinking the mosfets do anything good? I'm worried about airflow since it's all water. guess the bottom fan of the psu will draw air up and out
The temperature of this mobo is quite good. The NorthBridge (Enzotech) and MOSFET are warm only when it is full load. ;)
QuadGT is god damn hot :slapass:
some quick results
500X8, RAM sub-timings not yet tuned, just set 4-4-4-9 <==smallest is "9" in BIOS, others are Auto ;)

Full load at 400X9, 24/7 setting

But I got problem with 400FSB at 4:5 ratio, it stopped after POST. I still not yet updated the BIOS, because I am very hurry to set up the new baby, any good of the new BETA BIOS?
that's some nice auto subtimings you've got except for trfc. You should be able to drop down a lot to say 25 or 28 with ease.
As for 4:5, I think the 402 addressed that, but I can't recall for sure.
I like 25 for Trfc :DQuote:

yup that is fast.. :)Quote:

OK stop it already, I don't have one yet ;) :DQuote:

Now, there's one thing I'm going to be honest about the DFI in particular. A lot of people are saying that this board is some sort of an anomaly with respect to its clock-for-clock performance. Thus far I haven't seen any Pi time that's out of the norm and not achievable with other 965 boards. (FYI, sub-12m has been done by a couple at 4 GHz in 32M) Not that that's a bad thing, but I don't believe its special as far as efficiency goes. Still looks awesome though.
Edit: P.S.- if anyone wants to prove me wrong about the efficiency, please do so. ;)
What about this ;)
Take my word for it, I've done 11:07 at 4.4 flat (400x11 2:3). pp 2934800
He's on the same multi, pp- 3017323.2. Yeah, he's at CAS 5, but that's still a large difference in clock-for-clock performance. Nothing out of the ordinary for the result. If he were breaking into 300x maybe I'd start thinking...
It's been back instock since yesterday, but it was listed for $149.99. Glad they lowered it. Plan on picking one up this weeked from there or Newegg. Whichevers cheaper.Quote:

Love this board so much. :)
damn i should have waited for newegg woulda saved $10, oh well, mine should be here tomorrow, gonna through it under phase this weekend and see what she can do with my 6600
How's quad core overclocking in this thing?
Got mine!
*sigh* I think I want to replace my quad gt with one of these.
What's the max ram speeds people are getting 600mhz possible?
