Hey, hey.. Looky who got their board :up:
Have fun reading through the 3000+ threads. :D
Ah just giving him some crap hes the one that really did it in for me on this board. Haven't had a chance yet to play with the settings that you suggested yet. Actually not sure if my ram will do 500Mhz, I know I've gotten them to 480Mhz but still wasn't sure if they where stable at that time.
Will pumping that much into the NB it it to excessively hot, since right now I do not have a fan directly blowing on it? I don't have a fan to fit the NB properly yet, got an old P4 fan that I plan on mounting onto it after I get it down to size and slap my CPU fan on the top side of the heatsink to suck air through it. Just going from what my old P35 chipset was and it acted OK without the fan blowing onto it and that was the stock cooler giving it 1.5V.
Well I think I have to dial in my ram a little more and get a feeling for it. I tried your pull settings zsamz and it works at default, but crashes when I try OCing it. Wouldn't even take at 1.55V NB for 400FSB. Backed it down to 1.4V and works with everything on auto so far for 400Mhz. Decent temps too, used smartguardian to read the NB temps. Hovering in the low 40's currently.
guys, i jut upgrade to DFI Lanparty Dark X38 T2R from DFI Lanparty Dark P35 T2RS , anyone know how to get 500x8 or how to pass over 500 fsb , also anyone can guide me how to setting the bios, please help guys, i tried 500x8 and it wont boot, please need help
@zsamz
which gtl , all gtl to 61-63%?
sorry if im not reading all off the thread, i cant wait to try 500x8 :D
and what should i do with this:
CPU Clock Amplitude
CPU Clock Skew0
CPU Clock Skew1
GTL + Buffer stregth
Host Skew Rate
CPU GTL 0/2 REF Volt
CPU GTL 1/2 REF volt
North Bridge GTL REF Volt
please need guide here

Hey guys, i've been searching this thread for couple of days about a problem i'm having with my mtron mobi drive and bsod with this mobo.
I've been trying to install winxp64 and get the bsod after the first reboot.
It installs fine on a raptor. i'm running everything stock settings. My next step is to upgrade the bios. Any suggestions or ideas of other things to try are appreciated

New bios - dated 14/7/2008
LANPARTY LT X38-T2R
Major Reasons of Change:
1. Fixed system can not display with some Graphic card.
2. Optimized system O.C. function.
3. Fixed on board audio record function.
4. Fixed “Execute Disable Bit” function fail.
dose that mean that it will do the 3870x2 now
... and again, this is still not an official release yet. Unbelievable. DFI, you are slipping, in a bad shape.
Looks like internal NB Timings have been relaxed as performance is worse:

Settings are identical except for Vcore and disabled EIST/C1E. My previous 24/7 stable OC wasn't stable anymore and currently I'm trying to find the reason.
It seems to be stable again with stock Vcore and Special Add 100.70%. Although performance is worse I could not lower Vnb, seems that CPU load on NB eats up everything. Currently, I'm not impressed.Code:CPU Feature

I'm gonna try the new bios... maybe this one lets me go over FSB 450 :rolleyes:
Hi, New to this much of detailed Bios for Overclocking (came from NF4 Mobo so simple easy BIOS).
But with my DFI X38 mobo and Q6600 G0, what would be your guys recomend for max CPU VTT Voltage? Trying to see how high I can get this beast, but with Air cooling my Volts are limited. Currently my CPU VID Control is at 1.4000v) and that seems to be about the max I really want to go(maybe 1.42 if really needed,@ 1.4v I see Low 60's on all cores after couple hours of Prime95).
current Set up is:
357x9= 3213mhz @ DDR2 1073
CPU VID = 1.4000
Dram Volts= 2.12
NB Volts= 1.504v
CPU VTT v.= 1.442v
Any kind of help would be great, searched through all posts couldn't see anything that would help me alot, but if I missed something a quote and your a idiot would be great :)
Now that I've had alittle time to settle in with this board and play some games I want to tinker :D
Can anyone tell me why the heck this board overvolts 45nm CPU's sooo damn much? I'm pretty such i'm using the 3/14/2008 bios with SLAPL rev CO/MO batch Q815A086 5/28/08 E8400 1.25V max.
Yes, I do have Vdroop option enabled.
Just to let you know first, after I set a CPU VID then save and reboot, if I go into the bios at the bottom of that same screen you can see the actual voltage being received(which never match the CPU VID). In those actual voltages received the CPU Core's Voltage matches Everest and CPU-Z readings spot on.
Bios CPU VID 1.2200~ AUTO = 1.184 CPU-Z/Everest/Bios
Bios CPU VID 1.12500 = 1.168 CPU-Z/Everest/Bios
Bios CPU VID 1.16250 = 1.200 CPU-Z/Everest/Bios
Bios CPU VID 1.18125 = 1.232 CPU-Z/Everest/Bios
Is this because vdroop enabled? I haven't noticed any drop in the programs when I'm at load... this is a ton of overvolting.. Why so much?
Someone explain to this noob :confused: .. and why the heck does the auto do the opposite of the others? :mad: :shakes:
I'm prime95'ing at VID 1.12500 = 1.168 CPU-Z/Everest etc right now. I tried to run 400x9 on stock auto settings but bluescreened loading vista hehe... oh well. I have a feeling it's not the vcc that is the cause anyway.
Any help? :yepp:
What can we expect on FSB wise, 600FSB and over or less....I managed to get 600FSB with my DFI P35 LP UT T2R
Seeing that you're located in South Africa I don't know really, but you can use almost any block for the NB. I use some cheap Alphacool NSB block but many other are working, too. Problem with the UT is, if you unmount the heatpipe you're gonna have to deal with Sb and PWM, too. SB is no problem, any small cooler will do. PWM, well. You'd either need the passive PWM cooling of a P35/X38 LT which is great, or something like this:
http://home.arcor.de/partywg2/temp/CIMG1063.JPG
Mips PWM block, really love it so far cause it uses titan nano grease instead of a conductive pad, also cools the pulse modulator chips (they get :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing hot) and looks slick. Got PWM temps of around water + 15 which is great for a 4Ghz Q6600.
