Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of is the thermal tape removing an IC. I have my Corsair Dominator fan on them. I'll have to take the laser temp thingy home from work and measure temps.Quote:

Yes it does, I just built one for my boss's office PC. I used that board and E7400 with some Corsair XMS DDR2-800 2x1GB sticks. I ran it at either 400fsb x9 for 3600 or 425fsb x8 for 3400 with RAM 1:1 and it was quick! I could have ran it higher but didn't as it he wouldn't of noticed. I would recommend replacing the stock cooler and using a case with some room for a couple 120mm fans. 1 for front and 1 for rear as usually but if you can get one on the side to blow at the motherboard that would be great!Quote:

Thanks again!
I never posted my results of my Q9650 @450x9, well, here it is.

took me 3 weeks to fully stablize it but now it 100% stable :)

For you extreme overclockers....something better than AS5 !!!

I would like to know, ehich one is for you the last stand for vcore on a quad for 24/7 on air??
very nice:up:Quote:

yea i did the exact same thing.only it was by accident.i went from the P5Q-deluxe,in hopes of something better(i thought if it cost more it must be better)so i got the M2F.but i died and as luck would have the day newegg first got and posted the UD3P for sale i was looking for a cheap board to hold me over till my M2F got back from RMA.and what a surprise these boards turned out to be.
half the price and two or three times the performance.anyways your in good company here.a lot of happy and helpful members here to help out,but it looks like your doing great as is:up:
keep us updated on your 9650-UD3R endeavours
looking good already:D
Thanks mate! Yeah, I was surprised what this board could do compared to the M2F. With the UD3R lower voltages needed compared to the M2F and especially the damn GTL Ref on the M2F, that was a pain! LOL!Quote:

If that doesnt work try going up one notch on your MCH Reference to .890
If that doesnt work bump the MCH ref back to .850 and try going up a couple notches on your CPU Vcore. If it still fails, set everything back to stock and open prime and let it run a couple hours. If your 1066mhz ram fails at 1066mhz with no overclock then you know the problem. Or just run memtest.
I have 3-45nm quads and all will do 4.0ghz on less than 1.30v vcore (bios), I think it is your settings or like you said, your Ram
Under Advanced BIOS settings, at the bottom. Set "Init Display First" to PEG, default is PCI. Maybe nothing but on my GTX I freeze or crash if that is set to PCI not PEG.
well i am so damn happy with my new E8400 EO vid 1.23.now that i got another kit of cellshock pc8000 im having more fun and more options.
i decided to see what the lowest vcore i could use at 9x445@4005 and it turns out that i can drop it down two notches below default vcore:D
and the cellshock at almost ddr1200 with only 2.08vdimm:up:
so heres 9x445@4005 with 1.21 bios/1.18 cpuz load ddr1186 w/2.08v
http://i40.tinypic.com/dnzsld.jpg
i just tried 450x9@4050 w/1.18v and ddr1200 w.2.08v
and it's priming just fine :D:up:
http://i43.tinypic.com/kf1f2d.jpg
THIS CPU ROCKS:D
im happy your are happy mate :up:Quote:

I tried running my MCH lower, 1.38v and upped my vtt to 1.28v. But i got an error, I guess I need 1.40v MCH....
yes on my system i have to go for 1,4MCH as im always over 1170Mhz with the Gskill on Turbo Profile, if i remember you are on turbo profile also mate, maybe it can handle it good if you go for standard, but with thight timmings it'll ask for more at least in my case...Quote:

1m Pi 9x500@4500 w/1.32v ddr1200 pl8 w/2.18v

32m Pi 9x500@4500 w/1.32v ddr1200 pl8 w/2.18v

1m Pi 9x512@4608 w/1.34v ddr1228 w/2.2v

32m Pi 9x512@4608 w/1.34v ddr1228 w/2.2v
http://i40.tinypic.com/x1han9.jpg
1mPi 9x523 w1.36v
http://i43.tinypic.com/vpavyv.jpg
and finally 8.5x530@4500 w/1.34 ddr1272 w/2.24
all runs use basicly the same settings except vcore and vdimm and vMch/vtt
http://i39.tinypic.com/34ryhsn.jpg
its nice to finally have a cpu that needs so little vcore.
i havent had to use more than 1.36v so far:D
when i get better cooling i'll be able to go 1.39v and see what
it really can do:up:
@radaja
Please, could you put in your bios-settings in this Code when running your CPU with for example 4,5 Ghz? If you didnt set manually please put in auto or standard.
Thx & greatings...
