Thanks for all your help, it is much appreciated,

try it first like you want to see how the temps work out and the overclock.
Will do, then I'll report back... but it might be a few, the parts are all coming from different e-tailers (best prices).
Thanks again for all the great info/help
Here's my mosfet block. Only had cheapo drill-press, B&D RTX (dremel), and hack-saw, files, etc.... I just used the stock TIM pad, as the mosfets definitely weren't level with each other. It's at the end of my 2nd loop - 8800GT>SB>NB>PWM. D-tek 1/2" G-1/4" barbs
Keeps PWM at 37c if you can trust the sensors.

It's mounted to #4-40 studs with a 3/16" aluminum back-plate with 1/16" neoprene rubber insulating it.
Just got OS installed, and some stuff set up. Waiting for lines to bleed out (still a few bubbles here & there). Then I'll start OCing.

vdroop mod helped the q6600 B3 get from 3.6 to 3.8 with same settings in bios as i had for 3.6... :p: :) :D
idle 1.55v
load 1.54v
620ohms was perfect...
Hey guys. First time poster here just letting everyone know my new purchase. On Sunday night i ordered a E8400 cpu and a Abit IP35 Pro. Should be shipping today since yesterday was MLK day. Anyway what can i expect when i start this bad boy up? any type of things i should watch out for when overclocking it? And i am def. going to do the cooling mod that Ace posted as well as lapping my proc. I have heard some things about the dual boot issue and was wondering how it can be fixed? Also, when is the next bios rev. coming out? I know the 16 is in beta right now so anyone know when it will be in its final stage? Appreciate all the help guys. Cant wait to get this bad boy running!!:)
Hi I got myself an Abit IP35 Pro motherboard, Q6600 processor, and a 8800GT graphics card. My first problem is that uGuru reports CPU temps lower than what Coretemp reports. If I chane the uGuru Mode to Normal sometimes my CPU fan is switched off. Is this a known problem? I have uninstalled uGuru and did not have the problem since. My Bios is ver 14 and the uGuru version is the one which shipped with the mobo. Everything is at stock.
My second question is that I have bought a HR03 GT cooler for the 8800Gt card. There are two installation methods. Can anybody please tell me whether the wrap around method works with this borad? I want to fix a 92 mm fan also on that Heatsink.
First time poster here. Thanks.
the cpu fan header is designed for intel heatsink and fan...it has problems with ordinary 3 pin fans...i recommend switching to AUX 1 or 2.
cpu temp from uguru or bios interpolated temp; this is a known problem for all mobo's...coretemp is the most accurrate since it is sensing from the DTS sensors....if you are using a kentsfield, 65nm cpu, the DTS readouts are probably very accurate...but...if it is a 45nm processor, the DTS has problems itself of producing accurate temp readouts.
read this article which indicates intel has a QC problem with these newer 45nm processors and DTS reading:

oh yea forgot to add that my mobo is rev v1.1 and the vdroop mod works.:up: as some were saying it does not.
Can someone point me in the direction of the "vdroop mod" for this board...
I've heard many talk of it but I haven't seen any links?
EDIT: Nm, found it http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=152233
BassKozz, yes thats Johnny Bravo go page 2 middleways down,you will see how the vmod is done.
Thanks Ace.
Can anybody please post a pic of a HR03 GT+8800Gt with this board? I want to have a look how this combo fits before I try it myself
TIA.
So did anyone nail down an answer on when we will get half multiplier support?
so how well does the psu of the board hold up with only a 4phase setup and 3 fets per phase.. i am seriously considering this for a build now.. i am hearing not to use 4 phase for a quad oc..any issues with overheated fets.. i am seeing some with other boards with only a 4 phase setup and the fets melting down

Has anybody managed to get memory working at 600? I've tried all the dividers voltages and bioses. No way
Could be the memory in use .. here is an old run on GeIL modules.

Is the beta bios supposed to give better OC?
Ive tried both Beta 03 and Beta 04 but my cpu seems to be running fairly warm even with watercooling. two cores are running @ between 38 and 40 celcius on Idle.
Anybody with 8500? Confirm that .5multi is working? I've sent an e-mail to abit 3 days ago but no reply yet.
