Some read points i have found.

I'm subscribing to this thread (new user) as I just returned my Infinity P965-S Dark because the freaking squealing it did was driving me nuts.
I'm a little confused here though; I read Evilsizer said it doesn't support 'fsb dividers'; what do you mean? Like, you can't drop the memory divider?
I think that what he means is that they've removed the manually selectable nortbridge strap option in the current BIOS.
I'm new to the Intel 'perfomance computing' scene (been working with AMD systems for the last 5 years though) and I guess I'm not too familiar with that term; can you (or someone else) explain that to me a bit? Or have a link, perhaps?Quote:

need to post up cpu-z in that ss to show the timings and ram speed to fsb.Quote:

I'm very interesting this board!!
My DFI 680i ate my ram, I've been waiting around for these results to decide on a replacement. Only reason I am considering the P35 is because I run a Raid5 array, I'm not really keen on going back to another 680i solution...
HDtach scored my SATA-3 Raid5 at approx 350 burst and 90M read..
Does anyone have Raid-5 benchies for P35, abit or asus?
WR 6400 ???? :rolleyes: This WR is 613x8 or not Coeff 7 :DQuote:

i settled on 8X with 440 FSB...had to fall back from 450 FSB since one of my Dominator DDR2-1142 sticks bit the dust...presently using Teamgroup DDR2-1000...the highest FSB with my Q6600 was to 495 FSB at 7X using the Dominators...Teamgroup could only go to 490 FSB @ 7X...so...3520 Mhz @ 8X OR 3465 Mhz @ 7X ...sligtly better memory bandwidth at the higer FSB...appears to be an even trade off...i prefer raw power over memory bandwidth...years ago, i had the opposite opinion!
[QUOTE=Ace-a-Rue;2257201]...i prefer raw power over memory bandwidth...QUOTE]
Me too that is why I wish Intel would use dividers or find a way to unlink the memory like nvidia. Fast timings and raw CPU horsepower is what I like.
I had the same issue with my old LL PC61USB case--the Thermal Ultra 120 was too tall. I couldn't slide the left door on because the U120 stuck out too much. I was getting tired of working in a mini-tower so I just decided to upgrade to a full size unit.Quote:

Thank you for that. Comparisons always appreciated. :)Quote:

the P35-DS3P is even more affordable than the Abit.
Not that overclockers care but, I read that standby is broken on the Gigabyte boards. I can confirm that it works perfectly on the Abit.Quote:

This board looks promising for sure, and may just be my next upgrade :)
If someone could link up or email me a copy of uguru for IP35 that would be awesome, I left mine in Taipei.

(my Commando's is @400).
nice mboard !
btw did someone test ip35-e or ip35 (non-pro) ???
@logigamer : almost the same
so it is posible that ip35-e has the same max FSB but there isnt any guru otes etc? true?Quote:

Nelly i have seen this few days ago... but like You said there is no information about bios... we must wait
Good luck waiting for bios updates.
everything I've read so far says that it works out of the box though :)
So far I haven't found a need for one. 540FSB and still testing. Though I may have found the FSB wall of my CPU.Quote:

if that's the case great. if something does crop up, expect a 2 to 3 month wait...for a beta. The Quad GT only had about 2 official releases.Quote:

Actually I was referring to SATA issues in general. SoFarFromHome and others have reported several SATA issues. Don't know if they've been resolved or not but thanks for letting me know about the IP35 in this regard.Quote:

I'm wondering if there's a strap in between 400-500 FSB on the IP35 Pro. I've read the DQ6 has a strap change around 417 and some say higher. I'm looking for a board with at least a 485 or higher strap. It will allow me greater flexibility when I go to water.
I have one running orthos at 460 FSB (E6320), Memory at 1:1 for 8 hours and running with no issues on the bench. No squaling. PWM temp is at 46C and CPU at 43C. Cooler is a Zalman 9500.Quote:

Should get it on Thursday, I currently have a lapped 6400 that will do 3.5 easy enough at an 8x multi, I'f its good enough I may replace my AMD rig with a similar setup after the intel price drop and upgrade my CPU too.. we will see.

and yes if Abit cant even get the temp readings right on the NF-M2 Nview... how can we expect them to fix bigger issues on other boards.
the massive overclocks the NF-M2 can do far outweighs the off kilter temps, but temps are extremely important, i would think they would make it more of a priority.
No can do, cant get the bugger to boot. I think it doesnt like my kingston value ram, no beeps, just restarts once and then nothing other than spinning fans. If someone can point me in the direction of some memory that definitely works it'd be appreciated :up: .Quote:

Hi mate, yeah i've tried out the case on the anti static bag but its the same result. The cpu is an e6300 which worked fine when it came out of my ds3, it has stood a few months though so i'll borrow an e2160 tomorrow to double check but I think its the board.Quote:

So I've been reading about the 'Northbridge Strap', and from what I can see, it's the value that 'classifies' what 'quad-pumped' FSB rating you fall under? Depending on your OC you might get bumped to the next 'tier' which may have an adverse effect on performance until you can up the FSB enough to 'match' where it was with the originial strap.
And you can't control that setting with this board?
Sound about right?
@tomati: no squealing here either, friend. Reason I purchased this board was because my Infinity 965 was a piggy and I couldn't stand the sound (louder than my HDDs & VGA fan), I didn't want to pay $300 for the DFI NF 680i, and frankly, I don't like Asus or Gigabyte boards much. I was happy to see that Abit released a P35 board, and even happier when I found this thread about how bada** it is too!
If you return your Infinity grab one of these. It's not much more expensive and is every bit a killer board. :)
take one stick out and try, if it doesnt work move the memorys to the other memory slots and try if it doesnt work go back to the black slot again and tryQuote:

Tried all that, thanks for the suggestion though.Quote:

very impressive board.. defintaly an alternate choice if people dont want to get the p5kdeluxe.. seems to be doing just as well in numbers. Congrats on the great success :)
i unpacked this board looking at it today at the store. The NB is crazy tilted at an angle off the die. its pretty weird, i wonder how much of a effect it would have. i would imagine prretty poor temps in that condition. Will be replacing stock cooling though for some active.
pickin this puppy up tommrow, better be all its cracked up to be. at this point, as long as the thing boots, sees my SATA drives, and runs i'll be happy.
Anyone happen to have a pic of this w/ a HR Ultra-120?
How to find the lastest BIOS?i saw my friend have 06/06 BIOS
I'm very impressed with this board right now and its pricing is way cheaper than the P5K Deluxe.
Now these P35s are what I call 500FSB guaranteed.
Thanks for the results guys.
4GHz (444 X 9) on water for 24/7 with this , possible?
:up:
As long as the CPU can do it and the temps are not ridiculous I believe it is possible.Quote:

I'm planning to get this model for my file server to house my E4300 when I buy a Q6600 to replace it on my main PC. I don't need a board with plenty of fluff, only something reliable with enough overclocking options to push the E4300 to the same ballpark as currently with my BX2.
I've got a Tuniq on the IP35 Pro and the Tuniq's fan bracket comes close to the raised edge of the NB heatsink, the edge towards the back panel, but they never touch and there is a small gap where air can flow between. It's more clearance than a Tuniq on a Striker Extreme, for example, which was just about sitting on the excessively-tall heatpipes. Awesome board and a Tuniq works great on it.Quote:

Has anybody noticed that the dual Gb LAN RTL8110SC/RTL8110SC is on the PCI bus? The following NTttcp ethernet throughput test shows that RTL8110SC is 35% to 40% slower than a PCI Express Gb LAN such as Marvell 88E8056 or Realtek RTL8111B:
http://prohardver.hu/html/lap/965_sh...ults/lansp.png
with higher CPU usage:
http://prohardver.hu/html/lap/965_sh...lts/lancpu.png
Source: PROHARDVER! - Alaplapok Core 2 Duo ala - 2. resz - Nyomtatobarat verzio (January 2, 2007). Typos in these charts:
- "Asus P5B Dlx (Marvell 88E8801)" should be "Asus P5B Dlx (Marvell 88E8001)". 88E8001 is a PCI Gb LAN.
- "ECS PX1 (RTL 8139)" should be "ECS PX1 (RTL8110S)". RTL8110S is a PCI Gb LAN, a variant of RTL8110SC.
Another NTttcp test shows a similar result: ComputerBase - Test: Asus P5K Deluxe WiFi Edition (May 21, 2007)
Another test in The Tech Report - Intel's P35 Express chipset (May 21, 2007) also shows that the PCI Gb LAN 88E8001 is much slower than other PCI Express Gb LANs, though it does not include RTL8110SC.
Abit uses this crappy PCI Gb LAN solution in AB9 QuadGT too. There are only 6 PCI Express lanes in the southbridge. In these motherboards, the lanes are assigned as follows:
- 4: PCI Express x16 slot at x4
- 1: PCI Express x1 slot
- 1: IDE controller
while in ASUS P5B/P5K series motherboards with two PCI Express x16 slots,
- 4: shared by the PCI Express x16 slot at x4 and the PCI Express x1 slot (x4 is automatically slowed down to x2 when x1 is used)
- 1: IDE controller
- 1: PCI Express Gb LAN
I am getting this board soon, can someone post the bios setting for the board?
Thanks
If you want something better than onboard lan just buy an intel pci-e x1 card. It will be better than any onboard lan anyways. I haven't had any problems with these PCI realtek chips while I have had problems with PCI-E Marvell chips before.Quote:

I plan on a beefy heatsink but this is what the stock can do and what to expect out of the box.
I need to tighten up the memory, these are the new PDP 4GB Kit modules.
Well got mine up and running. Killed the first setup of vista that I transfered from my 965 setup playing with the ram speeds, borked it up good.
Anyways got it to 540fsb with my 6600. 6multi or voltages would not change this which is the same wall I got on my dfi 965-s. I think its the cpu wall but I am not sure. Probably is, anyways uses less volts for the oc's compared to 965 boards.
The pi time is bad jsut there for reference i guess.
One thing is the pwm cooler was barely touching half of the pwm's but covered the nb good. Took it off anyways and cut up a aluminum hdd cooler and put that on the pwm's they stay pretty cool havnt scene them above 50c I think.
