They won't get rid of them.

On any other platform this chip has maxed out at ~530FSB, so the increase is indeed very massive.

I am not really sure if the difference comes from the chipset or tampered VTT, but there is a difference and it is huge.

The only thing we need now is a DDR3 version of TPower I45 ;)
Even at 1:1 mode the memory is becoming the limiting factor very easily.

GOOD to see you again Stilt :D
Thought you dident OC anymore ?

Yes we still ned an explanation on why the boards are so evil fsb and Ghz wise ?

I dont think so..

I have yet to see a P45 DDR3 board that clocks ok, the DDR2 ones are fine...its just the DDR3 versions that suck bad.

My advice, P5E3 Premium/DFI T3R for DDR3, P45 for massive FSB DDR2

Offtopic: Tony, which bios is that you're talking about which would bring DFI T3RS to the level of memory clocking close to P5E3 Premium? Personally I haven't found such one yet :D

Hello guys,
can you give me some info about the ratio for the ram please before I buy this motherboard.
can someone make a screenshoot of the bios screen?

This is results thread, just look for a review thread. They post bios screens in those.
