M3A79-T Seriuosly HIGH VOLTS,,not for the weak

Hmmm all these talks about the new board Im thinking I should just go ahead and order one myself and see what this chip can do :D

Nice Work goTVoltage:up::up:

Im only runing 11x 120fans and some other stuff not to mention 2pumps 1 vidcard and 1 for CPU:rofl:

I C... I think you need more fans...;)

Well with under 1.5volts i can do 3450mhz//2500mhz

But this is where im @ ATm

3520mhzCPU//2640mhzNB//1174mhz ram

CPU voltage 1.65 =1.55vid = 1.7v
NB voltage 1.60 =1.50vid = 1.65v
NBchipset/HT/voltages
2.8v
2.8v
Auto(Southbridge)
No ACC
VDD @ 2.8v

Note:
PCI-E set @ 100,,
when i set 101 for PCi-E it will lock up @ 224/225 and 234/235 FSB with any Dividers used...So it seems the extra 1mhz adds up when the HTT goes above 223..making things go nuts when sertain FSB/HTT numbers are used...

Results with 2gigs Ganged ,,Patriot Viper 9600's 1200mhz sticks 2x1gigs...
Using default timing is faster than running 5-5-5-12...Ive tried with 280+ which only gets me to about 1140mhz...well worth the $78bucks...My Dominators error on this Mobo above 1100mhz..Vipers9600's 100% stable @2.3volts

They dont work good on Intel 680I's but they work great with AMD rigs and 790fx/sb750...i talked to Patriot rep and verified if they work for this Mobo..He said the Green ones work the same as the Black ones do for AMD..They are the same modules with differnt color heasink ,,He said the Green ones are also tweaked for compatability for intel Mobos but will work on AMD fine...

I can comfirm that the Black 9600vipers work . They even boot if you by chance clear the CMOS which my Dominators would not!

So im using the 1066 divider with HTT 219 x 16xcpu (2400NB)for my overall ATM..

@ 3520mhz is my Max with 2600nb or 2000nb..i believe this is my true Limit for CPU.. its only a week 0820:D

@ 3.5ghz for 24/7 testing ATM...I think im pretty much maxed this chip where the 45's already ..

I had a DFI UT 790FX and it gave accurately the voltage to the CPU. When I set 1.30V it gave 1.30V at idle and at load as well. I had a Gigabyte DS4H (790GX) and it overvolted the CPU with the early F1 BIOS but they've fixed this issue in the version F2A. So I think it is not a normal behaviour at all.
