It is not because your board died and killed your cpu that all are killers :DQuote:

and cold bug is all right for me too cause dice is all eye got lol
ya some bios shots please .. want the foxconn board ... but prices may force the buy
Good to see that BIOS revisions are increasing clocks...
@ Pt1t: Could you list the critical bios setting that got you to 4.5Gig? Also could you post links to the bios's you have? Thanks :)
Nice numbers!! Goes to show what a bit of tweaking of the BIOS can do for you.

good work
keep pushing
the x58 seems like it's working out with the newi7 cpu's
will it be the overclocking king like the TPower I45 ?
Very nice. I only see NCIX with that board.

$344 CAD = $280 USD. VERY affordable.
Typical Biostar orange/white--it looks good IMO. Backpanel layout is nice too--I like the dual-LAN like that, and the PS/2 for keyboard. Means my Model M would work. Great setup. Where'd you get the Noctura cooler? I'm looking for a top-performance top-down cooler. Right now it's between your Noctura and the Scythe Zipang.
1.5v CPU VTT and 1.35V QPI/PLL , that 's all :)Quote:

shame we cant run higher BCLK
i'd love to give all those 965 boys a hard time with a 920 chip :rofl:
