I'd like to congratulate on the descendant too, Andressergio. It's nice to know there are happy people among us :)
Hoss331, could you precise which NB block do you use and how do you cool mosfets? I personally have Swiftech MCW30, curious if it would fit with motherboard holes? And is it really necessary to remove original heatsink? I read somewhere it doesn't get too hot even for very high FSB. I also read there is no temp measuring for NB, is that true?
congrats andressergio
i didnt know you played with anything other than computers :eek:
Thank you mate :up:Quote:

The MCW30 can be made to fit but the holes in the board are wider than the holes in the block so the screws will have to be angled, MCW30. Its not required to change the stock NB heatsink but it does help depending on how much mch voltage you use, alot of guys just remove the cover plate and put a fan on it though. I changed mine because it seemed to run pretty hot with the stock heatsink and with it so close to the ram that first stick would also be noticeably hotter than the second. The only way to check the NB temps on this board is with a program called MCHTemp.
Well here is where I'm at now 5.06 GHz on air nice low volt's too.
Congrats on that chip NoGury hella nice speed :up:Quote:

Thanks for information and for this picture. It helps a lot. But those angled screws doesn't look good/save to me. Situation with MCW30 looks the same as for Rampage Formula. To make it fit perfectly all one should do is to unscrew two screws holding the block arms and turn them aside a little (and of course those two screws we screw in to the block aback). And that's all. Although the arms are beeing attached now to the block with two screws only and they loose a little of their stiffness, force of pressure beeing applied is still adequate.
I would rather cool NB with liquid too, as this chip (as all silicons) always performs better while beeing cooler, and also OC means a lot of voltage to the NB as well as to the CPU.
To be honest I'm quite sold on UD3P. But unfortunately this motherboard isn't available in my country any more. That's a pity:/ Will need to search for it at our neighbours.
I love this chip and board
booted at 4840mhz using 2.0D multi then tuned to 5Ghz :D amazing
this is on W7x64 with my 2x2 Gskills PI will be easier on XP and just 2GB but i wanted to this with all

Cheers in this weeks will be getting the EP45T USB3P and Gskill ECO 1600 CL7 wish me luck :up:
Sergio
:eek2: very nice Sergio a Quad above 5ghz is a Quad above 5ghz lot of respect!
I miss my Ep45 ;)
andressergio,very nice overclock.that X3380 is awesome:up:
cant wait to see how you do with your DDR3 board:D
Jor3lBR,i miss my EP45 too:( and my Q9650.lots of fun with that combo:D
Thanks Jor i love this setup :up:Quote:

Awesome chip Sergio. :up:
It is amazing those UD3P boards are so durable. You have pushed that board to its limits for over 1 year now and it keeps going strong.
thanks friend :up:Quote:

Thanks mate :up: will get some tests soon i also be changing rad block etc im runing on a thin rad now and DTEK FUZION V1Quote:

Going to read thru this thread some more and see how this mobo is.
I already miss water cooling the NB, It seems hot so far.
congrats sergio
5Ghz is fast,,elite..
Thanks my friend just a test, not stable my aim is 4680 on x9 or 4750 on 9,5 for 24/7Quote:

Sick dude! I just got a UD3P and LOVE it. Got 8GB RAM and now I really want a e8700! lol
Testing a new q9550 on this board right now but it's a buddy's chip though I might have to get one as only $179 at Microcenter (like $190 with tax). VID is 1.265 is that high? Will post results later...
thanks mateQuote:

yes the Q9550 its high but you never know... :up:
With an EP45-UD3P and a Q9550 using the stock cooler I was able to get 3.82GHz Intel Burn Test 20 runs stable on all stock voltages. The temperatures were about 70-75C under Intel Burn Test so I put it back to the stock speed. I shall try for 4+ once I get my new case and water cooling.
My friend just got the EP43-UD3L and his Q9550 only goes up to 3.4Ghz (400x8.5) Intel Burn Test stable, but that's probably because the P43 blows for increasing FSB past 400mhz.
wow
sergio... 5ghz... any stibility with that oc at all... put it on prime see what happens
So I purchased this board to install an alternate OS, and it was working fine. Install went great, and I was dual booting with Win7 perfectly. 3 days after I get it, the lan ports both die completely, won't show up in windows, nothing. I RMA'd the board with Newegg, and 2 weeks later, I get the same issue. I called Gigabyte tech support, and we discovered the bios was corrupted, and both lan ports had mac addresses of gibberish, FFFFFFFFFFFF and ABABABABABAB.
That being said, I reflashed the bios and was back up and running until today, where the same damn thing happened! Now, I reflashed again, everything is up and running (again), but I can now replicate the problem... Every time I unplug the power cord from the system, the lan ports gets shot. Anyone have any insight as to WTF is going on here? Every other setting stays the same, so I'm assuming it's not the CMOS battery, it's just the mac addresses that change.
One other issue that's annoying me but isn't a huge priority... Windows experience index refuses to run on this system, since I installed the board. On the old RMA'd board, it would produce an error at the end of the testing, but on this board, it won't run at all. I click the button to start the test and absolutely nothing happens.
Anyone have any insight?
