FSB and MCH set to default.
Vcore set to 1.48
OCZ reaper 8500 @ 2.30v
All subtimings set to auto execpt 30 on that big one.
DLL option 1 (havnt seen it make a difference)

Did you disable No-Execuate Memory Protect/C1E Enhanced Halt/Thermal Monitor 2/EIST Function/Virtualisation Technology?

Those are at default.
Im quite newbie at oc'ing so i havnt even considered those options.

also prevents caps from being bent over.

but it is cool for sure.

It's not new at all, graphics cards have had it for a while. My X800pro AGP had them

My estimated delivery date for my P35-DQ6 is May 22nd :( . I guess that is what you get for paying only $166CAD (~$150USD) brand new for it :).

Very nice man! This board looks promising. I am getting the GA-P35-DS3P but expecting similar results.

Also, running 1:1 is not faster. I run mem at 2.5x and get better benchresults than at 2x. It can improve stability though from what I understand.

Could you try to test the maximum fsb?

I reached 500x7 3.5ghz. If I try higher then it just keeps rebooting. I am satisfied right now.

What voltage did that require to NB?

Less latency. Ideal situation for gaming.

Fully agreed. They have been around for ages. Its just that we don't usually see it being used on mobos.

These skirts are necessary because the SMD caps are installed via machine and not by hand. The caps have to be oriented in the correct way or the placement will be wrong (it could be a disaster if the ploarity is reversed). Those plastic skirts are for that purpose. Notice that 2 side of the skirt is pointed with the other 2 are are not. This ensures that all the caps are in the correct orientation when they are fed into the machine and installed.

small update, been testing lots of ram and water cooling.

Overall, the heatsinks actually work well in water cooling environment (no airflow at all).

More to come!

My P35-DQ6 and P35-DS4 are the same boards and max FSB is 520MHz, Orthos stable ...

quetion to irev210 and you other guys--- i see you have both the p35's and the 680i... which do you like better? Simple as that.. I know the p38 will be out in a few months but i cant wait.. I need a new board but the 680i's worry me with the reports of eating ram...

p5k?
dq6?
680i?

I have read a few reports that say the p35 isnt really worth getting.. Just a refined 965. But when i read these posts here-- they seem far from just a refresh on the 965... Right now im leaning twoards the dq6-- and i hear there is a new bios coming out on thurs.. might be interesting

P35 i think is better than 680i...

I have first problem with this mobo ... if i am at 500MHz FSB, somethimes my PCI graphic card shut down for a while (monitor is shut down too) ... at lower FSB is everything perfect ...

i still believe that the p5kdeluxe has proven to do better. But this board is also looking pretty impresive.

Asus and Gigabyte both offer competitive boards that have a lot of features. Gigabyte offers a better cooling solution and higher quality components. If you have a case with little to no airflow, I would recommend the DQ6.

The Asus will O/C a little better in both FSB and RAM, and costs less.

As for 680i Vs. P35, this is an easy answer. If you plan to go SLI, then you are forced into a 680i chipset. If no SLI, then get a P35 or 965 without question.

965/P35 are a lot easier to overclock, and much easier to keep stable, and much easier to reach higher overclock. 680i takes some time to tune, and I personally hate it.
