Icon check my sig, I use an Apogee GT block. The leftmost corner rubs against the VRM 'sink fins, but it still fits. It also works fine with the CrazyCool backplate left on.
If you meant watercooling the NB... the DQ6 NB cooler is still downright cool to the touch in most places, even the VRM fins are cool due to the case fans right next to them (P180). I see zero reason to use a WC block on the NB! All "heatpipes" have a liquid in them, they would not function without it.
I guess not, mine is on the top left. I would not think it would matter the inlet is in the center so....Quote:

Bios F5c for the P35-DS3 now has a working Memory Performance Enhance too.
did they take out the trd setting or do you have it set on auto?Quote:

TRD is a RAM sub-timing. Before flashing to F5L I tested the F4 BIOS and changing the TRD setting did nothing, except change the TRD RAM timing. :shrug: I have left mine on AUTO.Quote:

Option 2 does seem to start making a difference for RAM speeds over 1GHz.
interesting on p35ds3r trd changes the "prefomance level"
i hope they dont change it
It changed it on my DQ6 also, I have not tried it with the F5L bios thoughQuote:

Which mother board is better ?
GIGABYTE - P35-DS3R or P35-DS3P? some people told me to go with DSEP because DS3R has memory issue?
f4g beta bios for p35c ds3r owners is a must. this bios rocks. finally I am able to run my memories at 1200 mhz 5-5-5-18 with only +0.3 voltage. performance enhance option really works with this bios. when ı set it to extreme, the performance level is 8. and my system doesn't freeze anymore while shutting down.all my problem are gone finally....
Even if running a RAID?Quote:

I will play around with the TRD setting again, maybe it was the specific overclock settings I was using at the time or something. (I never used any beta BIOS's before F5L however). The memory performance enhance seems to do a good enough job adjusting the strap on it's own though. :)
I'm curious as to whether there are any aftermarket NB HS that fit the P35C-DS3R?
Just installed this one.Thermaltake Extreme Spirt II.Appears to be no onboard sensor to read temp(NB):shrug: .Quote:

e6850 oc'ed to 3.6 (cant seem to get it stable higher then that)
p35 ds3r with voltage set to 1.37+
memory is set to 4-4-4-12 with mem spd set to 2.0
this is my 1st intel build and heard this mb is good for oc'ing but im out of ideas
btw im on watercooling so temps is no problem,
only possible solution seems to increase the mch voltage and fsb voltage....
I have made a SP1 just for you K404. I ran it just seconds ago on my Vista machine. Please note that this is my setup for game/work/surf so EVERYTHING is running in the background, and that is a lot :eek:Quote:

I'm using a homemade block for the CPU and it is no problem what so ever.Quote:

I had the EXACT same thoughts before buying this MB. Now that I have used it for a few weeks or so I am more then pleased with the heatpipe solution.Quote:

Same here for 1M. This was before memset beta with PL setting though. Ill try to rerun it.Quote:

32M is a bit faster for me (with PL now) on P35C however not 100% sure the exact same tweaks were used and me time on Commando is slooooow to start with :D

for the fsb voltage is it better to put it as 1.4 or 1.3 + .1 overvoltage?Quote:

what did i do wrong?!
Try putting all settings back to normal.Then run repair.Most likely going to have to reformat and re-install.Could be a hardware issue,but most likely a user error in bios set up:D .Most of us have been there:rofl: .
ive tried everything... now im reinstalling windows :mad: im still curious what went wrong though :confused:Quote:
