Ive ordered a p35 dq6 + e2160, finally will be able to use my DDR2 ram which I bought slightly too early. I hope this clocks aswell as the p5k deluxe. It was £10 cheaper, and I wasnt sure if the p5k deluxe had an onboard header for a parallel port pci plate.
Should I do a fsb mod on my cpu straight away?
My max stable FSB is 520MHz ...

Are the realtek ones newer? Also what link do u follow? U just get the "HD audio driver" and the lan driver? I looked at the readme and the 889 codec was not mentioned, similarly I couldnt match the lan chip to the drivers.
All I did was just cut the power if I seen it was at the same speed I had before the overclock. Turned it back on after 5 seconds and reported the right speed I intended for. ODD:shrug:Quote:

I've installed and tested, Realtek driver 1.67 will show the 889A codec in the information panel.

Look at the information on the Realtek wesbite, it states what LAN chips the driver supports: RTL8111B/RTL8168B/RTL8111/RTL8168/RTL8111C
You have an RTL8111B.
New Performance BIOS next week.... or I just jinxed it by a month. ;) It should be based on the P35T code we got today, memory performance is up, Quad Core OC to 485, and a few other improvements. The P35T finally broke DDR3-2000 today, but it was single channel.... Dual Channel DDR3 is around 1900 stable on this board now...
im really digging this new chipset and mobo. everything is looking great.
Yes, it is fully Orthos stable ...Quote:

And WDM_R167.exe for the audio
Do I need to download the p35 chipset driver from intel or with the Gigabyte driver do?
I chose cheapest shipping and my e2160 will be here on the 30th apparently.
I hope your right m8, Its no fun booting at 5-7-7-24 @ 2:3 or 5-6-6-21 @ 4:5 and have no control over it...:shakes:Quote:

After changing only the mobo, will the O.S. starts again (maybe in safe mode) or I have to do a clean operating system install?
Thanks,
No, a clean O/S install cause' of different chipset drivers is best. But it should start, though you will get messages about reactivating XP etc..Quote:

When changing mobo always do a fresh install.
Got this for the Intel storage matrix driver:Quote:

I dont think I need Jmicron drivers cause I will probably turn it off due to problems it caused on previous boards.
The Intel drivers you linked are old, here's the most recent:
http://downloadmirror.intel.com/1132....0.1017_PV.EXE
And the latest chipset:
http://downloadmirror.intel.com/1088....0.1013_PV.EXE
The initial download pages on Intel don't always show the latest drivers, you have to dig deeper.
The more I see of this board the more I want one.
Ive got the xp-120 and bought the lga775 retention bracket (just so I could buy an thermalright ultra extreme at a later date if I wanted), the supplied screws are only about 10mm long I would need 15-20mm to compensate for leaving the crazy cool system as it is. I dont have a cpu yet so, its not like its stopping me putting it together yet.Quote:

doing 520MHz FSB within 10 minutes of installing windows. I am sure it will go higher but my CPU will not to more than 3100MHz on stock cooling. And my Noctua NH-U12 will not fit, and too lazy to install watercooling right now :).
Get busy and put it under water. Let's see what it can do.Quote:

But one other thing, this board is handling 4X1gb sticks of ram so much better than either of the P5B-Ds i used before. Running Orthos blend @ 500MHz FSB 1:1 with no subtiming tweaking or anything. I couldn't even get them stable on my P5B-Ds.
Richard,
Does the Ninja Rev.B overhang the first RAM slot? I wanted to get the Thermalright 120 Extreme, but the mounting bracket has a faulty design, so I am thinking of getting the Ninja Rev.B and a DS3P board which should have the same layout as the DQ6. The 4G RAM will have fins like the Corsair Dominator series.
Thinking of mounting it like this:

it is also good to hear that this board is clocking/handling 4x1 gig sticks well: :woot:
one of these + a penryn + a g92 please. :slobber:
