Like I said 1-3 weeks will show new so called "fixed" rev,. boards, so it's your call. I'm going to keep mine till then and try to rma at that point.

There's only 4 boards out that I know of. The Asus, Gigabyte, Abit, and a ECS(never heard of them). Personally, I'd go with the giga. Once you get the memory figured out, it rocks. If you're going to be using eb, then you may wait a few days. I'll test it with it, but I have a feeling that I'll have it working well
another odd reading in sandra. When 2T command rate is disabled, (suposedly then 1T) I still see sandra reporting 2T command in mainbord info. Anyone else get this.
I've gotten that with all the boards that I've tested even a K8Npro and a 3400+. I think its a Sandra problem as setting for 1t improves bandwidth and other scores
That is what I figured.
What's wrong with YOU?? Nobody has ever implied such a thing, unless you're running the cooled system's clocks at the same frequencies as the air cooled, in which case you will get the same results, but obviously not the same temps. What a waste of time responding to you. End of Discussion.Quote:

exactly! I am disappointed to see the lackluster numbers these "uber" fx53s are putting out. Opps 36k score is very good, but I was expecting something a bit higher..Quote:

btw, mdzcpa, your responses & insults to storm are rather funny. Gotta love that life in the slow lane remark:lol:
Oh heck, holiday weekends are always slow on the forums so I thought we could use a little entertainment in the thread.
You have to admit, I did make the thread much more colorful.
:banana: :banana: :banana:
Do you have a reading compreshension issue? I've already replied that I don't waste my time with plebian air cooling anymore. What part of that do you not get?Quote:

I suppose I should get back on topic (that would be a novel idea huh?)
Anyway, here's where I think this system will run day to day. Anything more and random instabilities start creeping in.
I still prefer lower HTT, no locks, and super tight timings. This is at 2.0-2-2-5 1T with system tray full of $hit. Not bad considering no extreme cooling like LN2, dry ice, cascade,...just a plain jane Mach II:

It'll do.
Though I know Storm can do way better by just licking his finger on holding it on the IHS of the monster 940 FX:)
I dont think he realizes how many teething issues the boards and chips had in the first place, either... he wants his goodies here and now.
Spoiled rotten :(
Very nice chip you have there. I think storm would clock in at about 33s, but lets see if he will. Also has any one posted a score with a stock fx and x800xtQuote:

A flame-fest between AMD and iNTeL I can see, heck even between say a model, AXP vs. A64...
but sockets !?
*wow*
Sometimes you just gotta create your own excitement, you know:)Quote:

Yes, mine behaves similarly. But, try to run the memory async with 2T disabled. On mine with 250 HTT and 166 memory setting, Sandra reported 1T command.go figure :confused:Quote:

Well if there is one thing mdzcpa knows it's the slow lane!;)Quote:

OPP's score is with an old S940 rig, not a S939. He has a couple of S939 boards but they are such pieces of $hit that he doesn't waste his time. OPP quickly figured out that they had issues beyond his ability to fix.
mdzcpa
The only thing colorful about you is how OPP bloodied you with an old socket 940 rig.:ROTF: That and your lame attempts at trying to appear as if you know things that you do not.
32k on your rig with a Prommie on the CPU and an 80watt pelt/water block on an X800 Pro is an achievement roughly equivalent to getting 29k on my machine with air. If I had your cooling on my rig I'd say 34k would be a relatively easy feat.
Iridium192_217 was being kind when he called the performance of the FX-53 lackluster.:lol:
Just a sucker for punishment arent you?
In 2k1 I am #28 in the world regardless of CPU, GPU, cooling, or anything else. I am #2 on air and #1 without vmods on air.Quote:

well im starting to make some progress. 250x10 3-2-2-8 and a very mild overclock to 533/565. I still cant get a good car low tho it seems unless im just testing. ive matched this runs car low at 233x10 and my xt at stock. very frustrating and ive still not found a good order for this s939 set up yet either.
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7952784
seems the extra cache really makes a big diffrence in drag low also. i get walked in drag low by 3400+/x800pro's with my 3500+/x800xtpe at stock.
And i finially found out my problem. Im 99% sure it was ati tools fault that i was unable to overclock. After i initially thought i had fixed it i could run no higher than 233x10 and 520/560. at 200x11 i could run higher than 520/560. I put in my 8 gig quantum bench drive and just put on rivatuner and everythings working again so im under the impression that atitool screwed up something in my registry or something. Ive still not uninstalled ati tool off my main drive yet to test yet tho, but uninstalling and reinstalling atitool wouldnt allow me to operate properly so it fubared something. maby uninstalling atitool all together and use'n rivatuner will fix it. i'll keep ya posted.
Damn storm, you're a dumbass.

As for my biography since I am apparently interesting: I live on the canadian side of Del Bonita Alberta/Montana (boarder town on northern tip of Montana, southern tip of Alberta) and am currently a farmer... I am a computer enthusiast and will do what I deem necessary to keep myself happy in reguards to what I expect from my system(s).. be that modifications, upgrades, or otherwise.
However, I do have one pet peeve.. and that is misinformation. You could interchange it with ignorance, but to me they come out close enough to the same most of the time to be one in the same.
Is that sufficiently far enough off topic for you so that you can avoid explaining to us how 1mhz becomes 2mhz?
flamefest over, gosh you guys........... lol
was good while it lasted, look at the size of this thread, whooooooo.... biggest in a looooong time.
