Not sure for the moment but at least 30' OCCT. So it seems to be :)
All benchs @3900@1.58 but OCCT impossible cause PWM temp raise above 130° :(
Need a mobo with RockSolid VRM!
I'd love a new ABIT, but IX38-QuadGT will have same Numeric VRM :(

yay nice going there aster :up: You should remove the mosfet cooler and remove that tim strip as well. Apply some thermal grease and put it back. Also let a fan blow on your chipset (cause if the chipset gets very hot, the heat goes to the pwm's because of the heatpipe). I did a little mod today:

This is a 50mm fan :)
Sorry for low-quality pics (blame nokia, not me :p)
Greets,

Interesting!
As you can see in previous page, I removed stock heatsink.
The Northbridge is watercooled with a MCW30
PWMs are aircooled with a HR-09 and a 60fan (stock AMD, same as you ;) ), but thermal tape seems to suck!
I should replace it for Artic Ceramic but i have to remove all components and the mobo so... :dammit:
Anyway, this mobo is great Overclocker :up:
It sure is :) Did 515 FSB out of the box on mine. My mems were holding me back. Otherwise I could even push it further :pQuote:

Yeah plz :p Then I know what to buy for this board. A Q6600 or a E6850 :)Quote:

Board work perfect with new bios using 1333fsb chips! Currently got my E6850 up and running fine!
Which bios version?Quote:

521 FSB on P5B-Deluxe (965 Chipset) ! That's INSANE :/ hope i can get 450 fsb on my Q6600 under vapo!
Am using bios version 14! Have just got 1 problem when i lower the multi from 9 to say 8 or 7 board doesnt boot up! Currently testing E6850 on board now at 3.3 on 1.31.25V
Sweet :) Now I have to find a way to cool down the PWM elegantly. Haven't found anyone that has done it just yet.Quote:

My screws are too short (I'm going to get longer one this afternoon), but here is a proof that a 50mm fan fits perfectly:

Hehe you are awesome. Now I have some stuff to try. Sadly though I think I run into clearance issues with the Tuniq installed to do the PWM mod.Quote:

These are the perfect screw sizes :p
For anyone who's wondering what it looks like, here some pictures of the southbridge :D

I used bios version 13 and had now problems lowering the multiplier on my E6600:Quote:

But ofcourse you need the bios 14 because of 1333FSB support :rolleyes:
(100th post:toast:)
Do you run into clearance issue with your graphics card on the South Bridge? But then again you have a 7900GS which isn't that long.
Nope I don't. Btw I don't have my 7900GS anymore :) I have a 2900XT and a 8600GTS :p they both fit :)Quote:

BIOS release V15 for AB9 QuadGT
Release information:
1. The ICH8R AHCI function now works as intended.
2. BIOS compiled date: 07/25/2007
putting a fan on the PWM's seems to keep the nb much cooler as well. Here it is

Need more quadcore results on this boaaaaard! :shrug: :confused: :(
there is bios 15 allready ,
I've been running my Q6600 on this board for the past week or so at 3.75ghz (417x9). I just picked up a Gigabyte P35 DS3P Friday from NewEgg, so I'll pop that in either tomorrow or Wednesday to see if it's any better at clocking the Q6600.
One tip while running a quadcore: Use an aftermarket NB heatsink. The PWM gets too hot if you keep the stock sink attached to the NB. I have my NB watercooled and the stock heatsink bent like this
What MCH Voltage? After putting a fan on it seems to stay relatively cool and my PWM's never go over 45C.Quote:
