We'll all move to SSD's when the price comes down more....two of those in RAID 0 is astonishing!

I've had my eye on them, but they're gonna need to improve the write times before I commit to them (and the price obviously :D).
Mtron baby..Mtron!

Wow. Any occasions when you come close to using 8GB?Quote:

It's the 5th post down, the one with all the videos. Take a gander at the TF2 video he posted, that is EXACTLY what happens with me too... Coincidence that we're both using HD's on an x38 chipset? I know of one other person who has this exact same issue who is also using 2900's on a gigabyte x38-dq6. In some ways, this is both good, and bad news. Good that I'm not alone, bad that it seems unfixable.
Where to from here? Anyone think this is something Gigabyte could fix? It would seem to be limited to X38 chipsets, so there's bound to be something they can do... One can dream, right?
After playing around with some of the beta BIOS's, I seriously think that time is being wasted on them. With the F5x, F6b, and F7's, I was never able to get above 435 FSB. With F3, I was able to break 500 FSB without a sweat. RAM is running perfectly at 1000 MHz - 5-5-5-15 timings.
If you are running a dual-core, why use anything else?

Speaking for myself, I have some big image files and compressed files that are like over 6-8GB, and let me tell you unzipping an 8GB file goes real quick on my system until I run out of ram and then it takes like 30 minutes to finish it off at a slow crawl, so yeah 8GB of system memory would do it in about 2 minutes or something.Quote:

thanks ~aoe~
yeah the latencies are so small..wow. ....and hey because your disks only need to be so big for your programs/OS you can just back up to a standard sata drive :)
raid 0 seems even more like a great idea i may save up my pennies. :)
i would like to store important audio /video and program files for editing (so it runs quicker) ..so if i did this i would need to back up after each session so any changes are stored to another backup drive. I'll have to find a quick way to do that ..some type of program that knows what ive done and only saves the changes to a drive rather than the whole drive. i think a mirror or something like that?
peace:)
I can't go more than 460 with Q9300 Yorkfield !
I hope the new bios fix that !
Wait and see
PS : Great clocking @ 8 x 500
Sobek do you have ATI Catalyst™ 7.12 drivers ?
RIPS_FR Do you have Q9300 ???
ble, i dont like it how X38T owner get shafted biosupdate wise. :down:
i've take another x38t dq36 because the first after bios flash doesnt work..so now ive the same problem..if i try to install windows xp on a raid0 the installation miss a lot of files...if i try to install in only one raptor its the same..i dont understand and i dont know what to do...
Yeah, this occurs on pretty much any driver release (going back too far clears it up, naturally, because earlier drivers sometimes don't contain game profiles and it just runs single card mode anyway).Quote:

SOBEK: Have U tried without X-FI ? or without overclock ? I got some problems if the voltages of cpu or memory are too low, when I oveclock. Whay frequecy is your memory at ?
Try 400FSB with memory at 800.
Tried it without the X-Fi just the other night (posted that a page ago I think). Tried running with no X-Fi and no overclock (stock fsb / multi, stock voltages, stock everything) and it made no difference, tried raising my overclock to 400x9 (800 memory), that made no difference either. Also tried forcing my PCI-e frequency to 100mhz, 105, 110, and 112, none had any effect.Quote:

X48 ??? :rolleyes:

looks like you got a x48 to me ,badged as a x38 well done.:up:
Nope - I suspect it's a bug in the program. I get the same :rofl:
jup bug in cpuz.
I get X48 in that CPU-Z version too, but not in the previous build.
hello
is anyone on here using an x38-dq6 , XP pro 32bit with.... 4 x 1gigs of ram?
im using 2x 1 gig at present and i need a little more(just under 3gig). i read xp cant see the full 4gigs but some systems can use up too 3 gig of the 4 installed ,but , on some systems it ruins performance.
i notice many people list in their sig's that they use 4 gigs but, not which OS they be on?
so im trying to find out if it slows down an x38-dq6 to use 4 x 1 gig on xp 32bit?
thanks :)
most mobos should give no problem with 4gb and 32bit os. just try it.
anyway right now im going throught testing every strap/multi for its max fsb on my board.
on the 2.66D i can achive 470Mhz testing the others some time later. I think tomorrow ill test the 2.0x (A/B/C/D) multi/straps and see how far i can go on each.
