Question for those in the know. Does the mobo come with a small fan to go on the nb or is that an aftermarket item? If you had a perfect size fan ..... cool :)

hahah, no, it doesnt come bundled, thats the fan that comes bundled with the blackops :D

BloodRage wont be out right after launch, just like the Rampage Extreme 2 it will come a bit later...

We haven't seen there being enough demand for this product in the dual-channel enthusiast market,
so we're probably just gonna wait to launch this product and make it a tri-channel kit, synchronized with the Nehalem release date.

well we will see... if the memory controllers really degrade with more than 1.65v after some time then there will be big demand for this memory, but if its fixed now and vdimm of up to 2v and more is ok, then nobody will care about low voltage memory in the desktop segment i think...

Also A-DATA will start to sell 3GB and 6GB kits with 1,65V-1,75V from factory;)

yes, you need less vdimm for the same speed

too expensive... well not THAT expensive, but they do cost quite a bit more than any other NIC and they dont really bring any advantage... :D

Too bad. Well, just hang on.. we will do our best to satisfy your needs (with screenshots) :rofl:

Here is another low clock, aircooled and untweaked 32M run in vista. You can try to guess the frequency. I can't tell it ;)

Attachment 86554

you just broke my dream :mad:
I wanna see sub 5min with nehalem :yepp:

hmm I think SF3D make it with 21x200 ;)

16M with good memory performence - 4:19.078

3.85GHz, Triple Channel 1600 7-7-7-20

PS. Wolfdale must have almost 5GHz with higher mem freq. to make that :ROTF:

well... look at it that way, people complain about boards for 400USD but they buy a set of 400USD videocards and a 1000USD cpu... i dont know why, but people expect boards to be cheap for some reason... me too actually, i figured mainboard makers are cashing in big time on high end boards, but actually they dont... there isnt a lot of margin with high end boards, i was quite surprised...

For 4.2Ghz is it to slow!

i think it is 3.8Ghz (19x200)...

i have seen a 4Ghz i7-920 (20x200) which does it in 10min 2secs. (without tweaks)

Haha...your guess was really high :D This is very powerful setup and fast board. I have to test XP next week and try the same settings. I think sub 10min is possible without too much effort.

I think you are confused... X58 Bloodrage is the name for the new quantum force motherboard. The X48 BlackOps has been on the market now for quite a while :)

eh? Being on the market doesn't...argh, never mind.

Sarcasm is the most intelligent class of humor, but you fail on this one :down:
