F8f is worse, much worse for me than F8X.......and yup....have to agree with you guys...now that I'm getting to know this board......will wait to exchange WHEN they finally are available in Europe...looks like the shops are getting some stock now.

EasyTune6 (Intel) B11.0309.1

Do we need to do a fresh install of windows when we swap to a B3 board?
I presume all the drivers are the same as it's the same chipset, so i guess i can just image my SSD before i send the mobo back for replacement?
My new I2600K

testing it boots x49 no internal pll

@ andressergio
that is sick, that means it should be good for 54x with pll enabled.
that is better than every chip I have tested, congrats on finding a good one my friend:up:
@ andressergio, wow that chips a bit easier on the volts my friend :up: have fun
Much better chip than the first one, andre. Very nice.
thanks guys :up::up::up: such a great an easy chio to OC goes x52 so easy that i still cant believe it
i started primming and its holding my mem at 1,65v 2133 7-10-7-27 seems to have also great IMC

cheers all

of courseee mate im primming now see i can lower more vcore also just needed to notch vdimm as bios F8F corrected overvolted mem so now as i have no middle value inbetween 1,66 and 1,68 i have to put this last and its going on perfect
here the proof...

That's awesome andre.
My chip primes at 5 ghz with 1.404v load, and I didnt test it for more than one loop (15 minutes) of blend because temps started approaching 85C on the next loop, so I ended the test right there. My chip is 10C hotter than yours (LOW vid, though. 1.360 VID at 5 ghz, and 1.21 vid at 3.4 ghz) :shocked: I guess it's one of those "low vid high leakage" chips?
Bit confused though. Right after I flashed to F3C beta+clearing cmos, it reported 1.240 vid, but after setting my bios settings up, and same 3.4 ghz, and disabling spread spectrum, it reported 1.21.
This chip runs as hot as the other chip does at higher voltages, which is 1.390v VID @ 5 ghz and that needs 1.484v load for prime...(seems like small fft runs cooler, on the lower vid chip though?)
BTW press control F1 in bios to unhide a few options (spread spectrum should be something you always disable).
When are you going to exchange your board for a B3? B3 with latest beta bios should be a lot more stable for you...
Oh...never knew you were on water. Thought it was air.
Here was just a very quick bench of my chip (I did last week after receiving it).

After the first loop (each loop batch is 15 minutes) self test finished, temps jumped to 85C for the next set, so I had to stop the test there.
I just did another quick prime blend today at 4.5 ghz and 1.236v load (1.265v bios with llc1) and it didn't bsod, so it didn't degrade (or break in) yet. 1.250v bios drops to 1.224v load and will BSOD so I bumped it up last week, and still good.
What voltage do you need for 4.5 ghz load?
And what about the B3 issue? Are you happy with your B2?
thats great mate :up:
im happy with my B2 for now its all runing like a charm tested my RAID0 connected to the ports that are to degrade and no changes at all
i never tried 4500 lol i just went to 4905 and 5005 lol
ahh i see you are on XP W7x64 SP1 take some volts more and also normal W7x64
what batch your chip ?
cheers mate :up:
It's a 3101A209, Costa Rica.
Not many of the 3 chips floating around...
B3 boards have much better cold booting, and can keep the bios setting after unplugs from PSU.
UD5 people have to upgrade to B3 (unless a B3 crossflash somehow works in B2) because LLC isn't working right on B2 Ud5's...LLC1 overshoots, LLC2 overshoots so far the comp reboots.
UD7's LLC seemed ok on B2's.
