air E66 ES meet GA-965P-DS3 "499 FSB"

Is there setfsb or similar for this chipset/board? How about memset?

Gigabyte just needs a new bios to run safely @ 3500mhz+

DS3
Cons
its hard to boot @ 390 x 9(air cooled P5WDH does 425 x 9)
no 4/3 dividers

Pros
the voltage droop is minimum
good to oc with low multiplier
cheap

VERY NICE WORK!...you made my decision so much easier with your great work and details!

"CHEAP"....is my game!:D

memory list for D3:

http://www.giga-byte.com/FileList/Me...a-965p-ds3.pdf

the DS3 does NOT have issues with 390 and above

you comment and your comment of the P5W booting at 425 are all RARE.

rare occassions of people not being able to boot at 390+
me i can go from default to 400mhz FSB and she boots right up.
the asus is not the same 400 was the max and remains the max that most people get. but the asus is harder to reach 400 with you have to do it in small increments. not huge leaps like the DS3

i have had both boards. so.. take my word for what you will.

the P5W DH isnt horrible but it suffers the EXACT same fate of alll other conroe boards 400mhz FSB is the limit for a 6600. a 6700 is lower and a 6800 is lower.

think of it this way.
the lower the cpu multi the higher the fsb.
but the lower the multi the less ghz your going to get.

the DS3 is the ONLY board to high 490+ UNMODDED.
the P5W DH can get close but you have to heavily mod the board to do it.

its atoss of the coin but if your not overclocking or only doing light overclocking.... the P5W DH does have more toys and bells and whistles and a much better SATA controller.
so... take that as you will.

Does the Dq6 use the same sata controller as the DS3? What controller does tha asus use compared to the D3 exactly?

the only thing i would quibble about in your post is the E6600 is a 9X by default...the D3 is able to lower the multiplier; so, going at 8X and raising the fsb to 450 would give the user 3600 mhz (1200 mhz above default speed)...and...if we can go to 490 like you say then an E6600 could go as high as 3920 mhz...in my mind that is "very" good.

Where might one purchase this Team Xtreem RAM, or something that performs equally well? I heard G.Skill being talked about alot.

Just trying to keep myself informed. ;)

i recommend you do a search for it.:confused:
