I just noticed though I ran this time with unganged where as, IIRC, I previously ran with ganged. Maybe Im an uber n00b and never caught that, but does ganged vs unganged has any effect on stability?
Is ganged and unganged like single and duel channel?????
i'm sorry i have to bother you with SOME EXTREMELY PLEASING RESULT :yepp: :yepp: :rehab:
The accuracy of the DMM in the range 0.4-4.0V is 1% + 2 Digits (0.002V) so the higher cpu-droop is more likely an error of measurement.Quote:

yeah finally i made it.. it also does at lower volts as in your screeny, but unpacking and installing ati drivers seemingly was not stable.. so this is truly no suicide run :D
i think it was the odt pin fine delay option (disabled now) and/or xp vs. vista 64bit..
now trying to go some 3d benching, but aquamark crashed last time.. i'll see..
Thank you for the tip tony but in do not use Vista here. :shrug:Quote:

Nice, good to see the chip still works. With no chef looking over my shoulder, it's hard to cope with myself here, so may things waiting for reinvestigation.;)Quote:

Also I still think the best Bios for that Processor is 11/22/07
U use DDR and not DDR2 ram over there? 2.4V :shocked: those GSkill's are normaly rated for 2.1V max.Quote:

Congrats to your advance in 6400 overclocking.
no its 2GB corsair 90nm promos ram now.. that'll be not possible with the gskill... :D
@be: yepp i think theres enough room left to spend some lonely saturdays with.. for now i'm pleased (wanted to see and redo that 3,63ghz you showed me :D ) and tired btw ;)
i'll also go outside some cool night and try out some more mhz there.. ;)
Wake up:cord: :cord: :nono: :slapass:Quote:

You can get one Here where I got mine from at MotherboardPro.com .....tell Mike I sent you please or Melissa either or!
Mikes user Name on the Forum = motherboardpro

crazy folks at dfi, the best boards live about half a year...
ok, when the sb700's are about to come now, i wouldnt mind :D
Since I have my board a couple of weeks...... I'll just upgrade my CPU, Video card and heatsink..... I won't have the money for awhile anyway. :fact:

My Phenom RMA should get to Newegg tomorrow morning. If I'm really lucky they might get a new one into overnight UPS by tomorrow night. (Luckily I paid overnight when I bought it. They use the same method for shipping the replacement. I should have it by friday at the latest.)
Watch out, they usually die above 2.3v - I've had 3 kits of them. There's no point in feeding ProMOS kits that much voltage since they have an onboard regulator which won't allow more than ~ 2.25v to the MEM ICs and the rest will just get converted to heat ;)Quote:
