is there a C1E option in our bios anywhere?
so here are some quick results.
1) 1m
cpu: 411*9
ram: 4*1gb @ 3-3-3-15 @ 1t

2) 8m
same settings i think

cpu-z shows revision A2....dunno if this is "new"
same settings 32m run later....i'll go to bed now :yepp:
ehm and thos 2XXXmhz-speeds are correct. speedstep (or whatever) was enabled
Has anyone tried this heatsink yet? im really interested in getting 1 but would like to know how much of a difference it makes. I have the silverstone TJ07 case so i have cool air blowing right across that area. This heatink looks perfect.Quote:

ya that thing won't fit with my ultra extreme ... nice looking piece of kit though .. .
i notice that theres two version of it a U and S version. Anyone know which will work for the DFI 680 i LT?
I called them and they told me that it would be ready in two weeks from last friday.Quote:

I'm hoping to run some tests of my friends G0 on my board next week but I'm interested in what others have found.
I Think it will depend on what Heatsink config you have.Quote:

Given the nature of the beast I would measure and make sure. The 8pin is in very close proximity which may eliminate the slanted unless combined with water cooling.

Yes, best performance came under the 521 bios. Unfortunately once things heat up the multiplier drops to 6 which really suxs. The 723 beta bios corrected this problem but all the previous overclock settings from any earlier bios don't work & I've not hit over 358FSB stable with it.Quote:

The latest beta is good for my e6850 with g0 but not for q6xxx g0 - when
will DFI release a new bios??

Aloha all,
I am running the following
DFI 680i LT NF-680i LT SLI
Core2 E6600
Swiftech TEC Cooler
I cant get it to go any higher then 3.1Ghz. My temps are 3.150.00Ghz is -6c running 350x9
I tired to move the cpu volts up to 1.6 and back down to 1.45 it makes no difference it wont post.
I leave the ram to unlinked so i am just OC'ing the CPU
I also tried to give the NB some more volts, but that doesn't seem to make a difference.
How can i get up to 4Ghz with this thing? Any help would be amazing.
Have anyone experienced any improvements with this new bios (7/23) compared to the 0521 bios using an E6850 or GO stepping?

my suggestion would be to post question here:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=139778
and start reading
Anyone here running a 6600? I cant get prime stable over 3.0Ghz for some reason.
I am running thermonelectice cooling, so temps are not a problem. If any of you can post your settings and let me know what volts your useing that would be great.
I have the following
Conroe E6600
The system wont post over 1400FSB with my DFI board., i have to reset the bios and start over. I am leaving the ram to un-linked.
I tried to set the vcore to 1.5 , 1.6 etc, nothing helps. I am running stock atm until someone fills i nthe blanks for me on why this thing wont post.
Shouldnt i be able to get 4.0Ghz+ easy with my cooler?
I had a old 6400 and I could get that to run at 3.8Ghz no the stock cooling, now i have this newer cpu and i cant get past 3.0....
Thanks you!
try something like this:Quote:

I will give that a shot right now.
I am at 3.2Ghz Stable so far, Its getting past this point is what i wanna try.. I will post my findings...
I though i tried this before but it didnt work. I tired to set the volts to 1.45 instead, not sure why more would make it not post.Quote:

What does that mean? Does it need more vcore? or something?
I am running windows vista.
Again, it posted and started to boot at 3.8, witch it never was able to do that in the past.
any idea's?
Just installed my new 6850 G0 . With 0521 it would post but crashed during windows boot . Had to lower frequency a bit just to boot in windows :)Quote:

I had big problems getting my 6850 stable betwin 3700 and 3900MHz , my mobo has huge "fsb holes" betwin 410 and 435MHz FSB :mad:
3800MHz - wont post at all .
3750/3850MHz - posts but very unstable .
3900MHz more stable
3950MHz - fsb holes gone but cpu wont prime too long , needs better cooling :rolleyes:
Lowered multi to x8 and finaly got it rock stable @ 3800MHz (8x475) . With x9 multi (9x422) wont post at all @ 3800MHz :shakes:
Well I'm stable at 3919mhz on air and I'm wondering if I should use the new bios or stay with the 0521. thanksQuote:

My instinct is that you need way more vCore than 1.425 for 3.8GHz. Also, at those kind of FSB, you will need to tweak GTL. You very well may have hit a wall at that FSB/MHz (I don't know anyone that's got a quad running at that speed on this board) but you won't know til you give it max juice and tweak GTL. Welcome to the fun that is OC'ing a DFI board! :p:Quote:

Thanks although I do not have a quad this info applies to me as well. I just thought that this new bios was to better support our new cpus then I should have to switch. But I will stay with the 0521, thanksQuote:
