The EVGA doesnt have a 1x pcie slot at the top. All slots are covered by cards in tri sli, this is why I didnt buy the EVGA board.

WOW!! What NB cooler is that? Or is it a modded cpu heatsink?Quote:

Very cheap Northbridgecooler :D
Damn, I guess it's only available in danmaork or Germany.....I am going to test the Thermalright hr05/sli ifx then this week...
I love this board, absolutely amazing. :)
Hey guys,
My first post, build, oc everything. :)
I just finished assembling a with Rampage II extreme, I7 920, 6GB of Corsair Dominator 1600 sticks. I can OC it to easily to get 191x20 (191x21 with Turbo) at 1.4125V for Vcore and it posts, boots fine and runs fine. I can even run OCCT fine unless, I check the 'Hyperthreading as dualcore' option (it is not checked by default) and then the tests usually fail. So I am not sure if option is required for a good measure of stable system or am I expecting too much? I should mention that it even failed once at stock speed with this option when I did a 1hour run, but worked after that it worked fine (it worked fine even with 180bclk after that). So I am now all confused about what is a good measure of what is considered 'stable'?
TIA
Does the HR-05 SLI/IFX fit ok on this board?Quote:

You need to raise vCore, HT taxes the CPU much more so you need a bit more voltage. Hyper threading enables 2 threads out of each core & it's one of the main features of Core i7 CPU's, in real life very few apps take advantage of it, but having it enabled is always good & boosts performance.Quote:

Hi i just got a rampage 2 and will be installing shortly. What is the current best bios to use? Also can someone share a good template for a 4ghz oc. Im air cooling with thermalright ultra 120. I have the corsair dominator kit 3x2gb 1600mhz 8-8-8-24.
Oneself uses 0804 BIOSQuote:

4GHz is good at around 1.42V
Here is a pic, I had to bend it a bit so it wouldnt hit the liquid cooling tube. You probably won't have to though, Scaramonga.....;)Quote:

What is the best settings for high BCLK? How high BCLK can this board do on normal cooling?
Many thanks Bringer :):) was waiting to see your pics, I will grab one for myself then ;)Quote:

Oh......and I take it board requires removing for fitting?
Is that as high as you can go on 1.55 vcore?Quote:

Try running everything stock and raising the multi to get around 4.4- 4.5! It doesnt seem rasing BCLCK gives you that much more performance comparing to higher CPU Clocks
Even 1.4V work if they do not do PrimeQuote:

The temps at full load@4.2ghz is between 40c-43c dependind on the temp in my room!! yes it is smaller, but that nb copper part is much larger than the actual x58 NB. You won't have to bend it like I did, I just had to make it fit under the watertube. If I had more tubing slack I would not have needed to do that....;)Quote:

Does anybody know what this bios fixes??
Awesome buddy :) Many thx for that :) Have ordered one, hope it gets here for Xmas lol!.Quote:

:up:
Oh, and wouldn't the Non-SLI version (HR-05/IFX) have cleared your tubes? or was it just too tight?
I am not sure if the non-sli one would have cleared the tubes as I don't have one.....I had this hr05Sli/ifx left over from cooling a SB on my 790i Ultra I had before!
