I don't want to troll and spam. I still think this will be an excellent board. I hope I can get the problem solved.Quote:

What was the limiting factor. Your QPI is low. Your voltage is low. Presumably you have extremely good cooling system. Was the limit temperature based?Quote:

I feel so sad when I see these comments. (nothing personal :up: )Quote:

These doesn't scale with voltage and most cpu's can't handle more than 1.55V. Cooling doesn't help much, like we have seen.. some CPU's have cold bug at -50 etc.
Do I need to say more :D
So, this 32M run is worlds 20-30th fastest and this CPU is quite good even it doesn't look to be anything special. Those chips, which can reach really high frequencys are rarely retail CPU's. The key is to find leaky processor which can handle voltage or cooling well.
If I would have some way to find a golden 965, I could show some heavier results. It's all about connections and a bit of luck these days. My connections can't pick CPU's from factory or give me 20 samples to test. That's the truth.
hey petri thats a pretty nice m32 score you have there.. im curious what sort of ram voltage do you have to use to get past 1000mhz on those sticks ?? im guessing over 2.0v?
Yep Mikko! 2.05V. Like I said, these are not designed for this platform, but I don't have any overclocking tri-channel kit yet. A-Data should send me one soon.
Hey mate,
I just saw you're using a ToughPower 1.2kW... did you have similar problems like Anandtech experienced during their review? (I guess no, but asking is free :D)
Thanks,
Stefan.
I have a Swiftech GTX and the Bloodrage and I had to order the GTZ 1366 adapter and backplate to make it fit. The reason is not the adapter but the backplate itself. You need the one with the hole in the middle to fit the socket backplate through. Check out this post by Saaya for more info:Quote:

I have had my Bloodrage now since the 27th of December. I am running a Corsair HX1000 and have not experienced any of the problems discussed by Anandtech.Quote:

could you please post a picture of the board, spdif and package or pm it to me?
the board should still work fine, since you dont plan to use it anyways ask newegg to inform you when they have the board in stock again so they can swap it. its obviously a shipping problem and i dont think youd have any problems getting the board replaced, and until then just use the board, there shouldnt be anything else wrong with it, but then again, if they kicked it around hard enough to break off the spdif then there might be something else wrong with it :eek:
here here saaya da man :clap:
ya gotta dig a manufacture that supports thier product :up:
thanks man :) :toast:
fyi, G15 isnt all that bad :D

16x memory multiplier works fine now, so if you got some good mem you can run ddr3 2133 with stock Bclock now :)
What voltages are required for that?
My Co-axial SP/DIF connector was a bit bent, but not broken.Quote:

Just picked up my ups package yesterday.
box in good shape, could hear something moving around a LOT inside, it was the blood rage box, also in good shape, but too little packing material for my liking, havent opened the blood rage box itself yet, gonna make some coffee
first.

I got mine last Monday. It worked right out of the box with no fuss! :) I have it on water now, but will post pics when I get home from work.
opened up box, everything looks good, motherboard looks even better
in person.
Still gonna be a while for me to set up, still deciding what to do about memory
and need to find a backplate for waterblock, I have a fuzion original. but not sure if i want to use it, or if it will be good enough..
and I think i wanna keep this 790I system as is, so i need a case, thinking of going TECH station on the I7 build...
Spoiler: what memory did you go with? and 920, 940, 965?

Spammed F5 for a good 3 hours straight. Finally got it ;p.
It came with no damage and the board so far works perfect. I had trouble with RAID 0 until I realized my drives had somehow failed but after that was taken care of I'm pleased to announce everything is in working order! (Or at least appears to be.)
I don't trust shipping companies and always hold my breath when I get a product delivered but this one seemed in prime condition.
(Had a keyboard come in once that was beat so hard it looked like a murder weapon.)
I'd highly recommend waiting. I love EVGA and Asus but quite honestly not over Quantum Force.
If you really want one you need to commit to checking Newegg every 10 minutes or so. Just start a long play list or movie and F5 after every song. Worked for me :)
Was able to hit 1924 with BCLCK @ 190 CAS 9 w/v1.70 (Gskill BSPI). Going to try over 2k tonight.:up:Quote:

Hows that Fuzion look-alike NB block? If it's sealed and functioning properly I might connect it to the watercooling setup. :)
What type of material is it made out of? :)
What do you think about the board so far? Looking forward for the BIOS screens and some overclocking/benchmark resutls. =)
If you had read this thread or used the forum search, you'd know what the block is made of...
We already discussed that several times. It's copper with a brass top and fixed 1/2" barbs.
Yeah..and if you read the whole thread you can see quite a lot of benchmark results :shrug: What kind of benchmarks you guys want to see, if these are not good for you?
BIOS screens will come soon. I have so much to do and some trips coming, that I haven't been able to pload them yet :(
3.8ghz (i7-p20)
Vclock:1.3
Cooler Master V8
80-90c Load (Prime95.)
Is this to much? I idle at 39c and on stock settings 39c idle with a 50c load.
