Thats a very impressive FSB for the DFI 975 mobo. Which bios were you using and was the it at 1:1 ratio?

1:1 ratio and last official BIOS (i don't know the number of it) that can be found on the DFI website. It is released maybe in August :shrug:

Is that Superpi 1M or CPU-z validation? :)

I don't know.:( Te board is still here, so if you have any idea for better overclockability then please share with me. I tried to disable the HyperPath settings and use BySPD timings for the memories and raise the FSB az MCH voltages, but none of them helped. Is there something I have forgotten?

About the FSB screens? No:) Just the pictures you saw in the pages.

How much time did you spend on the boards? Im not trying to be critical, just out of interest?
And was it easy to get the gigabyte 965 series to that fsb???

Very impressive Abit AB9 clocking, considering it runs on FSB1066 strap. What BIOS have you used ?

about one (sometimes two) day(s) per board. It means 13-14 hours of testing per day. The Gigabyte boards are easily overclockable. Just push the FSB and MCH voltages to +0.1V (FSB: +0.2V) and set the RAM timings by hand and go.

It ran because i set in the BIOS:) I used the beta 15 BIOS I found in XS.

Version 15 is final, there's a beta 19 tho' wich seems to help the overclocking greatly. Nevertheless, i got only around 425-435 with the beta 19 on most AB9's that have been trough my hands.

Then maybe i was lucky:)

Nice to see that the Asus P5B-deluxe does well.

what bios did you used on the ds3. and what rev.

tnx

Alot of so called high FSB are nothing more than benching purposes. Not many are really stable. The P5W64 is getting more and more tempting though.

which board was your personal favourite and why?

Alvin: You don't happen to to know about some good overclocking (>400 MHz) µATX mobo? Yeah I know, lots of people are looking for it...

It's a good question. If we don't watch the overclocking results, then my favourite board maybe the Asus P5W DH Deluxe (for the sake of the WiFi-AP Solo and the remote controller and the good-looking design). If I'd overclock I'd choose the Asus P5B Deluxe (and mabye I'll change my DS3 to a P5B Deluxe). I like the Award BIOS that Asus boards' use and the 8 pin power connector is nice too. Altough the integrated sound card very poor, so I have to buy a SB Audigy or something like that.

I only know the Asus P5LD2-VM DH mATX mobo, but it's limited about 300-320 MHz FSB.

You can get at least 400FSB out of the MSI 975x. I've seen 420 w/aftermarket HS/F. I don't think that guy knows that PCI-E Volt is vMCH in the MSI BIOS.

Nice OC report/test though.

Good test, but every MoBo is different, my Asus P5W DH is doing very easy 425MHz FSB without any mod, with mods 460MHz. And my P5B DeLuxe is worst than your, only 480Mhz FSB max....

I heard that the PCI-E Voltage maybe equal the MCH Voltage in the BIOS but I was afraid to try it.:rolleyes:

You're right, every board is different. I don't guarantee these clocks ony every mobo.
