time to see battle ag.
Asus/Gigabyte RD must be quite busy atm :D
:eek:
Bravo DFI, bravo Oskar/Jarry!:up:
Victor, Have you got price info about DFI? When available in market? :confused:
Thanks you sharing that.
That's some nice FSB right there :devil:
I also wish I knew when it's gonna be available and for how much (probably too expensive for me anyways). :rolleyes:
Nice work guys :clap:
any mods or is that completely stock ???
Awesome :o
Its always nice too see a new WR! :)
I know Oskar has been testing with a cascade, so this may be a screenie with the cpu heavily chilled.
Chilling CPU's does help with fsb overclocking, so you may see a little less than this on air cooling
Nice. But when will be this mobo available? 2009? Dfi's a bit behind the pace...
awsome :O :O :O go DFI
666FSB :shocked:
DFI seems to be increasing the pace of development! which is good news!
Very impressive. But while lab results are nice to see we need to wait and base our expectations on real world results. Retail boards with a shipping bios may produce different results, for better or worse.
Victor it is important you report all the facts regards the speeds we see, some end users will take this as being air cooled and complain quite heavily to DFI when their boards do no where near as good.
If you actively helped with DFI support as i do you would see making all the facts public as important as i do.
While hype marketing does work it also causes a ton of issues down the road, we all need to be a little more level headed when it comes to hardware used and how the system was run.
Oskar has promised me a production board, RGone will have a board soon also and then we will see what they do air cooled and watercooled which is where most end users will run and bench.
Nice job !, very very impressive :up: but i hope in the retail version can do it too, so when DFI will put or send to the shop because i want it too :D
That is a very nice chip, FSB and mobo there, great job and congrats Oskar/Jarry.
Keep pushing it.
Tony, it is going to be cool to see some bench/overclocking with air and water.
Looks very impressive but Id like to see full disclosure on the chipset cooling, voltage and what changes will be made in the retail board. I have spent way to much money chasing boards only to be disappointed that they do not perform as well for me as they appear to perform during benches....
mean no offense big Toe :D
sure I know that exactly, so I post this thread on Xtreme Overclking Section but not Intel Section.
I'm quite exciting with this WR benching,
it's not a marketing action, I'm not hyping it.
only to share the exciting news to all the overclkers.
as I'm in my office chating with jarry, he told me oskar cannot finish pi benching at 660fsb, then I suggest him using single channel and add some vdimm.
after I arrive home and check my mail-box, I saw there's a mail from jarry and including these screenshots.
really really amazing !
everyone knows that Air/watercooling is totally different with cpu under cold.
That's a hell of a board!
:shocked: :shocked:
well done :worship:
wasky
Vic, from the support side you would be amazed at how many people see these type of screenshots and think their board will do the same with stock cooling and no user prep. Screenshots with no clarification is a tech support nightmare.
And on a side note, it'd be nice to see what the board could do in your hands.
No offence taken m8, its just extreme cold makes boards do real nice clocks and only 10% of the enthusiast market wich is still 5% of total sales use phase change or chiilled water...so we have to cater for the larger market and show them the "real deal" as this is where the sales are ;)Quote:

i can't wait :)
Not bad...nearly as fast as 440x9 2:3 4-4-4. :p:

awsome.
ty for sharing.
nb+sb rev 2 ?
Bravo DFI congratulations guy. 670 Mhz FSB :shocked:
660 of FSB is impressive......good work victor and DFI;)
Awsome :o
fantastic! :D
when this mobo available?
any idea about the price?
tnx :)
Awesome :shocked:
670 FSB, I want this DFI :D
Devil's mobo :D
awesome :up:
cooling? LN2?
Congratz Oskar-Wu for the 666 fsb :)
What Voltage Vpll , Vfsb , Vnb ? please
But my E6600 win Fsb for Vpll
-> 645mhz valid cpuz with 1.7v Bios Vpll , 1.7v Vnb & 1.5v Vfsb :)
Great mobo and CPU and good job.
Keep pushing it.
If it can run 600+ on 10 multi...then I'll be impressed.

say dfi's P35 looks nice but DDR3 version ?
and 8X 8X cf or 16X 4X
k thx this meens blitz for me :D
Hell YEAH! SuperB!
LOL
670 FSB
amazing @_@
DFI roxx & nice mobo
Tony,
you are exactly right.
alot of people dont take the time to think, how is he getting these results, and just blindly assume the board will do this kinda FSB easily.
sub zero cooling, high chipset cooling, and various bios tweaks are what it usually takes to get this kinda FSB.
but too many people take this kinda thing, as "look at what the DFI board does at STOCK", which is very misleading.
yes... the board is at stock, but the cooling is not.
if you ignore mentioning how the OC was done, then a great deal of people will assume there was nothing to this shot, except the board itself, but the truth is much different.
yes, it is stock.
but the cooling is what made it possible.
so its kinda a double edge sword...
yes, it was stock, but no, it was not done in a way that most people would be doing thier OC.
failing to mention that, just gives people crazy ideas of what the board is capable of.
I think on WR's people need to be more thorough in telling how they did the OC, otherwise, it definatly feels misleading.
however for this OC...
it definatly shows, this board has insane potential behind it, and I definatly will be picking one up, the second I can find one at newegg.
Price?
max vdimm?
I have to believe it's at least 3v, considering that's what the 650i board had. I doubt they'd step back from that in any way.
IIRC the p965-Dark went up to damn near 3.4v.
Oh yes, there will be vdimm.
I share Charloz's opinion.
As for DDR3, who knows...But I bet it'll be enough (for new DDR3 kits to come out demanding the high vdimm requirements for the speeds peeps will get from lower-rated kits at higher voltage) :D
Definitely true, my E6600 B1 ES cpu on water max FSB = 501FSB. On Kayl Black FrozenSS 1/4HP doing 536-540FSB on Asus Commando.
@8x536FSB
http://fileshosts.com/intel/Asus/Com...4s500ms_tn.png
http://fileshosts.com/intel/Asus/Com...est_twk_tn.png
Still slow times compared due to being B1 stepping compared with my E6700 B2 @8x532FSB 1:1 4-4-4-5
Dam that's a gem cpu for sure 600FSB air... every single core 2 i have played with hits an FSB wall around 490-514FSB on water :(
I hope Oskar plays with other cpu steppings so he can tweak the board for best FSB for all kinds of cpus and not just his gems :)
what is a "gem"?
damn, it got better
672.5MHz valid :eek:
woot i do it reflects air/watercooling oc levels.
First of all my compliments to Oskar/Jarry and DFI staff for the good job to make available this great motherboard to all final users.:up:
After that I totally agree with Big Toe and Kunaak about approach followed in this bench. It is very important to report cooling used during bench sessions, otherwise the message gived to all final users could be very misleading.
:)
Wow impressive stuff.
Of course extreme cooling is being used to achieve this, but I don't think there are many records or good results without that kind of cooling.
Congrats on the WR, very impressive.
One question remains though. Is it a great chip that's given this board WR status? I'm sure it's a well built board (haven't owned a DFI that wasn't) but I for one would love to see that same chip in an Abit, Asus and Gigabyte P35.
Seems like a great new board from DFI.
I also totally agree that the test-details should've been mentioned from the start.
It's as always: There are the poeple who know what they are doing when it comes to overclocking, the ones who don't even remotely have a clue of what overclocking really means, and a few in between.
The second group thinks that they buy this board and then they'll be THE overclocking masters of the universe without breaking a sweat, whereas the first group knows that this kinda overclock could only have been done under extreme conditions, if the board is said to be at stock.
And if you don't tell the second group every step in "detail" (that means in a way they understand), they'll be totally lost in a few minutes, when using this board. Then they'll throw the poor board in the garbage (i.e. in today's real life: take it back to the place they bought it from and get it exchanged) and curse the day they bought this ******* motherboard.
Nothing new here.
If you build a board that is specially designed with tons of overclocking options, that most of the time only the engineers who built it understand thoroughly, this means a lot of satisfied overclockers, lots of totally frustrated noobs and nearly nothing in between. Sad but true.
Again congrats to DFI for another seemingly well engineered board.
But personally I really dislike the color scheme, while I love the current P965 Infinity's color scheme. :(
excellent DFI is back in the game.. :toast: now in really looking forward this board..
What a sexy FSB that 666 :rocker:
I want that mobo :eek2:
Nice MB....When available in Indonesia??
Hope this mobo comes out soon, hate to go with the P5K premium.
Damn that's a sweet mobo. I just hate how DFI is always late to the game tho...
Yeah...but when they arrive....they do it in a way that makes you forget all other boards for a given chipset :D (I am thinking about NF4 Ultra-D and Inifity P965).
Well, i dont know. In the past there were only a few good boards for every generation CPU architecture. Now today we can choose 30 powerfull conroe boards, and we dont need to wait for DFI. Who wants to wait months and months if other manufactures have allready good boards in store??
All the WR's where allready made mostly on P5B P965, and when the DFI P965 arrived, ASUS allready had P35 boards.
Yes, but Infinity P965 is the best implementation of 965 by far, beeing a very fast board. On the other hand, I tottaly agree, DFI delivers a little bit too late nowadays. Still, the P35 Lanparty seems to be a "total" board, and I think it is going to be pretty hard to beat.
I love my dfi n4 ultra but my G0 is here and I can't wait any longer. just ordered p5k premium.
dfi good
I will... No problem at all with it.
I am not in a major hurry to upgrade my 975 to a p35 as soon as its available. DFI takes longer, because they are generally better, and offer all of the features I like. I would rather wait a few extra months and get a board I would like to stick with for a year or two. Asus just doesnt cut it for me, and I have had bad quality from them in the past.
Really nice mobo :shocked:
Regards
AMAZING overclock!!!!!!!,it must have taken weeks with 2 guys trying to get that oc considering the vasttttttt array of voltage controls.
me and my friend are trying to tweak his e6600 and x6800 on the dfi rd-600 which is a complete confusing nightmare just to get to 460 fsb stable.theres soooooooooo many voltages and sub voltage parameters which is good and bad.lets say theres 12 voltages and 11 are right, 1 being off throws the whole clock off vs a standerd 4 voltages .the rd-600 is incredible but dfis bios are a lil much with all the pll voltages that effect ocing bigtime.all the mem timings options are AMAZING but the voltages have to be toned down....lol we figured with all the possible voltage combos and testing it should take about 32 days to to try each combo.
What a delightfully evil FSB. :devil:
Great, and i'm still crawling with my 500fsb ;f
How well does it do in Dual channel mode? Even if it go this fast in single channel who has run their rig with single channel memory since S754?
according to this other post, it was 666 dual channel,and 672 single. Pretty damn inpressive.
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=152232
When will it be available in Europe ?
c ya
I cant wait to see what this board retails for in australia ;) I hope its not as much as i think its going to be.

685 fsb

yeah that E0 is such a gem
i have an option to buy an E0 but just not sure if that was a one off or if others were just as good
where can you buy an e0?
new stepping? never heard before.....
seems to be a sick one :D
ah, i see.
the special es- connections.. gg
FSB 685 is not limit. I want to make sure PLL effect FSB or not.:)
Gettin soo close to the big 700 :eek: But...Mr. LN2, why not show us some big clocks on the 9x? :D
