Just boot up at 5528MHz after a fresh install and run a Spi 32M; :) Time was crap BTW but stability amazed me.
Then I've clocked a bit to see how high it can go. :)
Looks quite good actually, but not as FSB friendly as the P35 series... Anyway, I've to use it a bit more to improve my knowledge.
-
Awesome results, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
A bit off topic, but I just got this board in yesterday but haven't used it yet.
I haven't OC'd on a DFI board since the socket 754 days, so I'm kinda nervous about how long it'll take me to figure this sucker out.
Theoretically, would you mind if I PM'd you for some info and help at some point?
-
*waiting for more benching results *...............
-
-
Good job...
Looking forward to further information...
-
Could you test max stable FSB and max super pi FSB,I'll be very pleased
-
yeah we wait for max FSB for this new stuff...
-
looks good, cant wait for more results
-
Nice results :up: , we need more pics :)

Nope, but damn close ;)
It's one hell of a board though. 'Can do some amazing things this little beaut.

-
great mb, any comparison to dfi x38/p35?
-
Only higher binned x38 as far as I know
-
Nice results, looks like DFI created a very good board, did you have any time to test how it clocks ram (especially at low latencies)?

Think all of Europes review samples got shipped yesterday - mine has arrived too ;)
-
Nice results, I feel jealous, pitty it won't be avliable in the uk.

Scan has it in stock
shame they charge both arms, legs a kidney and your first born for delivery to anything but mainland though (yes, i hate citylink), oh well, Importing from europe ftw:up:

Thank you guys :toast:

Yeah; of course; feel free to do so. :)

FSB is definitely not the strong point for this board... BTW I guess the matter isn't actual board but the chipset itself. :)

It looks quite good for this job. :up:
So; I've managed to perform some Spi32M this morning. Here they are. First one is crap... really crap considering the CPU clocks. Second one, ran with 266FSB strap is better by far. :)

I know that FSB isnt strong point of this board,but I really want to see how far can it go...
-
Nice Xavier :)
Can you please post some info on max options in BIOS, and the max FSB?
-
Thanks mate :)
Ok guys; I've tried it with my 640FSB+ E8500 and the best it can boot at was 550FSB... and Spi1M wasn't able to pass even at 540FSB... So i've turned the cascade off... :D No need to loose time on this matter. So far X48 chipset isn't the one to clock FSB.
-
I have the Ballistix also and am having an incredibly hard time getting this board stable or even into windows. Can you possibly show some of your mem settings so I can duplicate them?
-
Before!
Great Results and great mobo and CPU youv'e got there .
Can you Post SPI 1M ??
-
Looks like a sweet board even it anit good for high FSB
Gonna stay turned in.... for more results :up:
Keeep pushing it :D
-
Really nice Xavier :up: I certainly wish that this board is a good ram clocker ... Any bios pics ? Also, do you know if DFI is planning on releasing a DDR3 version one ? :)
-
Thanks :toast:

Basically; I set in BIOS 5-4-4-8; and tRFC to 35 cause I guess the DFI doesn't like this one to be tightened too much.
What about yours?

Ok; I'll do one; but I rather prefer to test with 32M. It's much more interesting to assess high clocks stability.

Thanks :) DDR3 version will be called T3R.
Here's an improved 32M. Definitely this board is clocking both CPU and DRAM like a charm. :)

Yes, they are..

great going bro... i've received this board yesterday, will try it with my E8500 and my cascade too :D
5.5ghz stabilty test is nice... but times is not that good :(... is it the board or you not tweak the pi run??

I'm afraid the E8500 won't be pushed too high with this board. FSB limit is somewhere within 530 to 550FSB here. :(
I haven't tweaked the Spi32M, but I guess times aren't too bad considering the FSB. :)

Slight improvement. :) 9m49s might be expectable.

Well done man ;) Great board, look at that DDR2 going wild ... :yepp: :D Excellent ram clocker as always ;)
I suppose you mean though 8m49s and not 9m49s ... :p:
-
Thanks mate. :)
Of course; what a shame! :D I meant 8m49s... lol

BUT everytime I watch one of your results I have to adore Lady Bertha! :rofl:

nice clocks, can that 9650 hit 6ghz?

Thanks guys :toast:

Dunno... Well maybe, but with 2v+ and -115C / -118C.
So, I've removed the CPEV from 2nd stage of Petite Bertha Cascade, and try to get a good amount of R1150 in order to achieve some decent temperatures. First tries weren't very good cause without CPEV I've lost about 10C+, pressure for pressure, load for load.
But today morning, before changing the captube lenght, I've decided to go for a bit less of R1150... and I finally got pretty nice loaded temperatures... at about 5.6GHz using 1.97vCORE for Spi 32M, top/'hotter' part of the evaporator shown -103.5C (evap pressure was 0.6bar that means -112C).
Well, that's nearly the same than it was with the CPEV installed, that's damn good considering the load.
Ok now, back on topic. I've ran a Spi 1M as requested earlier in this thread, and then improved the 32M. I definitely love this board, very reliable voltages, and clocks DRAM like a charm.

@before
come on,push it and give that sweet baby a superPI1m...:D oh srry u have done it
-
Great Work Before:up:
I love DFI Boards:clap:
Cumps
-
great results!
Hey man nicely done! This mobo has good things to show afterall...
Can you ake a guesstimate and tell me what kinda LOAD in watts you are getting on that setup?
