Great results, great scores, all is GREAT!!!

I could only say bad words about my TA870+ mobo.
Worst BIOS i were ever seen.
When you unlock CPU some funcions in BIOS cause system down on powering button... When BioUNLOCKing is activatet than HT multiplayer, cpu VID, NB multiplayer are unavailable and system HANGS, no PCI-E frequency settings option, no AHCI drives settings option... Only thing you could move are "FSB" and Voltage settings. So i reach 245fsb x13.5=3310MHz, NB 2450MHz and HT 2450MHz (no HT multiplayer downing when unlocking)!!!

870 chipset, BIOS problem?:(

My experience of these other issues?

(Athlon II X3 425, Pehnom II X2 555 Unlock enabled 4 core.
But:
-HT link (X Multi) auto 10x, OK
-Multi manual 10x (2000), failed
-Multi-9x (1800), failed
- Multi 8x (1600), OK

Nice board GT:up:

I got the same board. Any new bios?

The new BIOS is not yet.
Using 0506 bios:)

Biostar They're trying to improve memory performance:up:

Bro., I like your platform set up very much...always neat & tidy:up::up::up:

BTW, 960T for sale in Korea now ?
No 1090T & 960T here in Hong Kong...no nothing!:mad:

namegt: brilliant work !!! Did u try superpi 1M with great 955 BE superpi 1M.
And your 4600 MHz Cinebench run with 1090T, whats cooling? Thx.

nice results

Good compilation of all the game you have experienced ;)

How many power phases does this board have? I can't get that coz of huge heatsink. :shrug:

Incredible collection of top results there, congrats for a job well done :clap:

how's the fan control off the mother board on this board ?

I'm not liking this Q fan thing from asus.
where I can't set lowest rpm and max speed for a certain temperatures. (like the jetway board I have, that's not even using pwm fan either.)

always amazing namegt!

& yes HK where usually new stuff comes out first is left in the dark this time with the 960T & X6 core CPU's :(
i guess their being punished for selling them too early before the NDA was lifted

namegt, i dont know if i ever told you but your :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing crazy!!!! great stuff man :up:
