DFI LAN Party UT NF680I LT SLI-T2R 1T 3d benching

Been working close with Tony, getting this thing up and high, have cracked ddr1000 1T cas 4, just need some work in finding stability, that is in sync mode btw @ 500fsb.

In any case, the best performance point according to Tony, and confirmed for me via my own experience is to run fsb at 1900-1920 in Sync mode, giving around ddr 900 to 917 1T. I'll leave the explanation of that stuff to the man who found the performance point via a lot of toil (Tony), since I don't believe in ripping off another man's work or IP and calling it my own.

Board boots out of bios @ 500fsb and above, I have not yet tried to find the maximum, as i have been concentrating on the performance point...

So Kudos, to Tony, Bingo13 and Rgone, Jimmy and Oskar who have worked tirelessly to get this board rocking hard. Those of you who will have the board for benching will soon find out that there are definite advantages to Oskar not picking up a reference design board ;)

Back to the fun part this board is crazy fast, bear in mind I'm not even a great bencher or tweaker, I leave that stuff to the big boys.

Latency in everest is around a sweet 40.7 ns on the 1900fsb run, obviously 3d mk 03 won't make full use of the latency, but well maybe fun times and an indicator for the super pi fans especially 32m...

Components of interest that were used

X6800
NB water cooled with DD Chipset Cooler
2 GB OCZ Reaper 9200
SS cooling on cpu...
2x 8800 GTX @ 625/1000 NO LOD used at all, or any other tweaks, staright XP install, no tricks, hacks cheats or funky undisclosed cooling other than the SS unit.

first up a 1760fsb run in sync mode,

and another @ 1900fsb

fastest for me with this CPU and board...not all will do 500fsb so you need at least a 9 multi IMO

975 1T ;) Reaper 9200.

Good to see this board can be a top performer in the right hands! How it will do in my hands, is another matter, yet to be seen :)

quad core ocing ... can it do 400+fsb??

Raja@ASUS

I have not popped in my quad yet will try soon, if required I'll even send it to Tony..

Yes... I am working on the Quad core now with a specific Quad BIOS from Oskar.

my X3210 is running right now 8x400 on it @1,35Vcore .... more as soon as i have more tests completed ...

Where can we get the latest BIOS from? I'll be in need of the best quad core bios tomorrow.

Exciting stuff guys, thanks for keeping the thread updated frequently!

Tony...so not all boards are capable of 500fsb or not all cpus will run 500fsb even with multiplier turned down?

Can you run >533 unlinked with 1T. My best bandwidth and latency times were at these settings and they stay 24/7 stable on Striker. That will make my decision to switch to this board.

Wow, 533 @ 1T, what timings do you run to keep that 24/7 stable? In anycase very impressive!

How would it be compared to Coolalers QX6800 @ 450FSB?
I´d like to see QX6700 OC.

well give Bingo13 and me some time, and we should have something, fwiw if we find 450 you'll find they really do 450, I can't speak for results from previous bios's and users....;)

the NB chipset is the key to doing 500fsb, most will run 480 or so with a few doing 500 and higher. My board will do 480 no problem...500 no way but with the strap change at 500 that goes a lot looser why would i want too?.

raja hinted at 450fsb...sync mode, trust me thats where you want to run the board ;)

you guys are all fixated with 500+fsb, you really should be looking at where the boards make the best speed and buy the cpu to suit.

Raja@ASUS

fully agree man, the latency that you can hit easily at 1900-1920 just simply rocks in sync mode. I am finding myself getting into the top 30 on the bot with stock gpu clocks...

Tony's guide....

btw sync clocking is sweeter on the reaper pc9200 than my cellshock cas 4 ;)

4-4-4-5, 4-4-3-5 for benching.

Takes 2.3v on Dominator 8888. 2.34 on OCZ TI 8000

Been running for a few months that way. Have some screenshots on imageshack somewhere. Latency is 37.5 and Bandwidth is 128xx. I had some bandwidth shots narrowly to 13k at 1100, but timings need to be looser to get that high.

Also it is not sync clocking. I learned along time ago that OCZ is doing something with their SPD to run 1T different.

Flash SPD from an OCZ stick on your cellshock and it will increase.

Most of my sets were dieing around 960-970 sync, then I flashed OCZ SPD and got another 100-130 mhz :).

Trick is 7:9 strap is very fast and very stable. That is the only bandwidth shot I can find. Sandra bandwidth of 9000 is pretty good, I believe I got up to 9,300 when I was really tweaking it though.

this is boot from bios, about to bench so more later...

QX6700

this board is all about gtl ref tuning for quads...

If that is Mr. Wu's result on fixing the quadcore issues on the 680i boards, I'm sold. I am tired of working on this IN9 32X
