ya that thing won't fit with my ultra extreme ... nice looking piece of kit though .. .

.. . . . .

400 is most common ... i'm sure a few people have pushed it further but they're more the exception rather than the rule .. .. . .

it takes a lot of tweaking to get 100% STABLE past 400 which...

i'm on qx6700 stable at 400x8 ... it would help if you posted your settings to see if there is anything glaringly wrong with them...


in general though, ya first have to get all the voltages...

hey guys ... i recently bit the bullet and have installed vista x64 on one of my drives... i gotta admit its pretty decent. compared to back in the beta days when i tested it they seem to have...

wow... so i got my first "hard crash" tonight . .. .

playing capcom's LOST PLANET which is a great game BTW... using my standard 8x400 OC which has been stable for months.

the game is...

ya i have but not much higher ... running the latest STABLE bios ...

400 FSB is really the sweet spot from what i've seen... as you go higher than that its a lot of GTL tweaking. at the time...

raja i appreciate ya getting the word out ... seems like the right thing to do.

even though this is a bump in the road i thank DFI for continuing to work on this board and attempting to improve...

prophetic words from a true wiseman . .. oh wait i said that. .. .


anyways, i stick with my original comment . .. . why would i mess up a board when its working just fine ??

this BIOS...

wow ... this thread has died... has everyone moved onto another board or something ? some hot new item out right now ?

the lonely few DFI 680i owners .. . . . .. . .

BTW in case anyones interested newegg has the new hitachi terrabyte drives in stock ..... limit 1 per customer so it makes raiding them a bit trickier... guess ya'd have to buy from two stores or...

well... i really started something with my comment ... its like i threw a thread hand-grenade in here... lol. . . ..

anyways, i have no performance charts ... i am just going by the way my rig...

ya this is something not talked about much in recent times... but i'm really let-down by the raid performance on the DFI board.... its just no good. i guess cause people who really care about raid...

if they do release another update i'll wait until the stable version is released.... i'm kinda hesitant since that "load last working settings" causing the DRAM overvolt . .. .

with the stacker 832 i have experience mounting it both horizontally and vertically... either way i've gotten it to fit without any permanent case modifications I.E. dremeling. . . . . there are...

i agree with raja ... 1.65v is extreme at 400 FSB ... i'd check your other settings first before cranking it that high... i haven't seen one person need it that high for 400 FSB...
