I know that this is an old thread. But I hate googling things and finding that the OP has moved on, so here is a past due update:

I haven't tried 4 sticks, but the UD3 has my Hynix BFR at 2133...

I ordered one. AFAIK the ram clocking only becomes more of an issue when moving to 4 sticks, and I'll be using 2 for now.

I achieved that, sort of, with my older chip. 1242 PGT. 5Ghz stable with OCCT, but not P95. That was with my UD7 and water, haven't tried it yet on the C5F-Z. But I'll likely be trying that chip...

I'm saying I don't know yet :P Budget rig has water but a crappy board, I'm replacing the mobo likely with a UD3. Main rig has a C5F-Z but I'm waiting on a second 290X block to complete my loop,...

Thanks Beep. If I go that way I would definitely hold out for a rev 4. Do you know if they've improved the ram clocking? I had a UD7 with LLC (1.1 IIRC) that I was happy with, except for ram...

Trying to choose between a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3, and an Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0 to get the best day to day OC for an FX-8350 on water for a secondary rig on a budget.

The Gigabyte has 8+2 and I...

So, I received a 1402 chip, but can't test it properly. My main rig is waiting on my time and a couple of parts to finish the loop described in my sig, so it's in limp mode on air ATM.

The...

Ok, I've ordered an 8350. Will post back when I have a chance (may take a while, Canada Post from the other side of the country!).

Is yours a recent batch tbone? It doesn't sound like you've pushed it to it's maximum potential yet either, but settled into a sweet spot for a modest oc and reasonable volts.

Stilt, I understand...

I figured as much, plus the process should be more mature now. However I bought an 8320 8 months ago to put in a C4F system that I sold (yes, C4F, it does work), and I gave it a test run in my...

Hi all, haven't been around here much lately! I'm planning to buy another cpu to OC for a fast daily driver in a second system. My 1.5 year old 8350 does 5GHZ on water, I'll likely move it to a...

Good stuff. Too bad about having to redo tests!

I'm actually curious about the universal blocks (and tasteful vrm cooling), as well as full cover EK vs XSPC. I have a single 290 that I'm about...

I've already been trying to either buy OR sell them, but there aren't a lot of folks locally interested in quality ram (or owning it). I've thought of posting here,
but not sure how much of a pain...

Thanks for the link, it also confirms that my sticks are BFR, and gives me a few to check out, although of course it doesn't list the 10666 kit.

I understood that he was suggesting that I use...

Thanks, but I'm already fairly certain my kit is BFR, although for fun I'll check the sn against the thread you linked. I'm trying to learn if the F3-10666CL7-8GBRH kits still for sale at various...

They don't make these any more. I'm on a budget, and would like to add another 2X4GB kit. I believe that they are Hynix BFR H9C.

The F3-10666CL7D-GBRH are rumored to be the same. Can anyone...

Ideally I'd like to have two d5's in the loop, but money is tight and I'll be using the other pump and mcr220 in another system that I'll sell. I've got an mcr120 lying around and my fx-8350 just...

For a while now I've been running mcp655 and mcp650 pumps to power a 3X120 and 2X120 rad, with...

Not well. Mostly I've read that this is not possible, but in the link I posted there is a reference to someone that...

@demonkevy666
Are you experiencing the overheating/throttling issue?

@AMDforME
I've read in another forum that 1.1 addressed the droop, and that particular user is not experiencing VRM...

:dammit: I thought you were referring to the 1.0 mobos when you mentioned this earlier. I suppose "refuse to fix" should have tipped me off. Have you experienced this yourself on a ud7?

Anyone...

I ordered the 8350 rather than the 8320, since there was only a $20 difference at NCIX.

I also went with the Gigabyte UD7. I appreciate your input, but I have had a better experience with them...

Thanks for the prompt replies guys.

I'm sort of leaning Gigabyte, since my 790XT-UD4P was bulletproof for me, I'm a little disappointed in Asus, and the UD7 seems feature rich for the price if the...

Hey gang, it's been a long time!

Looking to put together an oc'd vishera on water, on a reasonable budget, and have a couple of questions.

1. Is it worth the extra $30-$40 CDN for an 8350 over...

This sounds like a lost opportunity for many companies to snap you up. :shakes: :shrug: :shocked:

I hope you find work that you are passionate about, that rewards your efforts well, and leaves...
