Do both, but if you have to do one it should be the northbridge.

Yes, it's a fsb limitation on the x38 chipset with regard to 45nm quads.

Nice. Thanks for sharing.

So, what's the excuse? Is it a race to see who hits the "report" button first? Some really good guys are no longer members here... sad. :shakes:

Note to self: Must tread softly on XS these days.

Got it for $79.99 with free shipping. They're rated CAS 8 @ 1333 @ 1.5v; I'm running them at 1600 8-8-8-22 @ 1.65v stable....

I have the EP45C (the DDR2/DDR3 combo board), and I'm using the 1333 G.Skill ripjaws (rated for 1.50v). The voltages go very low, all the way past 1.25v (didn't try to find out lowest volts).

Oh,...

I guess you could start by asking all with 500fsb (+/- 15) to raise their hands up. Frankly, I don't think anyone has bothered to look at the numbers, but if 500 fsb is what you're personally looking...

What's your pci-e frequency set to in the bios, do you remember?

Funny you guys are still meddling with clear cmos; I've never had to touch that thing for probably the last two years or so. With this board and some memories, usually, pulling one ram stick can do...

Re-seat the cpu, could not all pins are making contact. Be sure you have no bent-pins; also up vtt and vnb a notch - that could make the difference. Is the system overclocked?

No enthusiast should be talking about 1156 and 1366 in the same breath, that's why they're for different market segments, and targeted towards different end-users. However, the gap between this...

Right there, is where you're wrong - prime IS NOT small ftts alone. The real deal is large ftts (especially when you're running high clocks with high fsbs and ram around 1200mhz). The reverse is true...

Me! Me! Me! :hump:

Sounds good; looks like you got it all figured out. Though when it comes to ram OCs, s1156 is the king. I'd also go for a single rail psu (I'm sure you already know that, :p:

I wouldn't say that, for the following reasons:

1. When you consider power consumption (idle,load), s1366 is an expensive platform that keeps getting more expensive everyday you use it. The very...

Some amazing clocks in this thread; how do you guys get all these nice chips?

P55 is the new budget/mainstream platform, so if money is not an issue, go x58 (enthusiast platform), especially since you're looking to add another graphics card in the near future.

Oh ok. You can always invite me to come watch you in action, you know. :p:

Give it some cpu frequency - it should scale well. Also, '06 is using only 4-threads, no?

That's too much power for one man to wield. :shocked:

How much is this kit?

Thanks Nub.

Ladies and gents, I present to you, 500 loops of linpack! Easy as pie; took less than a minute :rolleyes:

:eek: :ROTF:
...

Does 30 minutes of priming at 8x525 fsb count? :D Sorry, couldn't help it. I could show you more, but you don't deserve it. How about you show me a quad at 8x512 32M? That shouldn't be too difficult?...

You beat me to it Sergio. The guy is only stable at 457 and he wants to see what? :ROTF:

2000mhz cas8 :eek: That got my mind racing....
