pangingIII, nice. it does look like if i could could get 560x8 or higher w/1:1 i should be able to beat my SPI 32m score. by the way that is a nice e8400 you have 4439at 1.36.sweet.UPDATE- maybe the 8gigs of ram make a difference in SPI 32,mine didnt do to well.

Finally got some time to play about with my UD3P over the weekend & I got to say this is a strong board

I run 10H of prime @ 4350mhz with 4 x 1GB sticks of ram on the 266 strap & my HD4870X2. My DFI LP UT P45 run out of puff at 4350mhz on the 333 strap & it didn't like my 4870x2 much either so all in all Im a happy Gigabyte camper.

The Everest read & latency are a little down on the DFI but thats just a tweaking thing. I ran my mem a tad slacker the PL on channel a @ 8 instead of 7 on the DFI & the DRAM "Performance Enhance" was slackened off to standard to keep the NB voltage low.

Here's what I did to get her stable.

Finally I´m stable

but first I would like to say thank you to SpeedEuphoria, radaja and most all pangingIII who made this possible. Thanks guys

Here it´s, 450 4050 1200 555 15 tRD7 Turbo, it passed 50 loop LinX, 5hrs Prime95 Blend, 1000% HCI memtest and 2hrs of loop with Crysis Benchmark Tool (Harbor Assault).



I know, my chip isn´t the best but it need that much juice (1,36 under load) to stable, therefore the temp, maybe if I reset my HSF I can cut 5C.

I´m not impress by the Bandwidth and latency but then again I´m use to X48 DDR2 performance.


But I most say, I still think this P45 chipset is a very sensitive one.

0,02 volt in either directing and it´s unstable or it even worst, it won´t boot and it´s the same with the MCH ref, two steps in either directing and it won´t play.

I now move on to 500 8 4000 1200 555 15
