PAY DAY - FOXCONN BlackOps - 7.5 WRs down...

[George_o/c]

George great score , but in order to "overtake" () Andre, you need to tweak your system better (Of course you know it already - and as you said it was a practice run, I just pointed it out )
Ah, I hate when you do that thing ... Having all us waiting patiently so that you upload all of your scores together

My BlackOps just came today, it has to be the best Motherboard I have ever owned, it's orgasmic, and big as a #%#%$.


I think I am going to love this board..

So should i put my E8500 or the Q9450....?

lol are you the first person on XS that actually paid for one of these boards hahahaha

If you guys take a closer look at cpuz it says Core VID (default v) rather than Core Voltage (actual), and 1.250 as a default vcore is perfectly fine

Bench on !

It looks that you both (you and T_M) are correct - it is definitely a bug on Foxconn BlackOps (I have V core instead of 1.38V, as shows Foxconn Aegis - shown as 0.936V and so on on both CPU-Z and Lavalys Everest CPUID), both show incorrect V core or sometimes instead of V core CPU-Z shows Core VID data, which is definitely default at 1.25V on BlackOps instead of 1.13V following the specification of qx9650.

I have a question - if there is a bug of Foxconn BlackOps and CPU-Z results are somehow not reliable, can we accept posted here over-clocking results for BlackOps, validated by CPU-Z, as reliable? We can only assume reliablility of such results, right?

gmcg, do you also have any problems with your multiplier in XP? With my board, any BIOS setting above 8x will revert in windows to 8x, and i have to upclock the multi using CPUID every boot

I hear that with another retail board yesterday.

I will have Our Reviewer test it for you to.

Might be a dumb question, but did you enably CPU Frequency Unlimit?

Yes, I do. With P02 BIOS it was maxed at 9.5, I thought may be they have limited it for the launch and official release users and flashed G22 BIOS. It is funny, but now the limit is min x6 and max x0 , but it changes nothing. I will try other BIOSes too, G21, G20 and then G17 - had no time to looks through everything carefully on this weekend though.
I had to replace a bad brand new Seagate ST31000340AS, which I have purchased for a storage, it showed critical temps at 62-63C ... probably failure of the temp sensor such as the drive itself was pretty cool.

LOL, sorry for being lame, but that was a cause for 6-0 multiplyer, now it is up to 60, thanks. I have never had such BIOS before.

Which cpu did u use Tim?, i have no problem at all with retail both, g17 g21 and g22 no problems at all...
