VERY wd. looks like all the p45 chips are doing really well.
this retail board?

[Tharshan]

No... I don't think so

What problems did you have? I will also have this board for some tests The board looks pretty decent with plenty of oc options, dual LAN, TPM chip etc

strap 400 and 2.00D doesn't work. mch voltage helps a lot

[Tharshan]

653 was possible with 2,1 v pll and 0.68v mch referance

2.1vpll on 45nm? your cpu will degrade very easily

2.1v pll on air to 45nm ? ooouch

2.1v pll is too high ... i did 700mhz with 1.5v !

Hehe. I'm not 100% sure if it wass pll or mch referance that helped

But i have learned a thing. Don't start with a new board under DICE! Hehe...

Hehe. I'm not 100% sure if it wass pll or mch referance that helped

But i have learned (a) 2 things. Don't start with a new board under DICE! Hehe...

And don´t punish your CPU with 2.1V PLL
