Foxconn Bloodrage-Quantum Force- -X58- -Retail-

[SF3D]

I thought to keep out of XS for a week or so, but here I am. Browsing this thread on Xmas evening. Well.. daughter is sleeping and there is not much to do while house is full of family.

Here is some information about CPU / VTT/ NB / Memory PWM:

CPU pwm has a independent controller for each phase, so each phase has it's own clockspeed and they are all controlled and synchronized by one large controller. Every phase is clocked at 600khz, which is normal, but since they are all aligned and clocked independantly, the effective clockspeed is 12x600khz, which is 7200khz.

Thit will beats any other pwm out there, even digital pwm's.

Vtt and memory pwm's are the same, so thats why high memory clocking is possible on BloodRage.

My CPU is clocking really well on this board and memory is hitting their own records. I saw that Fugger hit aleady 6min 48 seconds with BloodRage. That is crazy!

It's good that isn't available in my country since I would buy it already
OT: Just to ask something,is there going to be amd quantum force mbo? But with amd chipsets? I hope so you dont mind I ask that....

Thanks Saaya for clearing up the price confusion and explaining the warranty. I do agree that most that get this board will not keep it more than two years since they are probably overclockers looking for the next great thing. Anyway, the board is awesome. As far as the NB heatsink, I think you mentioned that any cooler could be attached to it as long as the holes lined up. Have you tried it with any other water block such as EK? Also, the holes for the 775 spacing, does this interfere with the 1366 back plate or can a 775 water block back plate sit on top of it? This would eliminate the need for a lot of us that already have 775 water blocks from having to purchase a new backplate and hold down plate. Thanks again for clearing a lot of this up. Have a Merry Christmas everyone.

MAN, wish i had waited just 4 short days to build my evga board and purchase this. i thought it'd cost a whole lot more for some reason. and i thought it wouldn't debut until like february.

Just ordered mine a few hours ago!

I probably shouldn't have since I just received an Asus P5Q Deluxe last week , but dang..I just have to have this one.

[Touge180SX]

Already sold out!

[SF3D]

Great price on Newegg. It will be 300€ in EU, but still it is almost cheapest board here

I'm waiting what other vendors will do about their prices.

This is interesting

[Oliver]

ya 4 sure its interesting, if you just compare the actual hw price is it as u say , 300 usd vs 300 euro which is 419 usd

Mn qeustion is the Scythe Orochi lga 775 compatible with this board ?
I got this cooler new in box lol and there is no mounting conversion
to skt 1366 .

It is compatible, because the BloodRage has LGA775 holes as well.
I haven't used a LGA775 cooler on it yet, but I'm going to do that soon as I'd like to see if it's going to bend or produce worse temperatures with the LGA775 mounting instead of the LGA1366 mounting ( I've got both mountings for the Ultra-120 Extreme here ).

Very good price

You can use your s775 monting kit. There shouldn't be any problems.

I use my Thermalright Full copper version with s775 mounting kit and there is no problems at all. Socket 1366 backplate can be under Thermaright backplate.

[s002wjh]

so whats the max bclk, cpu, and memory you guys get for this board?

[BrokeDown]

Newegg rocks. I'll definitely be ordering this soon.

[dengyong]

Newegg rocks. I'll definitely be ordering this soon.

It's in stock now.

[STEvil]

Wish that board was on ncix.. I had to get a UD5 instead :/

[dctokyo]

what's wrong with you guys? 300 bucks for a mb? how's that cheap!?

Well here in Japan the price is ￥27,800 or under $270 US as the yen is strong.

Now the Asus Rampage II Extreme is going for ￥46,980 , now that is more than 19,180 yen or $190 US over the Bloodrage.

Once again , this mobo is cheap, I pay ￥32,000 for my current ASUS Maximus II Formula

Well going down to Dos-Para to put in my order today.

I also live in Japan and just picked up my Bloodrage from DosPara today! They only got 20 in and they won't pre-order or hold for you so better hurry up! With the exchange rate now it comes to about $308 total!

Is this board gonna be somewhere near Singapore by any chance?

[SF3D]

Here we can see how MHz affect on 32M superpi:




Here is single 4870X2 score. (CPU just can't do more)



An here is 4870X2 CF result (See the low GT 4 bug)

[SF3D]

Here is random screenshot with 6-5-5-16 1T timings.



Here is 1052MHz 32M run with 8-7-7-20 timings. Quite nice efficiency without tweaking.



I'll try to max this setup in 32M today. (With aircooling)

Howe much volts did you use on these A-DATA 1600X XPG D9GTR sticks ?

Is this the same tread ? http://www.pcdiga.net/showthread.php?p=290540

2.0V- 2.08V. These can do 1GHz 7-6-5 @ 2.2V, so I hve to try to get my Uncore speed a bit higher. This CPU is not good even at that

I should start to use watermarks, cause my screenshots are flowing all around and nobody mention who have done those scores No big deal, but anyway...

[Aerou]

SF3D, yes you should tag'em ...
and the 6-5-5 is insane, really, 6-5-5 is where D9GTR shines

Haha.. maybe.

These A-Data sticks have been really flexible. From "low" voltage to "high" voltage scaling is good. Tight timings are best for these, but with 8-8-8-18 etc you will still see some improvement.

I'm waiting new memory kit, so I could do some 2.4GHz runs
