Experiencing the Giga 890FXA-UD5 + 1055T on air

[gooface]

Get the Xigmatek 1284EE. Its better than the Hyper212.

The Ultra Kaze should work, but it will be loud.

well is there a huge difference in the 2 for the $10 difference? if that fan is really loud what fan should i get then that has about the same power?

[crazydiamond]

the ultra kaze is loud on full power but should undervolt really good, when i had mine on cpu i had it set to run just like 800-1000 rpm when cpu is idle which is pretty quiet.. there should be bios settings for cpu fan to adjust its rpm vs cpu temp

diamont: did u tried how about temps in load with 2000rpm and 3000rpm?

ok, so the question is, is the XIGMATEK HDT-S1284EE worth $10 more than the 212 plus?

[crazydiamond]

i think its worth it for 1090t

flank3r, not sure, but when i had it set up it was something like 1000rpm until it gets to like 38c then start ramping up. it would hold 4ghz 1.47v at like i think around 48c with around 2200rpm it would only get to 3k rpm over like 53c which didnt happen under 1.5v... not sure if thats all accurate but its pretty close. 1.55v @ 3k rpm was about the max i could do, it would top out around 55-57c on the cores

[BeepBeep2]

I'd say so.

4-5c difference.

then heres my final question:

XIGMATEK Dark Knight S1283
XIGMATEK HDT-S1284 Enhanced Edition

whats better (they are the same price)

I have both, the S1284 is better, expesially with more air flow.

ok ill take the XIGMATEK HDT-S1284 Enhanced Edition with the ultra Kaze then, thanks for all the help!! this is why i love this place, fast replies!

[FlanK3r]

i have 1283 DK, we will see for some days

[ChrisB17]

I just purchased the UD5 from newegg. I had a question for people who own this board. Does the NB run warm and should I replace the TIM? Or is it ok with the stock stuff? Thanks.

Wise choise, I run an Ultra Kaze on mine as well.

got the fan and the heatsink and got this overclock (in my sig) and loving it!!
F2 BIOS is out BTW

[gooface]

ok people i have a problem here, my chip likes to only run at 800mhz alot of the time and when im in a game for instance it stays at that speed, and to make it run at 4.1ghz i have to restart my pc, am I the only one with this issue, i have the latest bios.... and this is starting to get anoying...

[crazydiamond]

its cool & quiet kicking in. it seems to be the biggest issue so far with most boards/bios.. even w/ c&q, turbo, c1e, etc. all disabled in bios, some boards are still activating the lower p-states. someone may have a work around for you but if not most likely will have to wait for a proper bios

[Mad222]

Did you turn the CPB on in bios ? If so, you wouldn't have any problem with the multi.

The F2 bios surely needs to be further enhanced, especially on the power saving features.

Hope giga will have someone to help ppl out in the forum

so i need to turn that on? if so at what setting on the mhz?

[Mad222]

Doesn't matter, just disable C&Q & enable CPB in bios

[mav2000]

Man...dying to get this board but still not available here....

[ChrisB17]

This board has been great so far. Took my 1055t to 4 ghz without any issues at all. One issue I dont like though is the slow boot up times with AHCI or RAID mode enabled. I wish there is a fix.

ok i had them both disabled before, lets hope this fixes my issue thanks...

[gooface]

big question, when i enabled the one performance boost thing i now get BSOD's left and right and i am trying to get stable but im sorta stable (not sure for 8 hours) and i have another question as well.

cuz i have F2 anyone else noticing the HUGE undervolt, me for instance i have to set it at 1.66v to achieve 1.55v, and every once and awhile it runs at 1.66v. so am I alone here, or should i go back to F1?

[Dahaka]

Anyone have more bench's with this mobo? i'm quiting from i7 and x58 platform to get some 1055T and 1090T and this mobo Tomorrow, i apreciate more SS and configs please guys .

[Dahaka]

This mobo is sweeeeet!!!



I can't pass over 1600MHz on memory
