I post some rought scores up tonight after class. I am stuck here till 8PM. Once I get home, I get windows installed and go to work. all I want is 3.5-3.6GHZ 34/7 out of my 6300. i think i can get this with this board, but we shall see. probally start off slow starting at 333, move to 400, then up 10mhz at a time using a quick super pi and 3dmark 01 test.

Does this board have post troubles like the DFI infinity nforce2? Would an Enermax 500w liberty play well with this board?

/wait

[erwinz]

I think DFI delivers this time..

and really cheap too..

I highly doubt it has anything in common with the AMD based nforce2 with DDR1 and AGP three generations of hardware later.

as to whether or not it has a cold boot issue, i doubt it... no reports of it so far, and on most recent mobos if they do have cold boot issues they get fixed pretty quickly.

Very small. I have mine set for 1.4 in bios and on load the lowest I see it is 1.37.

that is NOT small...

[ziddey]

that is NOT small...

lol are you kdiding me. that's tiny!

on my ds3, i set 1.375 to get 1.312v under load (0.063v). it gets worse the higher up you go too. 1.5968 or whatever the one right before 1.6 got me 1.51v under load (about 0.08v)

then on my p5b vanilla, before i did mods, i had to set 1.425v to get 1.312v under load (0.113v!!!)!!!

I dont beleive DFI has ever had a vdroop prob w/ any Infinity / Laparty boards..

Sad that Asus.tek w/ $200+ boards are droopy.


Are you using the gxs for these tests? Very nice results, 490 is impressive imo.

GXS???

all testes with nvidia 8800gts 320mb


vdropp its pretty much the same as Asus p5b deluxe = 1.40v bios (+200.0mV) >> 1.40v/1.39v Idle >>>> 1.37v/1.36v Full


total from bios to Full = ~0.04v
