[Blacklash]

Thanks Eva2000

Now I don't know if I want to order this or just get a P5B Deluxe Wifi.

[Gautam]

it's fast but not the fastest


E6700 L629B079 @3900Mhz - 10x390FSB
Asus P5B Deluxe 1101 bios
2:3
2GB OCZ PC2-8000 Titanium Alpha VX2 @585Mhz 4-4-4-4

Yeah and neither is that.

You guys can drop whole "which board is faster thing," its practically 100% dependent on the MC which the DFI obviously shares with every other i965P board out there.

The DFI's strengths are clearly its price and voltage options. The P5B has the bells and whistles. Make a decision based on that and not on pi scores...

dont forget DFI have 5 (five) RAM MODES and 24 Ram settings you have to try them all to find the best config to SPi1M







Btw:
my friend on Asus P5B deluxe its even faster

Wow, that's simply amazing. 1066 strap ain't so bad after all if you can get it to run at high FSB's...ask your friend if he can try doing the same at CAS 3 now.

Nice times there.. but pi is pi.. we all love pi

[Raja@ASUS]

in the case of 32m, there's a whole host of 'tweaks' people use, hard to compare apples and apples when one does not know for sure how many of the tweaks have been applied or if any at all on some runs. Copy waza, maxmem, 2003 to name but a few legal ones, and that's not considering the use of other 'special' programs that are being used here and there by people. That being said depends if you buy your boards just for 32m, it's a nice bench, but I would not make a purchasing decision based upon that alone.

All of yous are having great success but my mobo seems worse then my infinity 975x. I used run that board 9x400 mem@500 4-4-4-12 prime stable for 10 hours. But with this thing i cant even do it for 10 mintutes.

[Bail_w]

I dont know if any one else have this issues with this motherboard, when i ran blend stressing in orthos or prime95, there are squeezing sound comes out from the motherboard?

don't compare your results to eva! he's a mem tweakin' freak. his results are highly tweaked (most of the times unless noted).

the dfi looks to be a good board and it's cheaper than the p5b deluxe.

[Blacklash]

Well newegg took down their projected arrival of today and it's disappeared from ewiz again.

@shimmishim

I don't doubt it's a top-notch board. I still have pages bookmarked where Coolaler was showing it off. You're right about the price, it's very nice.

Glad I pulled the trigger then

[TEDY]

are you guyz buying mobo based on who has better pi or because of overall benefit?

if you're buying cause of "who has longer " you're pathetic...get a life people :P

no offense

[bloodbanger]

lol,i stopped wondering about those things Tedy...i know most people around here don't care about their e-penis,but really wanna take hardware to the limt...On other sites,it's quite different...

[Bail_w]

i bought this motherboard because it can help me achieve extra 100mhz on my e6400 @ 3620 with the same voltages of my Asus p5W @ 3480. so i think it wroth it.

[MADMAX22]

man not at all, i just want a mobo that can run ram fast as it can (or atleast is rated for) and i want to be able to use a multi and high fsb with my 6600, ever since my p5b-d died i have not had that, the quadgt is a great board but couldnt oc ram

so i got this guy which has everything i need for $145 so

and running pi and stuff is fun anyways

I consider myself a pc enthusiast that likes leading edge cost conservative technology. I have a couple of E6400's & one does 4 ghz easily on air with 1.58v@ load. The only board I could easily achieve this on was the p5b deluxe. Every other board I have either won't reach 500FSB or is unstable when getting their. Others seem to be reaching 500FSB with little to no increase northbridge voltage. It also appears to be a stable 500 FSB, & not just for Pi runs. This board may succeed where the Rd600 failed & help me max out my E6400.

P.S. my order from eWiz has already shipped

Hi,Rmclock work great whit this Dfi?

[Jodiuh]

Ive seen pictures of it...

Forgive my tiness, work took a mean turn the other day. Also forgive the blur in the pic below. The intel style loop's too close to the bridge and this means the hook hits the nb wo/ coming free. Bending the loops will get them out alright, but putting everything back caused some slip-slidin' on the nb. Contact looked good after checking and it gets wicked hot wo/ fan, so it's doing a great job wickin' away the heat. It just would've been nice to have holes.

[m3nace]

Best i could do



Not really the reason why i purchased the board but definitly a nice board.

[TEDY]

where did you get this new smart guardian guyz?

[MADMAX22]

it came with my board on the cd

[TEDY]

[m3nace]

[MADMAX22]

ive got version 2.03 also

by the way heres the highest oc ive gotten on this baord, just a suicide type run but oh well,

[megatron]

It just would've been nice to have holes.

I was planning on putting a Thermalright hr-05 on the NB, will this fit if there are no mounting holes?
