Heres a few hints that you may already use.

1) When starting up the program, quickly grab the bottom left windown handle of the dialogue button and minimise it to the smallest it will go.... this will give you a big boost.

2) On Dual cores selecting 4 threads instead of 2 gave big increase. On Kents I didn't notice any/much difference of selcting say 8 threads., but on your x8 select 16 threads... just to experiment in the advanced button.

Get back to me with your results... or perhaps you know this already.

lol, thx riptide,
1) i've tried before but it does slower
maybe due to os optimize.
and after mini the window, u can only run wprime for 1time, 2nd time cannot finish.
2) clowertown have no HT, so 4cores to 8threads, 8cores to 16threads is running slower, and I've tried also.

for me, i'm now running wprime at least 3times, scores would be better

I've got 4x1GB Kingston ValueRam 667mhz FB-DIMM's but mine stop at 400mhz... figuring out vdimm mod on my X7DAL-E still. Have VNB figured out I think, but FB-DIMM's are limiting, not northbridge (other than heat, 80c+ without directed air) as far as I can tell.
yes, I've noticed that, so a 4000rpm 9cm fan cooling NB and Ram
would u plz share ur X7DAL-E's vdimm/nb mod guide, I think SM mobo all the same
