sub zero cooling, high chipset cooling, and various bios tweaks are what it usually takes to get this kinda FSB.
but too many people take this kinda thing, as "look at what the DFI board does at STOCK", which is very misleading.
yes... the board is at stock, but the cooling is not.
if you ignore mentioning how the OC was done, then a great deal of people will assume there was nothing to this shot, except the board itself, but the truth is much different.
yes, it is stock.
but the cooling is what made it possible.
so its kinda a double edge sword...
yes, it was stock, but no, it was not done in a way that most people would be doing thier OC.
failing to mention that, just gives people crazy ideas of what the board is capable of.

I think on WR's people need to be more thorough in telling how they did the OC, otherwise, it definatly feels misleading.

however for this OC...
it definatly shows, this board has insane potential behind it, and I definatly will be picking one up, the second I can find one at newegg.
First of all my compliments to Oskar/Jarry and DFI staff for the good job to make available this great motherboard to all final users.

After that I totally agree with Big Toe and Kunaak about approach followed in this bench. It is very important to report cooling used during bench sessions, otherwise the message gived to all final users could be very misleading.
