**Official DFI LanParty UT P35-T2R Review/Overclock/Guide Thread**

[CyberDruid]

I am having an issue with getting CAS 4 with my OCZ RAM. Jimmyz told me that he is using Crucial without an issue at CAS4. So if you are looking fro tight timings maybe Crucial?

Guide to make USB Pen Drive Bootable + Flash Bios + Memtest

You're the Man John

[Brother Esau]

I like that programmer

Man I was just changing some UV lights around in the Poison and dammit if it did not freak the board out big time.

Gave me the old "playing dead" toutine for about 30 torturous minutes before I finally coaxed it back with the RESET/POWER button techniques described in the manual.

I have no idea what the heck happened either. Seriously just swapped out a couple of fans and added and some lights...

Maybe static?

Made me really want a BIOS chip though

If I'm wanting 4GB of memory, would it be better to go for 4x1GB sticks? Or 2x2GB sticks?

Seen these on special offer until Thursday
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=MY-096-OC

Would these work well? If not, what 1GB modules do you recommend to run 4 of?

This will be with a Q6600 G0

Heres my vote

I hear these things are using a new low voltage power chip & can hold 1100mhz + with 2.1v

All the results I've seen puts 2.1V max to be about right. Although speed wise 1040MHz is considered having a really good set.

Put ODT on 1-2 in Bios

[Jodiuh]

How much benefit is there really in oc the pcie bus? I suppose a quick 3dmark would show the difference, but if someone know off the top of there head, I'd appreciate the time saved.

[Brother Esau]

Just more Bandwidth to PCI-E devices as long as you stay around 105mhz you'll be good

[CyberDruid]

Odt?

EDIT: Gotcha

[Brother Esau]

You try the ODT in Bios Warren?

Has anyone put this board to the test with 8 gig and a quad core?

[Brother Esau]

Who's going to use 8GB and Quad with Overclock?

[shawn1998]

I am using 8GB and a Quad. Granted, my overclock at this moment is very small, it's at 333x9 (Q6600). But still, it's technically overclocked and it's a Quad.

Oh, btw, no issues with it, either. This board is an absolute dream to work with. Goodbye Abit, hello DFI.

[Brother Esau]

Ahhh first time DFI owner Once you experience DFI LanParty you are never satisfied with anything else!

[shawn1998]

Actually, not a first DFI owner. I was a DFI guy back when I used to run with AMD. The NF4 Lan Party SLI-DR was one of my favorite boards back then, it ran SLI very well and overclocked great! But, I then got the Expert when it came out and it all went downhill. I could not get it to not BSOD on me when running any 3d apps, it was very frustrating! Hence, the switch to Abit (AN8 32X Max). After a good run with them, I'm back to DFI and probably will be for a spell, as I am waiting for the DFI X38 board to come out.

[g0dM@n]

just to add to those that have had POST issues... all I did last night was bump my FSB from 490 to 514, then down to 500 and each time the board would turn on and not POST. I had to keep clearing CMOS. Now I'm back at 490fsb x7. This sucks b/c I'm just looking for a 24/7 setting so that I can do some tests during work to ensure it's stable for daily use. Who knows what's gonna happen when I start benching!! I sure as hell hope this thing can boot up with high FSB b/c my e6400 has some potential left in it.

I'm concerned, but not too concerned as my last DFI, the s939 NF4, was a cold-boot hater, and I got used to it... I just hate the wasted time from it, though.

You might need to bump the ClockGen voltage and tweak up the GTL. NB volts are critical of course.

I also found that adding to the percent of the VID helps at the edge.

[emoners]

is it possible to control RAM speed separately?

i bumped up the NB voltage, but what the heck is clockgen voltage? as for clockgen (the actual program), how do i go about getting it to detect and alter clocks... on my dfi nf4 i just ran the program and it worked. it seems that with this dfi p35 i gotta set something in clockgen settings. sorry for the 2 concerns in one, lol.

[CyberDruid]

Ahhh shoot there's a link a page or two above from eva2000 that explains how to enable ClockGen.

I do not use ClockGen...but for some reason increasing the voltage for it seems to add stability at the upper extremes.

Are you referring to these posts?

same clockgen as asus commando > http://i4memory.com/reviewimages/mot...35_T2R_27.html

thanks mate but just tried CY28551 and its not reading correct cpu speed or FSB.

use setFSB not clockgen

Looks like we'll have to use setFSB... never heard of or seen that program, but I'm sure I'll find it.

*edit* Found it here:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=105423
I'm assuming this works with our DFI T2R... I was skimming through pages and didn't see much reference, so I'm sorry if I'm doing something repetitive.

Well hopefully (maybe) the OP will put it in the 1st post.

My favorite overclocking tool is the Abit uGuru... you can adjust voltage, clocks, and whatnot all from the damn desktop...

Shhh, but at my old job I spent some days overclocking like half the day, remotely... yes, it's risky, but I live the fast lane!!! lol

[Brother Esau]

Tell ya what Uguru is kick Ass and thats one thing I really hated t give up with the Abit IP35 Pro
