**Official DFI LanParty UT 790FX-M2R Review/Overclock/Guide Thread**

[ZL1Killa]

my rig has been fine using my NON existent backplate for 2yrs+ so far. its up to ya

[Iketh]

many improvements in this official 1/3/08... my new ram should arrive tomorrow so im not busting my butt on my current ram just to start over again... ill post my results then

[Brother Esau]

Are any of you guys experiencing High Network Latency on this new Bios?

I have also experienced hard Game lock ups with the Bios in addition to a few C1 Errors and the ever present NIC Latency thing that was present in the Beta release >>>>>>>(sigh) gone back to 11/22/07 as I see nothing but problems present on my end with dual core and my set up!

Perhaps there is Merit and Worth for Phenom users but for dual core my opinion is the same 11/22/07 is the best to date!

I'll give the offical 1/3/08 a try later today or early tomorrow, but as long as it adds better ram timings (can I have my 1t Command Rates now please?) and some stability, so I can keep my newfound better NB, and HHT clocks, and not the other nasties in the beta BIOS, then all the better this BIOS would be than the 1/3/08 beta.

Hi all,
First sorry for my english

I tested this mobo with a 5000+ BlackEdition for 2 weeks, with all bios version, finally i use the 11/22/07 version.

Highest bus speed:
- 400*7.5 (CPU 3Ghz) (DRAM 600MHz)-> stable

DDR: 667
HT LINK: 800
CPU: x7.5

CPUVID: 1.44v
DRAM: 2.35v
SP PLL: 1.30v
NBcore: 1.29v
NBpcie: 1.29v
NB HT: 1.30v

CPU HT clock: 400
CPU HT boot: 300

- 405*7.5 -> post ok but unstable
- 400*8 or 400*8.5 -> crash during boot (i don't know why )

Highest CPU / Bus
- 380*9 (CPU 3.42Ghz) (DRAM 570Mhz) -> stable

DDR: 667
HT LINK: 800
CPU: x9

CPUVID: 1.456v
DRAM: 2.35v
SP PLL: 1.20v
NBcore: 1.25v
NBpcie: 1.25v
NB HT: 1.30v

CPU HT clock: 380
CPU HT boot: 300

- 385*9 -> not 100% stable with OCCT (perhaps cpu limit) SuperPi 10M ok
- 385*8.5 -> crash during boot

I try a lot of setting and voltage for 390-400*8 , it was always a freeze during boot.


My config:
CPU: 5000+ Black Edition
MOBO: DFI LanParty UT 790FX-M2R
DRAM: 2*1Go OCZ pc28500 reaper crossfire edition (5-5-5-15)
GPU: HD3870 PowerColor PCS @885-1150 (crappy ram)
Samsung HD501LJ (500 Go, 7200 RPM, SATA-II)
Seagate ST325082 (250 Go, 7200 RPM, SATA)
PSU: Seasonic S12II 500W

PUMP: Laing DDC Ultra AGB 12V
RAD: 2* 360
Waterblock CPU: NexXxoS XP Light Plexi
Waterblock GPU: NexXxoS XP Light Plexi
FAN CONTROL: mCubed T-Balancer bigNG

A little picture...

Nice Yes to bad DFI cannot write another Bios to date equivalent to the 11/22/07 Official with Added Phenom support and the USB Issues cleared up and other small little annoyances because they have the Right Mix working with the 11/22/07 and the rest suck!

[Rammsteiner]

What sort of 'drawback' was there again from running x.5 multipliers? At least there was a drawback back in the 939 days.
