Foxconn Quantum Force Black Ops X48 OC Guide (56k Warning)

[Nosfer@tu]

IMO Foxconn BlackOps is over-stabilized to get the best results for OC at sub-zero temps. It is designed for benching, not for normal operations (as we know, air cooling of NB or water cooling with copper-aluminum design is a joke).

I could run qx9650 with 1.392V rock-stable on 780i at 4.2GHz, and for the same stability I have to apply 1.45V WITH Vdroop compensation enabled! on BlackOps for the same CPU and the same 4.2GHz.
I had been able to run 460MHz FSB with the same QX9650 on 790i (unfortunately, te motherboard was not prime-stable), on BlackOps I can run 420 FSB stable with safe voltages, not crazy ones, posted by Cpt. Planet in his overclocking guide.

1.81V CPU Vcore (according to a BIOS picture) for 4.278 GHz on CPU 24/7? That is insane!

If you guys want to sell Foxconn products, you need to make your forum active with professional responses and provide some REAL OC guides, not something like this ...

Nobody here works for Foxconn dude!
Be happy he bothered helping you out with a guide ?

Give us some REAL comparison here ? So you cant run 460 fsb with a Quard on the Blackops
Set your bios better dude It is EASY.

Why is air and water cooling a Joke ? I dont get that ? Ever heard of anti corrosion ?
Why did you buy the board then ?

Well, we all bought the board with RETAIL BIOS ...

If that is the biggest problem, Maybe you should by an Asus board

ALL new boards have issues in the biginning!

Be happy with your new board, And show us some results ?
