is it possible to run with a TRD of 6 (7 Set with all Pull-ins enabled)
@ 400FSB with Mem at 1066 (400/1066 strap)

im using a Q6600 @ 3.6 & 2GB RAM and when i ever i try and test for stability with prime95 the system hard locks unless i set it to 8 with pull-ins enabled

ive tried upping the NB volts up to 1.45 (real)

May take considerably more NB voltage then that. If a tRD is valid depends not only on the divider and FSB but also the CAS value.

Which slots are you running the 4850's in? (1-2, 1-3 or 2-3)

Thought of buying UT T2R soon, so which combination of GFX would be the best?
3 x 4850 or 2 x 4870?

you should get 2 4780s 3x crossfire drivers need work.

well ive left all the settings to auto/default ive only changed the following

T2 Despatch = Enabled
timings are 5-5-5-15
Performance Level 7 with all phase shifts enabled
everything else left on auto

ram is corsair dominator 2x1GB 8500 (PSC chips) @ 2.12v (real)
i got some ballistix 8500 D9GMH but the heatspeaders are coming off and wont use till ive got it sorted (think i will have more luck with them?)

what kind of NB voltage you reckon i should use for safe 24/7 use to get it stable?
1.55(real) or more?
will i need to adjust VTT

d9gmh can go lower trd
1.55 is too much for 400fsb but safe
try using 333/800 strap if ya can
try dropin multi n see if you can go higher fsb

ive gone up to 450x8 with this q6600 on this board

didnt test for stablity tho only did a quick everest run didnt try any higher as i will be happy whit 400x9

do you think i should just be stick with a trd of 7 instead of 6
system is rock stable at 7 and im so tired trying to get this stable at trd 6
(been at it for a 4 days)

apart from synthetic tests like everest am i likely to notice any performance increases in real world use like Megui encoding and gaming

high fsb you will notice

500x8 would kick ass even 500x7 is nice

@ 500 you can do pl8+eaeee eaaee pull = 7 1.6v nb

[Shalamay]

ok, i got my e8500@4.5ghz with 1.4v and nb@1.6, but I cant get it completely stable. If i turn it on or restart is will start and crash and start and crash and boot on the third time. Once its on, it is stable and i cant get it to crash. Any ideas? Thanks.

play with gtl settings

[Shalamay]

which way? what do they do? whats a decent oc for an e8500 with a safe (whats safe) voltage? thanks zsamz.

i wouldnt go over 1.45v for 24/7 maybe i would lol since i average 1-2 cpus a year
personnally i be aiming around 4.2-4.5ghz for 24/7 500x9 or 540x8
but on regular surfin days i'd keep it @ 500x8=4.0ghz

think its worth getting some enzotech vga ram sinks for the CPL chips i already got a 60mm fan blowing on the end of the flame freezer

my pwm temps at load is around 66c

damn thats hot i never seen it over 38c
i already got a sink on mine n my cpl temps are @ 32-35c"measured with lasergun"

Hi guys ive just installed hte new intel 8.2.0.1001 raid drivers and when i ran hdtune it looked like this.

Does it look normal as it look`s way different to the last time i ran it.

I never bothered running any HD tests with my X48 board as its basically the same board & controller as my P35 but for some sort of comparison I just run the below test for you.

My setup is / DFI LP UT P35, 7.8.... Intel Drivers On ICH9R, 2 X 80GB Hitachi's, RAID 0, 50GB OS Slice, Vista 32 Bit, Write back cache enabled.

The below test was done on mucky drives on my 24/7 rig. I would expect slightly better performance once cleaned up & defragged etc.

How well does this board handle 4 sticks of memory? I have the ability to get 4 sticks of DDR2 1000 but that would require me to push the board to 500. Will them memory controller give me the finger with 4 sticks?

4 sticks is easy on the board i can do 500fsb n ram runnin @1200 just needs more nb volts1.55-1.65

if I just want to run my Q6600 at 3.6-3.8ghz and x-fire 4870's should I go for the X48 or X38?

for a few Xtra $$ get the x48

Running in 1 and 2

[emoners]

Running in 1 and 2

will there be a problem if CF would be done on slots 1 & 3 or 2 & 3?

[zanzabar]

on the UT slots 2/3 are pci-e2 16x slot 1 is 1x and 4 is 16x 4x electrical, so 1/2 wouldent work

and 2/3 will give much better performance than 2/4 or 3/4

so CF only works on these slots?

i've got one of these boards coming 2morrow, alot to read up on here. im waiting for the 4870x2's to come out so i can set up crossfirex but untill then i'll be using my 9800gtx and a 7900gt so i can run my 4 monitors, will i need to use both of the FDD power connectors next to the pci-e slots?

yes you must use the fdd power connectors when using 2 v-cards
