Im getting Phenom II X4 940 for sure. Ain't going to wait another month for AM3 really
Im a bit in a black hole though. There's not much to chose regarding motherboards for AM2+ right now and thus Im seriously considering to get a M3A79-T Deluxe because of the extra phases. On the otherhand Im thinking of just giving this 790FXB another try and making sure I get some better cooling on the MOSFETs.
However I cant find any after market MOSFET coolers which will fit on the DFI. I took a look on DFI's newest UT board for Intel, X58. If you look at the cooling etc on it, it's awesome. But I seriously dont see DFI releasing another AM2+ UT board. And if they plan to get an AM3 UT board, it will probably take so long to get it available that by then RD890 is out as well. DFI is always too late with releasing things
So at this point I think I might get that Asus board or just sit it out on the 790FXB untill/after RD890 and see if there's any good board out by then.
But then... If there's finally a good board Ill have to swap to an AM3 Phenom II CPU anyway... It's getting annoying now lol

Well, I was Priming overnight. I wake up the next morning and notice the PC was off, but with stanby LED etc on. This is weird since I cant even shut my PC off since it will always restart. And if a PC is unstable it either restarts or freezes up. So I turn it on again, notice lots of sparks and smoke. I take a look and notice MOSFETs blew upWhat problems were you having with the FXB?
Just asking as I also have a FXB but didnt see any problems, well not yet at least
Look forward to seeing the vids
Some people even got it on a system running at stock just starting a game etc. But I also read some people having that on the 790FX-M2R, which is seriously better regarding phases
But if you take a look at the MOSFET heatsink, well, if you take it off, you see that there's no thermal paste/tape. Just some sort of oil? The heat sink that's stock on the MOSFETs is higher and wider etc compared to the ones Im looking at, but the ones Im looking at are from copper with good thermal tape
But Im out of clues now anyway since I read that Phenom II will be faster for about 5% when it's using DDR3... This should mean it might be better after all to wait for that instead of getting AM2+ Phenom II... I hate this

ive seen this before myself, but as a rule of thumb, i allways take the heatsinks off now and have a look, and to apply some AS5.
the amount of times i have instaled a mobo, to then have to disasemble it to do this is just too many.
and the amount i have seen that are not even making contact with the fet's or northbridge is unreal
so yes, now i just take it off anyway, and reseat it properly
I've always been a bit afraid to do that, myself. Those motherboard makers are real sticklers on RMAs. All it would take is a little bit of AS5 left unnoticed during cleaning for them to reject your piece.
Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.
Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.
Rule 2:
When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.
Rule 2A:
When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.
Rule 3:
When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.
Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!
Random Tip o' the Whatever
You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.
acetone works wonders at cleaning thermal paste.

Lol, seems you have fun over there. I wish you ran CB10.
Also it would have been nice to see if prime95 and cpu-z are actually running or all this is just a background image.

Wow that was a nice video.
I wonder why the ht link is only 1800...that seems slow considering the current chips have 2000 normally.
I swore the htt/nb speed was supposed to be faster don't see why they'd make it slower.
It's not the default setting and is obviously user tuned.The NB clocks of Deneb should be 2.2Ghz(or north of it).
Watch the movie again and pay attention to CPU clock speed close to the end of it

Second that.. We would like to know if there is any truth to the other article about CB10 crapping out at certain frequency.

Thanks a lot for the video
@justapost:
Did you see the processor clock, changing from 3612.3 to .2 to .1 (as far as I remember there was a 3611.7 as well
I'm personally going for the GA-MA790GP-DS4H..Im getting Phenom II X4 940 for sure. Ain't going to wait another month for AM3 really
Im a bit in a black hole though. There's not much to chose regarding motherboards for AM2+ right now and thus Im seriously considering to get a M3A79-T Deluxe because of the extra phases.

But then... If there's finally a good board Ill have to swap to an AM3 Phenom II CPU anyway... It's getting annoying now lol
It's got AMD 790GX + SB750 Chipset and plenty of MOSFET-cooling. Consider this; It has worlds fastest onboard graphic's, the HD3300, and this is cooled by a heatsink connected to the MOSFETS. Now disable the onboard HD3300, and plug in whatever card you like in the x16 slot, and voila! One extra massive heatsink for you'r MOSFET's only
Besides.. this was actually the same board (and theres only 1 revision) that was used to clock the AM2+ PII to the amazing 6+ GHz
The board is quite cheap as well.
EDIT: Looks like this http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/...ProductID=2887

Thank you for posting the video link it great to see what the Undisclosed AMD processor can do THX !!
