what a wonderful boards...

according to you is the dfi x58 better than BloodRage???

**SAE** · 12-31-2008, 02:29 AM

Hmm, why should the DFI be better? Until there's no review comparing both, noone could tell.

**Ket** · 12-31-2008, 02:44 AM

I really, REALLY, don't like this board. Theres so many things I could pick apart about the PCB layout and choice of components I won't even bother.

Haha.. mister positive is posting here

I have never seen anything positive from you, so why you even post on this thread

Good bye!

lol. He doesn't either.

**Ozzfest05** · 12-31-2008, 06:45 AM

Yeah this is by far the hotest looking board out I would put my cpu in its socket any day ket must be blind

**subtle** · 12-31-2008, 10:02 AM

As far as physical appearance goes, I have to agree with Ket. The layout and colors used on this Bloodrage board are god awful ugly.

I thought the attraction to this board was based on its performance and options.

Were all the threads about people not being able to wait for this board to be released based on the fact that they liked the way the board looks, or does it offer certain things that the other X58 boards do not. I still haven't been able to figure that out.

Because red and black are just positively horrendous?

No kidding coming from someone who has a P5q deluxe and a first time poster who probably has something similar.

Everyone has their own taste

some people would rather have a bright yellow pcb and a layout to make your head spin, however my taste loves this board and so long as I like it and it performs great theres nothing else to say , good job Foxconn

I was referring more to the layout than the colors, but yes now that you mention it red/black is quite boring, dull, and lifeless.

My issues are more or less with the ridiculously stupid looking shield logo on the board itself.

i for one love the look of blood rage compare to other board especially the dfi one. but i don't like the layout on the blood rage, although it still should work for me since i won't do tri-sli

The question is: is the Blood Rage pwm as good as the Blood Iron pwm for air and water cooled systems. It would clearly be better (modifiable for high voltage) for extreme subzero systems.

**BenchZowner** · 12-31-2008, 04:35 PM

It's fine for every kind of use, extreme or regular.

**Tsaroth** · 12-31-2008, 06:33 PM

I'm sure there is some aerodynamic properties associated with that shield.....

or it's to keep Swords from damaging the SB.

I have no idea why you are comparing DFI Blood Iron to this motherboard

Blood Iron have 4 phase regular PWM and it's not good for any kind of use..

Bloodrage PWM is the strongest we have nowadays. I have no fans blowing air in to PWM parts and NB is watercooled. Temperatures never exceed +45c even when gaming or testing long periods. Hottest PWM spot on idle is +37c and it doesn't raise much from that. I use my high quality Laser pointer to measure temperatures. Motherboard can't give exact values.

**SF3D** · 01-01-2009, 03:29 AM

Here is the scores from this morning.

I tested this retail 965 CPU and it is a bit better than my own ES cpu's.

CPU is cooled by Thermalright Ultra Copper.
VGA's are cooled with Swiftech MCW60
NB is cooled by Bloodrages own NB block.

Room temp +24c

Here are the scores:

I will do some LN2 tests soon and I may have some surprise to you all

**Pt1t** · 01-01-2009, 04:23 AM

Nice

do you know Setfsb PLL to yse with this board ?

**BenchZowner** · 01-01-2009, 04:28 AM

Tried some, but none of them worked.

**Pt1t** · 01-01-2009, 04:34 AM

ok , i m installing vista but i see that Clockgenerator is the same as EVGA X58, ICS9LPRS139AKLF (EVGA X58 SLI)

edit :

quick 3dmark 2005 test All on air

**Pt1t** · 01-01-2009, 09:20 AM

I m still testing new setfsb , but it seems to work well with the BloodRage

Thanks Abo-san

**Nostromo** · 01-01-2009, 09:23 AM

Hey everyone,

I have a bloodrage on the way, My main concern is memory, I am running a 790i right now with mushkin PC3-8500 991601(996601) 2X2. It has SPD
settings for as low as 1.5V at 533 I am running it at 1840 with 1.9V
I was hoping to just get a third stick and put them in the bloodrage, or is this gonna be a no go?
