    Sup Enjoy
    AMD still fun after all.

    @ Chew...My first killing.... Giga DS4H
    Onboard video just went black screen. Probly better to use v. card when pushing all voltages. With Biostar NBv @ 1.5 I can go 2.9Ghz+ on NB freq.
    With DS4H its > 2.8Ghz with high NBv and NB Vid.

    DUMO, Board still work with a card?

    ballpark of volts and temps and clock speed of NB when it happened dumo? Haven't touched anything but dram and cpu volts for now.

    Which model biostar are you using? hows the PWM on it (temps). Price @ microcenter?

    Frontline,

    As for temps I'm controlling them at under 60C, chip becomes flaky after 58ish, holding them at 55C with various methods on air

    For reference this heatsink is horrid, runs about 20C hotter than my true. Using it to show even with poor air High Oc's can be acchieved, the stock HS is likely comparable.

    .
    Chew, out of the box it won't see my sata hd in all 6 ports, luckily I still have my old pata hd which is ok because I run PCI-e @ >110 with v card anyway.
    So, I knew from the start that the chipset will go bonkers sooner or later.

    Its Biostar 790GX AM2 @ microcenter.

    Got a new Giga board here.
    On air, started bios....




    I use easy tune to go higher then K10 stat to find which core that weak/strong.

    Nice stuff Dumo!

    I'm setting up the bench as we speak, and trying to take pictures along the way. Just got the DFI board on the tray and about to mount the TRUE.

    I would have have said when I get off my butt and finish DIY Pot but I can't say that now as I just finished after a freaking hectic day.( having OC withdrawals )

    Now I will use Enjoy as my excuse. When Enjoy gets off his butt and gets down here
