ASUS Maximus II Formula - new P45 king?

[Kayso]

How about 3dmark06?What score do u have?

Here is your result and a shot:


btw. How do you manage to start your Corsairs at 1100 Mhz ? Any advices ? And how do you keep DRAM Static Read Control, DRAM Read Training and MEM. OC Charger, because when I put sumething else than Auto, always end with a blue screen ?!?

Water cooling is one of those things were benefit of having one is nowhere near of risk / cost / effort put into it (for me ofc - chicken )

I relay prefer to buy cherry picked CPU and play with it then play with OC then play with WC and eventually loose - most important time on setting up machine and OC rather then even money itself - i just dont have time anymore to waste.

BTW for ppl who has random reboots. In the end cause for them was SB voltage, which one exactly I dont know i bumped both to 1.2 and 1.55 following advice of Simps as I run both PCI higher then 100 and got 4HDDs and a lot of stuff connected to MB.

About my connection issue it looks like it was crapy version of downloader - installed new version and problems seems to be gone.

This weekend I will try go higher then my sig as CPU can do it easily - mobo is holding me back.

Don't know, I didn't tested. I will and post screens.

What version of those Dominators u got? u will have it on sticker on HS.

If 1.x then they should clock easily If 2.x then your current clock might be your reality (at least this is what i read about them - no personal experience as I got 1.x).

Anyway you can up voltage on them for 1100 to 2.1+ (mine are working 2.15 as in singature - but passing test no problem 1160 PL8 on same settings - did not try higher)

You might need to adjust NBGtl ref or bumb NG voltage to do PL8 - just a thought (but on your cloks it seems that you have more then enough juce on NB tho I would try NBGTL ref)

You can find my settings for RAM (which are copy of some Grnfinger's settings for ram in the thread just look for my posts)

I'm with v 1.1, so you say they have to be good. I will do some more test, but they can't boot at PL8 at all, neither on PL9

ATM are in in stock speed,cause I was away from home for a few days.
best score i ve ever had with my rig:
(and that why I want 8x500 setup,so maybe I could do better score)

17001 is not bad score for this card,right?

Huh, and you call this stock ???
GPU: 792, Memory: 1063 LOLL, nice overclock

A made some tests with
8*450 with memory on 1080, like in my signature:

and 8*480, with memory 960 Mhz, PL10, both stronger:

144 points for 30Mhz FSB more, I didn't expect it

Here's the tumbler grasping onto the NB heatsink

Nice! I will try it and share some results. Because after washer mod, change of thermal paste and everything what is written in forums to lower NB temperatures, mine goes about 55-58 and nothing less.
