** Official ** Gigabyte UD3 P45 Series -- EP45-UD3 / EP45-UD3R / EP45-UD3P

I just love it, most for it´s so stable, consistent and easy to tune in, i have abused it a lot and it always recover when I try to do some insane OC runs.

OC duals up to FSB 600, if you want to go higher I think you need a board with better setup, RF is to coarse.

On the downside are the heatpipe/sink for the NB, it´s not good enough if you intend to push it, recommend to go with a 3rd party heatsink with a fan or waterblock.

If I had to chose a good DDR2 board today I had probably chose the EP45-UD3R/P, some what better in overall, what about downside, hmmmm, it´s a bit more sensitivit to tune in though but once you have it tuned in and learned how it works it really rocks, don´t have 16x/16x PCIe but I don´t think that matter that much.

Otherwise I think it´s some what better in overall.



@pangingIII

Nice 4x2GB result you got.

Is it with those Crucial value?



@radaja

Looks like you got your hand on a good E8400, nice.

Have you got a new job or are you still searching for one?

yep i think i got a good one indeed
and im working for an employment agency right now but the company i've been working for the last three weeks is going to hire me on full time
im going to try and get 9x500@4500 today,but my cooling might not be up to the task.i've got a 4500RPM fan mounted on top of the intel stock heatsink
and the airconditioner vent hose blowing directly down from above it.to be
able to do 1hr plus prime runs ill have to crank up the heat in the house to keep the airconditioner running full time(blowing the cold stuff)otherwise this chip will shoot up to 65c and beyond.and i dont like to go above 65C.
im hoping that i can get 4500 with less than 1.34v,otherwise i think ill have to wait till i get a new cpu cooler.but im gonna try

not bad at all.4470 w/1.31v FAILED ORTHOS after 25m


moving on.9x500@4500 w/1.32v . i think god finally granted me my very own golden cpu
