**Official DFI LanParty UT X48-T2R(and LT) Discussion

[Shiranui Gen-An]

try the phases with e-a-e-e-e/e-a-a-e-e on pl8

thats the jams with that board it performs close to pl7

Already did, see post 2748

[mikeyakame]

Flashed my LT with UT bios, works like a charm. I'll do bit for bit compare between ADC24 for LT and CDC24 for UT see if they are the same.

Either way LT bios can be flashed on UT board, and vice versa with awdflash ms-dos tool from USB.

Yoh guys,
I am planing to buy a LANPARTY UT X48-T2R or a DFI P45-T2 RS plus.
Mikeyakame was so kind to recommand me the P45-T2 RS plus because I would like to oc my G.Skills F2 9600.
I heard that the DFI P45-T2 RS is having some serious problems with the Be Quiet PSU because of the 4-Phase Digital PWM.
As you see in my signature do I have a BQ Dark Power Pro 850W.
Would you say I should better buy a new psu for my purpose?
Is there a big difference in the perfomance between a UT X48 compared to a P45-T2 RS plus?

[Fritz_the_germ]

Thank you for your reply!
What is about the psu?
Do you think I can try it with the BQ Dark Power Pro7?

I don't have anywhere near as much experience as some of you, but now that I've tried it I will recommend the X48 T2RSB Plus.....

I haven't had one problem with it at all...

Always resets nicely..

Highly stable

And relatively cool compared to the Rampage Formula (my other one)

I 've only had it a month, but I haven't encountered any of the problems they seemed to be constantly ing about on Newegg and other sites....

Very good

now I just have to figure out how to set up a network....

[zsamz_]

the X48 T2RSB Plus is a better for higher fsb
they fixed what they messed up with on the ut lt x48
now i just wished they would fix the bios to clock my e8600 higher than 520fsb
i can do 550fsb stable with my e6850 lol
i just wished they reduced the ut p45 price in canada 250$ is way too much
i'd get a udp3 but odds are i'd get a lemon board than would die in a week

[Gameman]

do you mean ud3p the fancy high overclocker by Gigabyte Technologies????

I was curious about that one too.... could I get a higher stable overclock with my other E8600??? other than 4.5 at 1.40vcore????? Or is it more to do with the batch of the chip I was fortunate or unfortunate enough to get?????

I noticed at newegg here in Canada the LT x48 is the same or sometimes cheaper than the T2RSB Plus and the T2RS occasionally on their sales???

I was considering the LT X48 for a THIRD build.....would it be equivilant to the T2RSB I got or a step down :in fsb overclockability?????

Just curious...

Thanks folks

@ gigabut fancy high overclocker
i'll just wait till its on sale again or we canadians dont get hamered on the price its 150us$ @ motherboardpro should be 190can$ max

to be quite honest x48 is a waste considering the ut p45 is faster and can do 8x8 crossfire if needed

[Gameman]

but you are referring to the ud3p????? am I right???

Would you personally recommend it for a build or would DFI be better....?????

Thanks

Thanks

i had too many gigabut boards die on me
i seen many ud3p boards in the forums die in weeks
i was thinkin of gettin one for fun but with my luck it woulda died in a week lol
i would rather pay the xtra $$ n get the ut p45 its so much faster than anything out there
if the ud3p didnt suk so much in memory bandwidth i woulda risked it lol n bought it localy so i could rma it every month

[Gameman]

guess i didn't read enough

I was under the impression that it was a good board....


sorry for the mix up....

thanks

i so wished i got the ut p45 when ncix had em on sale @ 200$
the ud3p is good for alot considering its a great seller for the price its doin good with high fsb quads
i been abusin my dfi boards for over a year n they keep takin it
i was averagin 1 gigabut board rma every 5 weeks before i went dfi i even had a gigabut board just die @ stock after a few weeks lol
i just wanna break 13k in everest so i need the ut p45 to do it
i broke 12k with ut p35 i havent seen no ddr2 gigabut board break 12k they have tough time gettin to 11k

i shoulda bought the black ops like zanzabar when newegg had em @ 175can$ in daily sale

[exemay]

Ok, so the time has come for me to strip out my LC stuff, re-do the loops and put some new piping in thre!

Up until now ive only been wcing my GPU and CPU, so i was wondering what the best NB and SB blocks are, and mosfet.....if there is one avaliable, but i cant see u can fit anything on there!!

i appreciate its probs not nescicary to lc the SB or mosfets, but i want to!! im addicted haha

many thanks

exe!


EDIT: im not using dual GPU's so size of the SB block isnt really a bother to me...also are there any FC blocks??

[Shiranui Gen-An]

The LT X48 is only $139.99 at NewEgg.

thx

[johnysb]

which is the best bios for x48 dk t2rs (c2d 8400 2x2gb ram)?

[johnysb]

has anyone tried the latest bios 2009-05-04?

[RGone]

Yes I have seen a few that swear by that board and not at it. Seems to work like the DK P45-T2RS PLUS board and that for me was good.

I don't have anywhere near as much experience as some of you, but now that I've tried it I will recommend the X48 T2RSB Plus.....

i will still be playin with my dfi boards as my backup pcs

[PacoL250]

Hey all, I just got my PC going with the UT X48-T2R which I had purchased about 4 months ago but in moving to a job and apartment, I never had the time to get my PC built. Finally I've done it and I want to definitely start to OC a bit. I have only done a little bit of OCing a long time ago on AMD's Athlon 64 X2s, and right now my X48-T2R is coupled with a QX9650 CPU.

However, after hearing about DFI's ABS (Auto Boost System) utility, I wanted to give that a try. I downloaded it from their website, but everytime I go to install it, it tells me I need to have .NET Framework 2.0 before running it. Also when I run the program, no information about my system even shows up and the ABS Profile I downloaded from DFI's site apparently doesn't match to what I have installed. I have .NET Framework 3.5 and the other versions have been installed in the past as well.

So is the version of ABS from their website broken or what? Has anybody successfully used the ABS utility?

Thanks!
