Weird thing is with the 950's we cannot get the OCZ Blades anywhere near stable above 900mhz, while we benched with the 3540 around 1100Mhz dead easy.... Rams are still okay as they perform on S775 and P55 platform...
    could it be different cpu multipliers used?

    All 23X Multi used Sir Shamino. Gamer, BLind Ripper and Massman topped all at 230Bclock with the Xeon and 950 CPU's... With the 950's the OCZ BLades were not as stable as with the W3540 CPU... One has a weaker IMC but Blind's one is pretty good... I will drag Massman in here
    Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved

    Remark : They call me Pro Asus Saaya yupp, I agree

    When testing the chip of Blind a couple of weeks ago I could hit 240+ easy with 21x multiplier, so the board's capable of doing more than the low 230MHz. At 23x all three chips maxed out completely at around 233MHz, suicide, and 228MHz benchable.

    I have a couple of links to scores:

    - Blind's 950: pifast at 228MHz BCLK, 1100+ memory
    - Gamer's 3540: pifast at 229MHz BCLK, 1100+ memory
    - My 950: pifast at 232MHz, 929MHz memory

    Max suicide is about 233MHz BCLK. Don't think I've ever seen 234MHz with the 23x multiplier on this board.

    Btw, regarding Blades: only issues I've seen so far I already mentioned in PM. First two results are with the Blades and we had no issues running them. Blind had the same problems I already mentioned after this LN2 session; I already tested the kit on other boards and the kit is fully functional. Btw, I can actually get the blades running; all I have to do is manually adjust the timings/voltage with another memory kit, shut down and change to blades. As long as I don't clear the CMOS it runs just fine at 1150MHz CL8.
    Where courage, motivation and ignorance meet, a persistent idiot awakens.

    all 950 runs 23x without turbo very well(230-+),but my question is for the psu if the mobo runs high bclk stable with the 2 (8 pin )?because i have one 6 pin to my psu and one 8 pin.i ask my friend hipro and tell me that is no problem'
    your opinion?
