My ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer is here...

[Woody-san]

Wow..... 1.55v with the stock cooler??
Do I smell burnt CPU

Ha ha that run wasn't on the stock HSF...

Hi guys, very interested in this board. But I don't want to have to shell out for another case - will it fit in my coolermaster atcs 840 case? I've been following this thread for a while, and know someone is running that config. Does the extra inch on the bottom fit on the slide out motherboard tray, or did it require some modding to get it in? This is the only thing stopping me from pulling the trigger on this. Thanks.

Your ATCS 840 Case is compatible with: ATX, microATX, Extended ATX.
The dimensions on the Supercomputer motherboard is 30.5 cm x 26.9 cm, and the form factor on it is: SSI CEB. Unfortunately i do not believe that it will fit your case. My self i got an tj07, and i got the same problem there(SSI CEB). If somone know if the standards on this two cases can hold the supercomputer, let me know! tnx

tj07 supports the SSI standart according to the official site:

I know. But have been told that the supercomputer-mobo do not fit?!?. What does CEB stans for? Is that annother format? SSI? hehe:P This is not my head''disciplines''but does not hurt to ask if anyone has etn sensible answers on this one..

[crashmax]

Before my P6T7 WS I had the ASUS Rampage II Extreme. Both MB have exactly the same size and mounting holes.

[kgk]

It has the exact same mounting holes as a normal ATX board. The CEB spec just allows them to build it slightly wider.

[MongGrel]

Yes, the holes are the same, I had to reroute a few cables a bit to get mine in an Antec 1200, the passthrough slots are a bit tight at the end of the MOBO.

I managed to frig up a P6T V2, I won't go into it heh, but got one of these open box off the egg for $319 and really like it so far.

When they say might not come with everything listed they weren't kidding, I got the MOBO only, but I can live with that

The board is about an inch longer than my ATX was, on the width.

Need to edit my siggy I guess

[Dawgneck]

Nice system, nge769.

I see you are running a 975. Sweet.

I just purchased this board and a I7 920 D0. These will be placed in a Lian Li V2000 Plus case.

I want to overclock the 920 (hoping for 4ghz).

Can those of you who are using this board with a 920 tell us what speeds you are getting? Can you share your settings? Anyone using the Prolimatech Megahalems? Anyone watercooling? If so, have you found a mobo chipset block?

Thanks in advance.

[Dawgneck]

Anyone?

The upper limit for the BCLK on the P6T7 seems to be around 210-220 so 4Ghz seems easily doable with a 920. Read through the thread to see the BIOS pics and configs people posted.

People are using both air and water.

There is no P6T7 chipset block yet although Duniek is apparently working on one. EK waterblocks would like to make one but availability of the board is scarce where Eddy is.

Thanks man and welcome.. This board is still running flawlessly for me ,I haven't been around lately,I'm back now though.

Try the 402 bios,you can find it somewhere in this thread,it fixed the sleep issue for me,also put a memory fan on, its the best way to cool your nb/sb.

[crashmax]

So,

have done some HT-on overclocking with this Mobo and my new 950 and here are the results.



And test some more...

[Dawgneck]

Thanks, everyone.

I feel better about my purchase (debated between this and the P6T6 - and I was a little anxious after reading about the new Classified 4-way SLI).

Guess I'll get the Prolimatech cooler, Enermax 1250 and some Corsair memory chips and cooler.

Nice results, crashmax.

I sure would love to see the settings of anyone who overclocked their 920 and P6T7 to 4ghz.

Thanks again.

[kgk]

The Classified 4-way would be more appealing if they hadn't gone with the XL-ATX form factor. That kills it in my book. It severely limits your case options with no discernible benefit.

The P6T7 needs a waterblock badly though.

[KingOfsorroW]

We have a new official bios #0305 btw:

Hmmm,nice results.Do you like your 950 more?Seems like a strong chip.

[MongGrel]

A non throttling bios on these would still be nice

I offered to send EK (spoke with Gregor I believe) a copy of the board in exchange for EK's involvement in producing the board water block as well as perhaps a free copy of it when one came out (after all it was a $450.00+ board at the time). I was declined or maybe misinterpreted.

... Duniek agreed though.

I have tj07 and want to test the p6t7 MB

[Rubycon]

Max baseclock varies by board wildly! Out of two P6T7s the first one was a dud - could not even do 200 without failing to POST!

The second one will hit 211 before it starts getting flaky. 216 is about the limit with cranking voltages and I still cannot get it stable.

C'mon Asus and give us a GD BIOS that allows us to COMPLETELY disable this turbo throttling!

Last time I talked to Juan Jose, the Asus rep, he asked me what board should be next for a special bios and my reply was the Asus P6T7 WS. That was quite a while ago now and I haven't heard anything since. It took forever to get any feedback posted on the P6T6 website so maybe they have decided that this is not important or maybe they are just too busy working on their P55 boards.

I liked your quote so much that I just sent him an e-mail directly to remind him and let JJ know that there are still some Asus P6T users that are not happy with not having an option or special bios to disable turbo throttling.

If I ever hear back from them I'll let you know.

Hi there,
There's a new bios in the asus ftp directory, 0406 dated 10/26/2009;

ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/mb/so...-ASUS-0406.rar

(I can't say much about it now, but I had a hell of a job to get my ocz 250 turbo ssd running on this board with bios 0402 and previous versions).

P6T7WSSC, 975, 12gb ocz 1600 gold, 2x asus gtx 295, 2x raptor 300, ocz 250 turbo ssd, creative xfi, sony bluray, sony dvd/rw, 1250w coolermaster, corsair h50 push/pull fans.

[xaxis]

So, does it fit in the tj07 case?

I have tj07 and want to test the p6t7 MB

Yes, 100% certain. I can take some photos for proof if you're really nervous about your buying decision if you want. Just wiki CEB.. It's only difference from ATX is its width I believe, it's not as though screw holes will be unaligned.

Regards.

Throttling is still present. (No surprise there!)
See another option under fan control called ultra silence.
My uncore overclocks seem to be far less. Had to set to AUTO just to get POST...

Still need the option to turn off the silly turbo throttle!

Was excited at first as it does allow me to set the multi to 21 (W3520) but as soon as I fire up Linpack the multi drops right to 20X.
