I've seen "Dumo" post that 57x and up (provided the chip is capable) seems to require some kind of "cold" cooling for benching purposes so I'd be interested to know if the chip can bench 56x on water and or if you can get into windows at 57x? What is the max multi for the chip with PLL overide disabled? I also think you are going to like the MIVE. I'll look forward to more results from your new combo.

btw new bios sux 1902

my USB ports dont work, and stable benches gone...maybe its me but 1850 its a keeper

one thing i dont like is that all area around CPU gets hot that doesnt happen on the UD7, while benching i mean

cheers
Sergio

[andressergio]

it would be very nice if ASUS can update efi BIOS on the profile OC saves...that one can save settings to a flash drive and also selecting the profile not the way that is now putting 1, 2 or 3

cheers

i just wanna see andre post in gigabut thread that the ud7 suks compare to the MIVE

He will for sure,but Asus USB sucks......

[zsamz_]

He will for sure,but Asus USB sucks......

asus boards just hate some mouses

had a problem with mx518 on sabertooth until i used ps2

asus n cheap mouses

[andressergio]

He,he Sergio don't post all bad things about ASUS!

i will for sure still couldnt get pass 101 bclk on the mive while my asus do 107 lol but i have to admit that this board is fantastic, regulation is awesome and boots 2 times faster than my UD7 so fast man cant believe it

love both boards either way i got a good UD7

cheers mate
Sergio

[andressergio]

i just wanna see andre post in gigabut thread that the ud7 suks compare to the MIVE

for sure i will do a nice face to face on them

for now what i see is

MIVE and UD7

amazing efi bios - normal bios
voltaje regulation amazing - using F3H i have no problems but UD7 takes way more volts
HS near CPU heats a lot - NOT ON UD7
boots like a ferrari - UD7 not its slow at post and boot
small increments of volts on all - UD7 has big jumps
just 1902 gave me problems - UD7 all but F3H

so far thats what i found for now

cheers
Sergio

good choice
i'm thinkin of givin my gene-z to my 9 year old son

for the price its perfection

[andressergio]

ok guys i will bother a lot as im new lol

tell me it tried my SLI of GTX580 on the NF200 and on native, well native takes my SAME OC i had on NF200 with more vgpu but SCORES MORE

this is on native (on native + NF200 takes 150+ points less)
slots 1 and 3 for me score better i think i heard this if u can confirm me will be awesome

testing the system

Awesome cpu and mive there Andre

Dunno about Z68, but with my B3 MIVE (old bios) maximum multi bios boot was 56X.

For 57X~59X I have to set turbos manually in bios to 57Xs

As long as boot posted past "AE" on post code reader then it good to go with multi you set in bios (same as "4E" on UD7)

cheers

Back on track now after switching from UD7 to MIVE , after reloading and all im happy . . even though this board is almost same with v core per oc , the llc control is much much better . . posting some shots of my 24/7 prime pass , so for meantime the v core looks high , but for 3d benching and memory benching all i need way less v core .
Was the switch worth it ? Hell Yea this is the 5 reason why I think " opinion "
1. Overall better support of board , bios updated regular
2. For me memory stability is better , board is way less stressed at 2133 cmd 1 , makes figuring a stable overclock a breeze
3. Run lower vcore idle cuase llc control is much better , no silly 1 - 10
4. pci express lanes have more space for multi gpu " no more hot crossfire sandwich " which ud7 sacrificed a space for a outdated legacy pci
5. rog overclocking from remote devices iphone android laptop , now i overclock while at work and i can reboot main pc from remote rog thru team viewer on bsod probelms
Bonus : Hot ass looking board red mania lol , lot of light's if thats your thing
