P5B-Deluxe...

[VL125]

Jepp, P5B Deluxe might be the best Board for an Allendale, a P5W isn´t bad but it won´t be easy to run FSB 500+

Thanks to my buddy New-b i can clockgen past 400 Mhz FSB.

This is all 1066 strap Badaxe 1.72v vMCH, ram 4/4/4/12 1:1 good stuff.

6600 ES-5 B1 @ 3.77 Ghz small FFTs stable, 1.45v in bios




3.84 Ghz stable with 1.50v in bios
That's 1.465v actual!

[RDTS]

I'm running at cpu60c/sys55c at 3360 mhz (9x420) My sys temps used to be 45c but then I tried to check my NB heatsink and busted the plastic pins holding it on. I reattached by using artic silver thermal epoxy and then put a 50mm fan on top of it. My question: Is Sys temp same as NB temp?

So does anybody know if sys temp is actually NB temp?
How do you post screen shots?
Thanks

P5W is the best board for Conroe

Which is the best week generally for the E6600?

[m0da]

27/28... but it all depends on luck. some 27/28 just suck
my 28 isnt bad

Large FFTs are even easier. Coretemp reports higher load temps with small FFTs so I run small more often. I can run large later tonight.
But TBH i'm having trouble with long term stability with > 410 FSB. It will run up to 440, semi stable up to 424, but if i let it run for a long time it gets reboots.

same thing happened with my ES6700 b1

Just set up the Asus P5W DH Deluxe, E6600, Corsair 2 gig ram, 7600GS video. When I run 1.36 of CPU-Z, under CLOCKS it only shows Multiplier value. The core speed, Bus Speed, and Rated FSB are BLANK. I used the Asus AI to adjust overclocking to 30%, which it did without any problems. So why don't values show up with CPU-Z?

P5W Deluxe.

[Dublin_Gunner]

P5W Deluxe.

????? What week is that? j/k

it appears the mid 20's are giving good results, across all models

[Capo Crimini]

My week 24 sucks ... or the Scythe cooler is sh*t. Either way it's tempting to buy a TTBT and see how that performs on my chip.

[VL125]

who want something to laugh?

Ive tested 7 Boards in the last 3 weeks....

lol 7??? Didnt like any of them then?!

[JoeBar]

OC'ing is a hit and miss story. None can guarantee u anything...

[VL125]

I´ve tested 4 P5W DH, one was killed....-.-, 1x Dq6 and a DFI i975X and in the next days a P5B Deluxe Wifi will arrive.

Sry for my English, i hope you understand what i mean..i hate the german language...

you can call me a sick bastard, but i think i have to go to a psychologist...

Relax.
We won't blame you for being a hardware-junkie.
Won't we?

Ive heard that the newer the week of ur conroe cpu is the better they clock.. I read this on a forum somewhere.. Can anyone of you guys tell me whats true about this? Since i got a week 29 it would be cool tho..

Regards

[snips]

At these settings my 1rst core fails Prime and orthos while second is fine...
