+600mhz FSB Benchable With Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 & E8500

[Pt1t]

Tonight i have some fun with Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 & E8500 under my 2stages Cascade (~-103°).

First i m tested max fsb on a new E8500 i bought yesterday.

Motherboard isnt vmodded, and NB cooler is stock cooler.

Q809A655 , it takes 4ghz stable for only 1.2v under radbox.

And here is validation on max fsb on X48 chip ^^ , chip not supposed to go as high in fsb with Wolfdale



Bios parameters are easy

RAM 1:1 (2.00B) all in auto exept 8-8-8-18 and perf on extreme i forgot to change it...
CPU Skew control +150ps
Vcore 1.3v
vdimm +0.25v
vFSB +0.25v
VMCH + 0.4v

Some Pictures of the rig



dont look behind cooling , My wife got some work


After this i m testing some maxscreen and super pi 1M but >605mhz fsb system was very instable.

Max in 9.5 coef (Vcore 1.75v), i did 625*9.5 but corrupt ...


And super Pi 1M @ 605*9.5 (can be improve by tweak and if the board can take high fsb and other than 1:1, not tested yet)

I'm still testing it until some P45 Boards arrive

Crazy result for X48 chip there Thomas !!! Awesome !

[marcolecorse]

Damn Thomas, pulling some sick clocks from X48. You give me hope, now I must find an E8500

[marmott]

very impressive : Gigabyte made bigs improvements with the bios and the wolfdale cpu (564 MHz with the F4A bios and a e8500 when Florian76 test it)

did the tweaking of CPU clock skew help a lot ?

yes , a lot.

but just 150ps , no more , no less ...

[Westyle]

very nice results Pt1t
X48...very impressive

[metro.cl]

Not sure if it is a great mobo or chip but results are great keep pushing

np my buddy hope to meet you again soon!

[nachthymnen]

Really impressive!!!
Finally a good DDR3 mobo also for E8500?

[RyderOCZ]

Is it possible to get the F5a bios for this board?

Thanks

[kiwi]

Finally decent result for X48 + 45nm dualie I just hope you dont have golden MB and 600+ will become norm

What Memset performance level you have?

[jmax_oc]

Very nice to see high FSB on X38/X48. Good job
However, horrible Spi time ^^

[MARCO74]

Very nice FSB for X48 and really impressive chip..

[boblemagnifique]

Good Job my Poulette Belgian

[dinos22]

nice work mate

this is not the first 45m CPU that you had over 600+ mark with this board which is sweet

can you try F4 bios and see how you go?

Ryder i emailed gigabyte for the bios

[AndreYang]

I have f5a and f5c bios.
