Let's start some tests on Wather cooling


Max stable Bclock

[giorgioprimo]

Flashed the new 0609 BIOS it seems to improove the RAM OC ability

wow great preview giorgioprimo very useful and detailed

[1200W]

Very nice preview giorgioprimo

[giorgioprimo]

i wil update soon with some more air cooling test ad even with some more "serious"

[ZillaPct]

a question? to use Nforce200 on P55
which is really the sense to mount this chip on P55?

The line of PCIE on the CPU are only 16 line, this chip double the external line on more line to pciex, but the line a mount of this chip are ever 16. Cpu line is bottleneck, this chip for me on P55 not have sense.

and if it use this only to replicate a pciex ports is ok, but for performance is very funny

very nice forum review/preview massimo! very organized, love the pics and bios shots
looks like asus is back
at least marketing wise hehe

but this is a workstation board, where is rog?

[RADCOM]

Very nice overclocks, what kind of temps are you hitting and are those speeds prime/OCCT stable?

[KURTZ]

just wondering: this m/b has lotes or foxconn? i saw in the net that this mounts the lotes ...

I think it is realted to have a full x16 slots wile you cna use some other slots for different poupose ( controller, pci ex SSD, ecc.ec.)

I didn't really check, sorry

Nice show guys, I'm little busy with some other stuff now, but i'll post some new tests soon ........

[giorgioprimo]

Updated post n°3 with new BIOS test

[Marco André]

giorgioprimo, nice testings and bios pics can you tell me how many times did you use the overvoltage switches during your tests?

frankly speaing, I alwayse leave them on the "unlock" position ...........
