It will definitely be nice to see some new competition, but let sbe honest if the cruddy cold bugs follow these I7 chips like the first revision, and also the poor scaling you may not see 6+ ghz that easy

i'm on single stage at the moment

Looking good so far dino

voltage?

[dinos22]

1.55v

i have a really nice 960 chip so now whatever i compare doesnt stack up but seriously this isnt too bad
i was thinking it might be worse even hahaha

[Kal-EL]

You still climbing bro or is this tops for ss?

[dinos22]

i am really tired > it's 3am heheh

here is a quick 32M single channel not tweaked obviously with higher RAM ratio



this is my last leftover stick from tripple channel kit elpida based that died on me

thought i'd test this ram first before i put my nice CAS7s in there

[punx223]

nice runs dinos... looks like it could be fun to play with.... let us know how the ram scales with the cpu.

Also how does it scale on water/air would be cool to know

[dinos22]

so i flashed to F4D bios and i can get turbo working with 22x but not lower multies which is ok i guess

here is what the board spits out in 32M SuperPi at 5GHz with stock timings with some Kingstons i have here

i am still on SS cooling

Nice!
