nope....you should try it with your proc...try minimum multi...then using eleet or rog ....bump to max multi..you'll see stable clocks...try with stock bclk

Hmm very interesting. Who was it talking about more jitter at higher multi's? Oh well, that was probably true a couple years ago, but two years is an eternity in tech and I'm sure they have some way to smoothing that crap out. Hell we have 1200w PSU's that are 80 Plus Gold and have almost no ripple.

Gigabyte shows Sandy Bridge P67 motherboard

Quote:

4 PCIe slots for lot of SLI/CF

We managed to score some pictures of Gigabyte’s latest P67-based Sandy Bridge motherboard dubbed Gigabyte GA P67A-UD7.

The board is black, made with enthusiasts in mind and it comes with 24-phase power VRMs designed for dual power switching. It supports only Socket 1155 Sandy Bridge based CPUs and the board is based on the P67 chipset, Intel’s high end chipset for these CPUs.

It supports dual channel memory DDR3 of course as well as SATA 3.0. It does support USB 3.0 but via an external chip, as USB 3.0 is not supported in 6-series chipsets. Let’s not forget about the four PCIe slots for three-way SLI and three-way Crossfire that will come in handy to many graphics users.

The board also has two LAN ports, SPDIF, four external USBs that can power your devices, Optical out, and 5.1 analog connectors. This is what the board looks like.

God I need to start stashing some more cash for Sandybridge/hardware purchases next year. :broomstick:

Board looks shmexy, but might be a lil work insulating the socket. Can't wait for numbers from the chosen few.

Ready for some numbers too.

UD5 mobo here.

very sexy!

wanting one for socket 1366

+1

But the 24 phase sounds interesting

Anybody see external clock gens onboard which might unlock bclocking? I still want to see what shammy comes up with for sandy bridge.

from what I have heard, bclk isn't locked... it just craps out when pushed due to sata and pci-e onboard among other things... a multi or divider added to the limiting factors should allow good 'ole bclk fun to continue....

Shammy will def. figure it out for us ;)

Now the question is this.... will the external clockgens control sata/pcie or bclock? I'm sure it IS figured out or there would be no need for gigabyte to make a UD7 imo.
