DOH! I knew I should have grabbed some 1156 gear instead of more x58.... :D
|
Man time for Hondacity to represent. Steponz too. Guess I better start buying Gigabyte gear from now on since they hold all the contest nowadays.

You're joking right? There's always MSI contests we cannot compete in.... :confused2: |
So how many loops of IBT one has to run?
|
I'm guessing just one... .
|
All I have is a H55 mb...not buying another just for this. :P

Guess that's pretty easy. I have a P55-UD6 might try to run i5@6.5ghz 1 IBT and blow the cpu :thumbsup: |
no need for ud7
ud6 has all the stuff for ln2...2x8segment leds and the phases.... 3 weeks left.... this will be a good competition....ram support for this motherboard is the best ....i wonder if gigabyte will be helping with bios updates...during this competition.... |

when i got the x58 xtreme hicookie only messaged a few people for some tweaks... way to go promoting a shitty product..which can't do high bclk...i remember paying 350$ for that shit...and yeah i sold it for 100$ to get it off of my inventory...
unlike shammy from evga....he's all out helping....i love shammy...thats man love! lol reasons why i won't join... after checking some infos 1. support from hicookie ...is lack luster. nuff said.... 2. anyways i studied the board...1.9v vcore max for cpu ..is a limiting factor...i won't even touch modding that mobo.. i wanna go all out on the superpi1m with an i670..but this won't be the motherboard.( even if hicookie got sub6 on this mobo...and thats what gigabyte is trying to market....)..evga is my primary choice here...and evga's coldbug mod is just awesome..works great. 24phase on all ud7 boards are ok..but lacks control compared to asus and evga's pwm circuits... 3. and the prizes are for non extreme users....poor selection of prizes...if they're expecting us to use liquid nitrogen they should have opted to prize winners with liquid nitrogen or extreme boards..and hardware... power supply is thermaltake? thats POS! why not gigabte odin power supplies? |
so do you need an 860 to get a good burn test score or is it non threaded
|
its multi threaded i believe..
|
damn f-that then lol I would grabbed a board but meh I hate 8** chips
|
remember when i gave you the m3e bios? it was that bad! lynfield is just sucky...
qpi (bloomfield) = dmi (lynfield) which is the sb....which is weird |
I have no problem running the UD6 I believe this i a better board then the UD6A(usb3) my only concern is the socket.
My board has the old cpu socket burner (FOXCONN) and I don't wanna burn my i5 670. |
