+1

For overclocker stock settings don`t mean a damn thing.

Fitseries3 · Nov 17, 2008, 06:28 PM

tigger · Nov 17, 2008, 06:31 PM

I need to look through my dictionary for a deffinition of wait. LOL! Changed my mind, wanted it now. Finding over $300 bux in your room helps a bit to.

@fits

and again

you must be joking!!!

this post is like THE MAGNET POST... and you guys have just begun!

Fitseries3 · Nov 17, 2008, 06:59 PM

all my threads usually grow pretty fast.

me and dark are hoping to get some sick OCs on the asus boards here pretty quick.

im hoping to see some of the other boards show up soon.

dark2099 · Nov 17, 2008, 07:00 PM

So in an act of foolishness I decided to overnight myself that LGA 1366 backplate that Paulie found from the CM store. Grand total $59 bux. Today was an expensive day.

All the i7 talk will mean something lol.....

I love how the new chips are not frozen temp locked!!!!

erocker · Nov 17, 2008, 07:04 PM

It looks like the RAM I want is going to set me back the furthest. I too want to know how the MSI board works considering it's the least expensive of the bunch right now.

dark2099 · Nov 17, 2008, 07:06 PM

Fitseries3 · Nov 17, 2008, 07:07 PM

a note to everyone.....

every single ddr3 stick i have has booted in this board no problem. you dont have to be very picky what set you get.

Wile E · Nov 17, 2008, 07:09 PM

giorgos has the GB UD5 board. Somebody should pm him this thread.

The GB board or the Revolution are the 2 I have my eyes set on right now.

dark2099 · Nov 17, 2008, 07:13 PM

1.275V set in BIOS, resat the HS with MX-2, temps at stock settings didn't change any really. Load temps in a minute.

Solaris17 · Nov 17, 2008, 07:27 PM

I might get the EVGA board but probably the MSI platinum i want the eclipse but if morgith is getting it theirs really no need to compair but it would be intresting to see the eclipse vs's the lower platinum

For the cost of that board it should make toast and give backrubs too!

I see your point though, I've never really been let down by Asus boards, perhaps I should save a little more and get it.

Fitseries3 · Nov 17, 2008, 07:33 PM

another note......

NB is cold as ice. i dont think anyone will need to worry about cooling anything other than CPU on these setups.

What about this "must be a tri channel kit" crap that was being said before..

I doubt its true but figured its worth the check.

I kinda figured that. No IMC goes a long way to reducing temps. All these elaborate NB coolers are just there to make people feel at ease, because they are used to 775 chipsets actually needing the extra cooling.
