those of you looking, tried three mobos with the gx790 sb 750 combo- asus msi & biostar.
for what i do i need stability and i still favor biostar. the ta790gx 128m is a super stable and ive oc'd my 9850 to 3.1 stable boot and run on plain air with no problems anywhere.

but if budget was not an issue and i was building a clocker- id build a DFI. ive seen two that a friend of mine had and they are a cut above the rest.

just straight awesome boards, and well constructed boards, fiber not resin boards. theres a big difference, 95% of virtually all mobos are built on resin boards and wont take as much heat or BS.

the 780 and sb 700 combination runs hot- real hot for no good reason, and the drive handling is not as good - cant speak for any raid, cant run raid. make sure if you are going to run the 790gx that you also run the sb750. cant remember who posted that besides me but ill back it up.

nice build shadowfold

- ill be watching for more

And here's my wicked load temps, so awesome!

No time to clock the crap out of it today, tomorrow will be fun!

NICE!!!

Look forward to seeing some clocks tomorrow.

Congrats.

@shadow: If you have the funds, I would recommend the DFI 790FXb-M2RSH, this board is amazing, and the stock NB/Mosfet cooler is pretty good. Unless you want DDR3, but I still would recomment the DFI. (the M4A79 is awesome too though.)

Ill do a review on the Asus M4A79t DDR3 board in the next week or so before i do my dice run

Curious what chips are used on the OCZ Reaper 2x2GB DDR3-1333 kit. OCZ3RPR13334GK

D9JNL same as mine

fullinfusion · Apr 9, 2009, 11:51 PM

since the M3A79-T dont like 4x1gb 1066MHz sticks installed, I picked up 2x2gb OCZ 1066MHz Reapers.... anyone recommend how to burn these sticks in....? before i resort back to the 3.88GHz clock?

set the voltage to 2.2v and the clocks to 1200 5-5-5-15 and hope it boots back up

How's this looking? Was finally able to change my FSB from 200, my keyboard numbers were not working in the BIOS screens. Changed KB and works perfect. System hangs on boot with 250 FSB any suggestions?

Use the multiplier

blkhogan · Apr 9, 2009, 11:58 PM

Keep the FSB at 245 and bump the multi?

ShadowFold · Apr 9, 2009, 11:59 PM

Yea, why would you mess with the bus in the first place? Memory speed?

your on the border of needing more Vcore in my experience

250 x 14.5 = 3625 mhz i need 1.4-1.425 to get there.

For the most part yes. I can get 3.7GHz with a 200 FSB and uping the multi. Thought I would give a FSB oc a shot.

What i heard there was that power went out and messed up the server so the owner got a new one

ShadowFold · Apr 10, 2009, 01:18 AM

OKOKOKOK. I'm gonna go find my USB drive and downgrade my bios. If I get the 4th core, I can break 10k in 3dmark Vantage. I'm sitting at 9.8k right now.

SOO CLOSE!
Yea try 1.0 have you tried all other versions ?
1.0 seems a little to far back

ShadowFold · Apr 10, 2009, 01:30 AM

Nope just 1.6. The only bad thing I can see hapening with 1.0 is my overclock will suck. But I will only need like 3ghz for 10k. The cores make a huge difference.

Actually I will try 1.1
