aahhh... im not sure
it did 384 htt with my a64 and up to 1900ht....so far it was cheap,but overclocked well.

the problem with the 955 is: lacking support. the strongest proc supported is a 945 ES.
the Bios detects the Processor Model 100% correctly, but not its settings. NB and Multi are at 4x all the time, as soon as i enable the custom p-states, the board wont post until i clear the cosmos
with overdrive, i can clock it up,thats all, i can change timings and the ht divider but the nb divider never appears,nor the !3! voltage rgulators work, in bios i only have acess to Chipset voltage,CPU overvolt and ht volt. my crucial ballistix, that work flawlessly in the same board with another proc, wont work with the 955, only the dominators do (even though they clock well and time like shit)

EDIT: enabling ACC produces the same error as enabling the p-states

the proc runs 40 hours stable now on 3.87 1.44, but i cant get more without facing a Realtek BSOD after 10hours+

Just reading "don't stop" triggered Michael Jackson to play in my head XD

That's my intention dude although I'm already thinking of selling the thing so I can go travelling ( When its all done of course)

Could you post some tips about water cooling on my build thread ? All I know so far is that I want a 360mm rad XD

Yeah, I like it, it's almost silent, about the size of a toaster, and very fast. And it even has room for full-size video cards such as the GTS 250, or GTX 260 with a little bit of work and power supply permitting.

The system i built my uncle was a nice small passive system. The Silverstone Sug 4 is able to even fit a 280 in there. Just have to make sure if you go that route that you get a full modular psu.. I can't wait for teh DFI's AMD Blood Iron to get on the market so I can grab it and make a small monster for myself.

my pc now im at uni, supprisignly i get great temps under there an the hot pipe for the radiator is there to :P

[pantherx12]

Great looking speakers man!

what are they?

What amp is that also?

[ste2425]

haha cheers man that is a very very old pioneer set. I has a seperate vynl player, radio reciever and tape deck that get powered by the actual amp too. The model number on it says SA-520. i got them of my uncle and am loving it the bass makes your chest rumble in the flat downstairs lol, great at party's these :P

[pantherx12]

I used to have a set of Chinese OEM speakers that were chest rumblers, sold them though as I needed the pennies and one of my friends had always wanted a set but all stock has gone.

30 inch tall or something crazy.

[ste2425]

haha sounds great, i love the sound quality of speakers like that id take up a set like this then a surround sound you see everyone with any day

[Fitseries3]

just took my pc out of my ft01 so i could sell it.

bench/toy rig on the left and main/net rig on the right

[Chicken Patty]

that is indeed a lovely setup


I've kinda lost the passion for cases lately. Sucks cuz I have to pretty bad ass cases laying around now

[Fitseries3]

im trying to get a lian li pc-x500 for my main rig.

its small as hell but still holds plenty of hardware.

im also selling my main rig to build a p55 setup.

i'll soon be running a gb p55 ud4p + i5 750 + 4gb blue tracers in main rig with a different psu.

[PP Mguire]

Once i get some more black zip ties i can clean it up a bit more.

[mlee49]

Did you use Erocker's advice and Velcro the SSD to the case?

[PP Mguire]

Nah, look at picture 3. You can see where i screwed it to the case.

[ste2425]

dude thats some good cm there. have you extended cables? im just wonderin wat all them extra 'electronic bits' are lol

[PP Mguire]

Its a power distro. One molex for 6 case fans. Just look at where all the power cables go and you can see how it works well. CM will be better once i get around to it with the neccesary materials.

regarding this problem,it seems,only the time can help me, maybe another board

this is one of the reasons, i stopped to believe im professional, which was a big hit for me

I think it is infact the board

I think it IS the board. I know my board hates voltage being much over 1.4v on a quad or 1.56v on a dual. So maybe it is time to get a better board or see if you can rig something to cool the power phase (mosfets,caps,coils,chokes) that helped stability on mine alot for high voltage suicide runs

i have sticked an old halfed chipset+mosfet cooler (mosfet part,copper,very thin ;-)) on top of all mosfets, the coils,chokes etc are cooled by several case fans... board temperature seems fine even under 48 hours load, it never exceeded 24 degrees. if the mosfets overheat, you will recognize that, from the fact, that everything is cool, except the mainboard sensor. had that prob with the old ramsinks i used. yeah, i planned an am3 board either.... my dominators suck major donkey balls on everything beside clocking stable at 1250 with 6-6-6-18-26 timing. i will try ddr3, i think :-)

maybe it is just the board uses cheap components in its power phase and can't handle it.That is why i so badly want this board to be out of my main rig and into a 24/7 cruncher.
