Hi all, still need to change my sig spec, but I have just assembled and istalled vista (again) on my new rig consisting of:

-ASUS Maximus formula special edition motherboard

-Tracer 8500's @ 1100 4/4/4/8

-Intel E2140 cpu 1.6GHz (stop gap till penryn)

-SupremeFX II pcie sound card (came with mobo)

The rest of the rig is the same as in my system specs.







A bit wobbily the last one but u get the idea



I have literally just got drivers etc installed within the last 5 mins and I have already got the cpu from 1.6GHz to 2.7GHz on stock cooler and voltages, had it post @ 3ghz but ill need to get to grips with half the new stuff in bios I aint ever seen b4! lols.. Will also need to play about with the RAM settings.

I was quite shocked, especially since with it being pretty damn chilly outside both cores idle at 18/18C and reach around 24/30ish on the Stock cooler under load. :) that was a surprise for me.

So I just ran Superpi 1.5, and comparing the score of my old opty 185 (at its best 3ghz+) to the E2140 @ just 2.7GHz is laughable...

Old Opty 185: 27 seconds

New E2140: 21.5 seconds



Id say that was a blinding jump in score, :eek:

Nice.. I'm getting an E2180 by Wednesday along w/ the Asus P5K-e, so it'll be cool to compare scores! Anyway, on with the overclocking and benchies!

Hehe, I came from a 3GHZ brisbane to an E4300, I saw a HUGE jump. 29 seconds to 17 seconds in the blink of an eye at the same clock speed.

hehe, on the same clock speed, with just ram tweaking im down to 20.4 seconds, so once i figure how the hell to do this overclocking correctly i reckons ill get past that.

Hell... my 3dmark06 score jumped from 10,400 on my 3ghz opty 185 and higher gfx core speeds,to, on a slower clocked cpu (this one) at just 2.85GHz and lower gfx core speeds i got 11,400!!

thats bleedin crazy!!

I have also managed to get this ram to 1200MHz @ 4/4/4/8 timings :) :) :)
