TPU's Core i7 Overclocking and Feedback

What is your voltage at that speed/timings?

1.7v :rockout:'


I think i can get the voltage lower but i need the overhead for the OC'in and loads i am putting on the system.,
Plus i will try to lower the Cas at this speed and also they see how high i can clock them. But i am still playing with Bclocks and all that stuff to see just how high the i7 can fly


I have to say, I am glad I kept these CellShocks and also the BLOODRAGE is the BOMB, I love this motherboard. :respect: :rockout: :pimp:

I almost picked up the Bloodrage. It's a beautiful board, but it was $75 more than the DFI, and I love the Genie bios. Best bios ever, after you're familiar with it. It will be here on Thursday. I can't wait.
 
Results! Damn fit how is that PSU holding up? Not even warm I bet.
 
hey guys

little more info about my screenshot before.

i am running:

revolution 1050w power supply
core i7 2.93ghz @ 3.6ghz
MSI Eclipse X58 motherboard
3gb kingston ddr3 hyper ram
coolermaster n520(?) heatsink
western digital 300gb raptor (AHCI)
2 x MSI 260GTX in SLI mode

I did run a third card for about 1000 points more in 3d mark 2006, and a hell of a lot smoother too.

i scored around 17200 in vantage, but i am finding vantage crashes a lot more when my stuff is overclocked. i dont have access to the fine tweaking in the MSI bios, and it's all just out of the box with the CPU clock upped to 166x22 instead of 133x22. (there's a jumper on the board that does this)

anyone know of any tweaking tools for the MSI Eclipse mainboard?

i was using nvidia performance tool to over clock the video cards, but became unstable with only a little tweaking..

thanks guys, will post pics soon if you want? is that a good score i got?

That's not his.
 
FIT is that yours for real>?
 
I finally have something to contribute to my own thread! Got myself a set of ram like fits. This stuff is amazing. i7 eliminates the need for high priced ram!

hahaha, damn dude, you guys are loving that ram :laugh: Great results though
 
LOL. That was the first boot. Have shots of some other tests to post. This will take me a while to need to do a warning post. :p
 
that is crazy guys damn i kind of wished i went with value select ram haha

Here are those results I mentioned earlier. I myself will probably make the switch to DFI as well, this ASUS board is great for Tri SLi, but not the best at OCing. Poor BIOS design. Also will part with the CSX Diablo's as well. Should be fun. Enough rambling, more pictures.
