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.

No, it works in single, dual and triple channel. Triple channel just maximizes performance.

all stock

I am so frikin jealous of you guys. lol. I need some Core i7 goodness. :cry:

marketing scheme.

its total BS. get whatever 3/6 sticks you want.

if anyone has any questions just ask. we are more than happy to let you guys know everything you want to know about this.

Ya that's what I figured.... It sounded like way too much BS... I was almost hoping that guy would have come back with some evidence.

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.

he has a eclipse,

MSI platinum is the cheapest

Post your scores on HWbot.org

Get some points.

Look again Paulie, that's 1.32V under load, and the stock cooler isn't much better than the Core2Quad stock coolers. Seems about right to me.

That's the Turbo mode

I'm not saying it's incorrect. What I am saying is that it's hard to truly bench the chip with temps like that.

Looking good fit, let's push her a little more now!

Please someone make a SS of of the details of a CPU test in 3dmark06

dark2099 · Nov 17, 2008

Benches coming if it lives.

Fitseries3 · Nov 17, 2008

you know im not gonna post any more low scores/clocks

DaMulta · Nov 17, 2008

Can you guys take a few pics of the BIOS memory settings in your board/temps/ to some of the crazy you don't know what are settings?

I want to know how many frames per sec your getting in 06 cpu test

@3.2ghz its about 4-6

cdawall · Nov 17, 2008

damn thats hot i have an old prescott and its not that hot @3.8ghz...on the stock PD cooler

ap4lifetn · Nov 17, 2008

Nice nice 4GHz

all i did was set my memory to SPD, and cranked the BLCK up to 200 with voltage at 1.38, everything else booted up fine. I didn't really do any other tweaking
besides that.

I can get it to boot at 4.3GHz, but idle temps are in the 50's and i didnt try a super pi run...apparently we'll be limited to around 220-230 BCLK due to the uncore/qpi

really? wow...are you sure its not 32Ghz? :confused:

lol i know just poking fun at the program

dark2099 · Nov 17, 2008

So far for me, I have found the best method of overclocking is leaving the ram at auto and timings on auto. Manually selecting those is going to be a unpleasant day.

Like for real....I only got that score around 4.7Ghz on the QX9650
