    User Name: turtletrax Stability: Prime 25.5 Blend/OCCT ( I understand you want small FTT, I cannot generate enough heat with this chip to bring it into consideration at these voltages, and blend is a much better benchmark for overall stability) CPU: E8400 OC: 4050Mhz Stepping: 6 C0 Week: Q743A...

    Hey Jim ;) Nice board. good price :) I wish I had kept mine, havent found a board that can get my Q6600 to 4 ghz again :( Tried X38-DQ6 and the P35-T2R and no luck:) I think the DFI will do it , I just have to keep trying. But with the 680i it was a breeze :) Should go quick, a good...

    what could cause this kind of tempature difference?

    Quite normal as there is two sperate dies on the package. Each die will react to Vcore differently. I have about a 6c difference in temps across the seperate dies. Try a couple of mounts and see if it changes, but dont sweat it if it does not get better.

    Thinking of getting QX9850 over QX6850

    DO NOT get a QX9650 if you plan on using the 680i/780i. Looks like Intel is pissin in Nvidia's pool for not licensing SLI on the X38. Retail chips are not working well/at all in the above mentioned chipsets. Go P35 for single card slutions and X38 for Crotchfire. I suggest waiting for X38 to...

    HTPC Upgrade complete - Your Thoughts?

    Lose the 680i and go with a P5K deluxe or a regular P5K. No reason to get the 680i unless going SLi. How do I know? I've been there and done that. The stablilty of a Intel chipset is a huge plus for something that will 24/7 use and has to be stable for the whole time. Don't neccisarily have...

    MS & Toshiba Developing HD DVD Xbox 360?

    I grow tired of the "there will not be a _____ in the xbox 360" then 10 months later a version gets released with that exact thing. Allot of people that would have waited for the feature end up getting the thing under the pretense that will never happen. Then you end up with something less than...

    GIGABYTE X38-DQ6 @ [H]

    I am just getting into the meat and potatoes of this board and have only messed with the stock BIOS. I am running 4X1GB GMH at 480Mhz 4-5-4-11 and my Q6600 GO @ 3.6Ghz with 1.34Vcore. Set 400FSB and it booted stable. Gonna try to go for gold on Friday as I have the day off. My Q6600 is good...
