Epox 9nda3+ Test(ddr670 Pass!!!)
-
What ram are u using? The bandwidth seems a bit low
Edit i just saw gskill
-
@ georgesod its Gskill PC4800, yeah the screenshot is a lil tricky to read...I guess the latency does hurt performance even at these high speeds :rolleyes:
-
Yeah, this board can definetely hit high HTTs...
It does need the new BIOS (10 Nov) though, to properly support some double banked dimms...

do you guys have any trouble running ldt at x3?? if i set it in the bios i can't get it to post.
-
I have run 325fsb dual channel DDR650 on this same Epox with 2x512dimms which up's the memory controller load much more than 2x256...but it needs 2T just like we are probably seeing here.
-
Yeah this is definitely 2T cmd. That should be way over 8k in sandra even with the crap timings.
-
windwithme can you try 1T for us?
-
so that board doesnt suck as bad as i have bin hearing
-
Guys with a vdimm mod the boards pretty sweet, I have mailed Epox suggesting they add a few extra tweaking options to the ram setup and then it would be a lot better.
Just for jollies I decided to run 2t with some 3200rev2 2x512. Its pretty stable here although i have a driver issue with sandra crashing out but super pi and everest are totally fine.
See what you think. CPU is a 3800+ running 320fsbx8 2T

Ok just for you ;) Pot is 50K linear set to max resistance to start. Pin6 to ground (in this case a fan header so i can unplug it)
Contrast is a little high but its nice an clear for you.
-
that mod dont look as hard as i thought what if other thin soldering the black wire on i just make sure it has contact and hot glue it that way if the board dies i can still RMA it?

I would solder it m8
-
so found the absolute max...seems you need to match the ram to the board well and it really does need the vdimm mod.
-
bummer i suck at soldering owell thanks for the info and i will now quit spaming/hijacking someone els thread :)
-
So where does the Epox fall into it all? Better than the MSI or about the same?
-
I think its better although it needs an update to the bios for all the alpha tweaks and the vdimm mod.
-
i have always known epox for there extreme voltages its sad to see they didnt bring it along with this board
-
i have to agree this board is better than the neo2. a better bios would make this board shine even more. cant wait till i get my fx-55 under the LS. hurry up mr fedex man :p:
-
what are the prices like?
-
Much cheaper than the Neo2 Plat...
