P35 LanParty T2R, E6850 and 8800GTX - 600fsb on dry ice

[s e t h]

here are some pics of the mobo and some benchies

this mobo is the best looking one ever built in my opinion...


love the way this 'sinks bolts straight to the board


and i mean bolts!...i love this feature...reminds me of what a bencher would do




someone please confirm vcore...i insulated mine before firing it up so cannot confirm it yet






hmmm...bling bling...i'm not using any of this stuff even at 550fsb


my bench partner TraX and I have managed to get our hands on some interesting new hardware as well as completing 'ghetto pot 5 es' for testing
Here are some reults from the last session.

--------------

600fsb

superpi 1m - 10.516s @ 600fsb


2001se - 74025 @ 600fsb


ghetto pot 5 mounted


insulated & running


ghetto pot 2 ready to go


both insulated & running


voltage & temp reads


verdict...so far this appears to be the best mobo i ever owned.
well done to Oskar, Jarry and the rest of the DFI gang

[tiborrr]

Great job on the ghetto mounting mechanism, gotta love it Nice FSB clocks indeed, i am sure this mobo can do 650+ at 1333FSB strap without major problems, just pour some LN2 on that E6850. It seems that FSB wall has kicked in.


P.S.: Not sure about the AQ3 score, but 2k1 looks fairly bad for clocks that high...

GJ anyway!

i'm seeing and i'm likin'

[Monstru]

Super 6850 and super set-up. Congrats!!!

Also, that Ghetto pot really loks mean

[nachthymnen]

Great!
This DFI seems to be very good in OC.
I have ordered 1 for the 6th of september.
Also very very good CPU

All from bios right?(Not clock gen)

[eva2000]

Very nice indeed.. sure you have enough multimeters there ?

is that sticky tape over the video card memory chips ?

[s e t h]

nachthymnen - yes all bios settings

eva2000 - never enough multimeters man...and yes sticky tape to keep out the air and its water vapour.

[Morais]

Whoa, great pics and results

[Timbosan]

600 FSB Good job guys thats an impressive mobo. Im curious though, how much does DI help with the northbridge overclocking? Can it hit 600 on water or aircooled? What vNB?

[tiborrr]

P965 had coldbug at around 0°C. I've tried SS cooling on P5B-Dlx and also some dryice cooling before that. I am assuming that P35 has CB around zero aswell. Too bad, i975X was always grateful when running @ ~ -60°C

[Okda]

very nice mobo and awesome setup

[Solarfall]

great pics and awesome scores

[BeardyMan]

Flytek, you sure did fly with that E6850

Voltages?

[Achill3uS]

Congrats
Very nice results, and the DFI looks amazing

[AuriL]

I want this mobo

nice pics

[Oliver]

Looks great .
The motherboard and cpu seems very good.
keep pushing it .

[TraX]

Thanks all

600 FSB Good job guys thats an impressive mobo. Im curious though, how much does DI help with the northbridge overclocking? Can it hit 600 on water or aircooled? What vNB?

The board arrived & went straight onto phase, so no idea yet on max on air / water. vNB was around 1.55v for 600mhz+ and our e6850 manages 555mhz on air on a dfi 965 -s.

P965 had coldbug at around 0°C. I've tried SS cooling on P5B-Dlx and also some dryice cooling before that. I am assuming that P35 has CB around zero aswell. Too bad, i975X was always grateful when running @ ~ -60°C

Sorry tiborrr I dont completely understand the comment? Our DFI P965 -s managed to run below 0°C as did the dfi P35. No direct sub-zero cooling was applied to the northbridge in either instance, but both where held in an enclosure at -13°C ambient.

Flytek, you sure did fly with that E6850

Voltages?

We are very happy with this chip
vCore was 1.76v

Congrats
Very nice results, and the DFI looks amazing

Achill3us, flytek is having connectivity issues at the moment & not able to get online. You can PM me & I will relay to him directly, or if you prefer wait for him to sort it out

Once again thanks for all the positive comments

[tiborrr]

I am saying that i've experienced chipset cold bug on P965 and i am assuming that P35 is pretty much the same story.

Indeed, the board worked while being cooled at e.g. -35°C (SS 7ccm Embraco R404a, Chilly1 clone cooling head), but it clocked notably worse on 1066MHz FSB strap than when aircooled (510MHz aircooled with Zalman NB47 & 1.95Vnb vs. 470MHz SS cooled with the same or higher voltage).

Coldbug - it doesn't necasserly mean the HW won't work, it can also mean that it will clock worse than ambient cooled.

[RPGWiZaRD]

Nice board and CPU.


Haha that's what I call "motherboard posing", that's not everyday you see some1 put the mobo on such "natural" surface. Sure melts into the environment and looks great.

[PanteraGSTK]

Nice job. Gotta love zip tie mounting.

[3oh6]

just curios as to what memory timings were...most importantly performance level for the 32M run @ 545*9. happen to have a Memset of that run? the reason i am curious is because the time is astonishingly bad...P5B-Dlx 1333 strap bad. were you just testing stability? the 1M run looks good for 5GHz but we all know that 1M is about horsepower sort of speak.

[NewBeetle]

Nice work and nice results, flytek-san.

I have tested "SetFSB for P35-T2R".


This is "beta" version and temporary download is here.
And select the Clock Generator "CY28551LFXC".

Special thanks abo-san.

Warning!!!
This is "beta" version.
Use "SetFSB.exe" at your own risk.

tiborrr - we didn't cool the NB with anything serious so we don't know if the chipset is coldbugged.

3oh6 - the board was in default state and booted from bios for every run....so the perfornmance level was at 8...and i'm not sure which fsb it switches from 7 to 8 iether. (subtimings were also at default except maybe trfc)
also absolutely no tweaks were used for 2D or 3D...and the OS has been booted using the F8 on first boot method for several different boards from 975, 965 and a couple of P35 boards too...no chipset drivers installed iether.

NewBeetle-san - thank you...i like a little windows application for rapid limit finding

[A_Noob]

Wow, very nice board and nice OC too. I like it but only if it was setup like the Asus Blitz with 8x8x4 PCIE, this is 16x4x1 PCIE. Maybe if they do that I might consider buying it =).

[eva2000]

hey thanks NewBeetle.. i put up a mirror for setFSB http://i4memory.com/reviewimages/mot...tfsb20b15n.zip i got plenty of bandwidth available
