Thanks for the bios linky

Still would like some sort of explanation as to your "disappearance", was it aliens

The MSI board only has 3 phase power reg and core centre has always sucked, never again MSI for me ever after my Neo2 875 Fis2R

wwm - anxious to see the MSI K8N Diamond Plus test. Do you already have one?

**tgm_of_xxl** · 11-26-2005, 07:48 PM

Hi,

I wonder if you could help me tweak my SLI-DR Expert BIOS since i just got this board and i'm not used to this board yet.
I have a 4000+ Clawhammer, SLI-DR Expert board, and a pair of Corsair 4400C25PT/TCCD sticks (2x512m).
Could you help me with some bios settings/screenshots with that config?
Right now am running it on auto, 1:1 fsb/ldt ratio @ 270MHz and it's memtest stable, but it fails windows install. Can i get some more out of it?

Thanks a lot!

PS: The system is watercooled (Antarctica + 2xBlackIce Pro+120mm Akasa)

Anyone tried using speedfan v425 with an Opty and Expert ??, every time I try to use it my 'puter reboots

**ixtapalapaquetl** · 11-27-2005, 07:00 AM

Yeah, this is common. A possible work around is here, but I haven't tried it.

**Dissolved** · 12-03-2005, 07:58 PM

No one else running this mobo?

i got mine, but i have a venice and crappy TCCD, so i cant do much of any overclocking..

Yes WWM, why are you ignoring members requests? Is is this common practise in your homeland? Its not very nice thing to do, so please show a little humility and let us know wht you have been up to these last month or so after starting this thread then totally neglecting it.

I would like to know the same things as other peeps,

Did you fry any CPU's?
Why did you not post here at all?
Where you abducted by aliens

?

Did anyone kill cpu in expert

I am here. The Expert rocks IMO. I'm getting higher stable overclocks with it. Its about the same for benching, but in for 24/7 gaming stable settings it runs higher clocks. Perfect for a gaming guy like myself.

What credibility you had wwt is gone now, and pimping another board after, IMHO your less than honest behaviour in this thread can only be considered as purely that, pimping

BAD form, WWM. BAD form. You start a thread on the Expert, then fall off the face of the earth, come back with no explaination, no further details on the Expert, and start talking about a new MSI board with three phase power.
I, for one, will not be waiting for you to elaborate on it, since you'll probably pull the same crap again and leave us hanging.

Hi pcdoc1 , would you please share your ram settings

I cant run synchro with my tccd ( but was 310 1:1 2,5-4-3-5 prime stable with a venice on a Ultra-D)
I read it can be a drive strenght issue.
Running stock bios NF4EDB02.
I have only a 1.3 ATX PS, 475W Enermax with 20pins ATX 4 pins 12V.

Thanks for help

Sorry to sound somewhat offensive but you (thats you wwm) sure do give the impression that you are unaware of or do not understand the concept behind effective communication, i.e. you talk, we listen, you reply, we listen, you reply, we listen, and so on... so please do try if you can otherwise please do seriously consider politic (where your communications skill will be well at home!) and dont worry I know we are not talking but writing here, the idea is same!

Let me tell you a joke:

"A man leaves his home village and goes to town to study. After his studies are over, he starts a small business and begins earning decent money, and he starts sending money to people in his village. In a short time, his income is good enough that he can afford to send everyone in his village $100 as a Christmas present. Everything's fine, the villagers are happy and proud of their neighbour, until one year when the man sends the usual present together with a note. In the note the man said that his two kids are grown now and he has to send them to school, so he didn't afford to send $100 to each person in the village, so he sent only $50. When hearing this, the villagers said: >>Hey, he's sending his kids at school on OUR money<<"

Same case here, wwm has brought a serious contribution with his reports to the overclocking community, you must learn to appreciate that. You cannot demand a service that was offered for free to begin with, it's wwm's choice if he will present more details on his progress or not.

I am with you 100%. Would you all have been better off without the thread thus far? If so, might I suggest you simply stop reading it and forget it was ever here? I for one am thankful for the preview. More would be nice, but I am happy with what I've got. Thanks wwm.

(I guess that makes me a Micutzu apologist.)

**CrashOv3r1De** · 12-07-2005, 10:59 AM

Nice review and scores

**mdzcpa** · 12-07-2005, 05:19 PM

To All:

As far as WWM being here or not on this thread, get off his back! He is under no obligation to do ANYTHING on these forums. Take his preview for what its worth and move on. He owes none of you a thing. He doesn't work for you.

Man, some folks never cease to amaze
