Whats your Job ?

Surely it can wait

Programmer. Will have another play tonight if I can get my rig up and running.

I must say the Chipset gets Toasty. I couldn't find any temps for it but I suspect hotter than the CPU.

Great fun for a Friday afternoon

Nice one for getting your results up so quick. Its looking great, still on stock volts :eek:

thats why that little heatsink is still good I think.

Will you be able to use this extra power for faster compilation times in your job.

I think the DS4 and DS3 are equal except the DS4 allows for CF

Have you tried CAS 4 yet? Maybe the ram's holding you back at those timings?

Remember the DS4 has a heatpipe cooling system while the DS3 does not. Its possible that the different ways in which the motherboard components are cooled on the different motherboards may have an effect on the highest FSB speeds achievable. Only time will tell as more people overclock those motherboards.

yer

I seen that one, I mean nothing over 501 then, but 500fsb is pretty good thinking about it.
I'm thinking of getting a conroe, might wait a while and see how many people blow up their mobo's/chips before getting one tho hehe

I'm also unsure about which mobo to get. If the northbridge's get really hot I might get a DS3 and watercool it, otherwise I was thinking of getting a DS4. What's so special about the DQ6? looks the same as DS4 only it has quad BIOS?

silversurfer · 28 Jul 2006 at 16:05

It can handle quad core better due to more voltage regulation

I think you maybe right. I recon under water and upping the volts I should be able to go over 500 Mhz with a bit of tweaking.

goddamn asgard technology

I can't believe it is still on stock volts with a 78% overclock :eek:

Soul for sale!

The Asgard · 28 Jul 2006 at 17:57

Yes pretty amazing stuff and all for £114+Vat or there abouts. Got to be the biggest CPU bargain ever!

I suspect they might frequency lock the CPU's in future if this becomes the norm.

and Yes you can't beat a bit of Asgard Technology unless that is you come against the Ori :eek:

Can't wait for series 10, oh yes :cool:

silversurfer · 28 Jul 2006 at 21:54

Why is that they leave fsb unlocked I wonder, maybe it cant be locked.

uk_sam · 28 Jul 2006 at 22:27

Does the DS4 come with memory dividers for less than 1:1?. Apparently the DS3 doesn't have that so the memory will limit the overclocks. I've got the DS3 but haven't overclocked yet.

I wouldnt have thought so, the enthusiast market is small and we're the only people who would be affected

I thought the replicators were the main asgard enemy?

img · 29 Jul 2006 at 11:39

if the chipset is getting hot and burning can you take off the heatsink and put a watercooling block on it?

SlightOC · 29 Jul 2006 at 11:49

Wow, got the same kit as The Asgard and I'm up to 2449.9 MHz.
Do I just keep going?
Not a serious OCer by the way!

They got pwned

Same as any other chipset I presume

Provided you can get one with the right mounting kit yeah. or just a better air cooler

Gashman · 29 Jul 2006 at 14:07

man SG1 series 10 will rock i think, still never seen asgard against ori, so who knows
