I have got this too ( HPA can't load bios, etc ) but then i have see by error i had install Smart6...Don't know if it's F7e or this... but the Quick Bios Boost is enabled by default with this soft.. maybe related. Anyway, i like how look this board, and damn, they have really put some money in it.. Let's hope they will update it with EFI then, All you want to know about the board ( the most in depth review of a board i have seen, this guy is crazy ) http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=263543 I like to much how their stable and powerful at 5ghz... Not so far of the 8 cores / 16T
2 oc boots so far first was on f4 witch sucked f7a now 1.50v sel llc l2 image hack....er shack hosts my ss's
amazing on cinebench eh lane quicker than 12 core stuff crazy eh welcome to the sandy club gino , i found f6x bios and f7e were the best bios myself i am on f7e myself
thanks glen i think i might like the sb club i'm going to try to push it up a bit today sometime. tomorrow dice if i get a chance
you love dice mate, yours will fly in aqua and 01 and 06 in fact all of them with a gtx 580 behind it, i get 39,200 in 06 with 2 cards (quicker than my 3 cards annoyingly) 404k aqua 2 cards and about 49k in 05 with 3 cards i think, thats with cpu on water and cards on air 100% fan , i don't think the sandies throttle until 90 degrees
I got crap thuo after about 1 hour 05 49,5k 01 120k 03 170 with lowish clocks on gpu. i booted 1 card in a x8 pci-e slot wtf do they put the 16x's so close for? i still have to change slots *oh i got a h70 thingy for cooling its ok so far. i'll try for more but i need better card clocks for this bench
hey cowie, just wondering why you keep benching '03 with all the new hardware. i see that in a lot of your posts across the forum. do you use it to find stability as well? i've never tried '03 before, only Vantage and 11 so i don't know if it stresses better or anything
Don't laugh cowie, it's why i have buy this mobo, don't wanted to buy a new Parallel bridge for my gpu's watercooling setup. there's only 3 boards with a 2 slots CFX/SLI space ( Maximus, UD7 and Asus WS ) Anyway the F7e is not easy to fine... Dinos have post it on the XS UD7 thread if you don't find it i can send it to you. @Virtue, 03 is old school bench, so a lot of fun hé hé .
Yo beux i was just about to send out the search party for you good to see you stop by,still am for eddie thuo... virtue i use 03 for xp benching theres more gpu usage then 06 or 01 and i think the bench ok to play with. lane i fixed the secod card in the x16 slot i must have picked up 6-7k with both the 580's @ 16x,more cpu speed helped too but not for whole 10k increase. I'll see if i can do better next time glen :nerd:
whoa :eek3: very nice cowie 180k eh 2 cards no ln2 amazing eh, can you boot with 55 multi have you found your chips max yet, these sandies are weird not like anything else whereas with other cpus if you could do 06 at a certain freuency you could do 05 a bit higher and aua and 01 a bit higher again whereas with mine 5373 i can do all of them no worries but at 10mhz more won't even post :3eyes:
so far i cant get x55 to boot max yesterday i found was x54 bkl 1012=5444. Cant get 2166 rams to work thuo will try more today.
the 2600K is perfect for non dry ICe or LN2 users, but the limitation bring by Intel on multi make it hard to beat LN2 and Dry Ice scores .... an I7 980-990 or the next 995 will be hard to beat ......... but thoses CPU's are perfect for watercooling Overclockers, .... if you have a CPU who can use 57x multi or not , he will do it wathever is the cooling... anyway the max you will keep on it is 57x multi + Bcklock ( who are really limited, the max is 108mhz if i don't do a mistake ) it can't keep with a I7 980x @ 6ghz+ under LN2 . money is money and Intel Know it better of any entreprise here ...
he he lane i think you've posted on the wrong forum mate by mistake what you want is xxxxhotsexygimps dot com
