ok so here's the deal it cost me a bomb all the time but as it goes i wud prefer to upgrade parts rather than wait for them to phase out and be quite worthless!

decided to get this motherboard after all!

mainly because it has a lotes cpu sockets (read alot about low quality foxconn sockets takin motherboards and cpu's out) but also has ddr3 2200+ support :)

man that blue and orange led are bright!



i5 750 currently @ 4ghz 60* full load which isnt bad for air cooler! 1.3v and memory @ 2000mhz with stock timings have done a lil prime95 but thats about it! thats where you guys come in! am gonna make a thread in overclockin to see if you can help me get better results! :)

sorry about pics n vid but this phone is rubbish! cable management soon to come! :)
 
That cooler is just giant!

So you went with the geil stuff... How was it with that mobo? Would it get up to 2133MHz without the CPU clocked so high?

That said, 2000MHz for £69.99 memory aint half bad... Can drop it off to about 1800 and maybe get Cas7.
 
loving it :D and tbh 60 at full load @ 4ghz is great and i dont think there is a need to go any higher, good that everything is working out the box and looks smexi, have fun with the new kit :yumyum:

yes have had it at 2133mhz but only when i clocked cpu to 213x20 4259mhz! and the timings slackened themselves off to 10-10-10-32 (prime 95 was unstable the 3rd worker stopped workin because of an error??)

i dont how to use voltages myself :( but all help wud be much appreciated :)
 
Do you really need to upgrade from a 260 now tbh? What games are coming out in the next couple of months that warrent more power now. Better off waiting for fermi to drive down ati 59*0 series imo
