Overclocking/Overclocking Tests by windwithme @ 2009-01-13

Foxconn has moved aggressively forward in the retail market, previously only OEM supplier they are now pushing hard to get their brand recognized by end users. Their latest motherboard is based on Intel high end X58 chipset. Their naming schemes are not a mumbo jumbo of numbers and letters, but actually really eye-catching, like their P35 MARS, X48 Blackops, and now the X58 Blood Rage.

    Voltage settings:
  • CPU Core Voltage +10~1260mV(CPU maximum 2.52875V)
  • CPU VTT Voltage +10~1260mV
  • DRAM Voltage 1.50~2.86V(after1.60V, the interval is 0.01V)
  • CPU Vdroop Compensation. That is a function for CPU to maintain a stability environment when CPU is in a heavy voltage loading status.

    Every steps of the DDR3 parts can be fine tuned, like the X58:IOH core Voltage. 1.10 ~ 2.36V(interval is only 0.02V)
    Madshrimps (c)

    Up to 8 different OC profiles can be stored in the BIOS for quick retrieval
