 | another badass folder coming up when this piece of [M]ness gets hooked up to the net  2500 mhz is stability testing now. if it's prime stable for some days/gamestable, it won't change anymore. damn... I remember athy's now... my 470 watt superflower superpsu gettin' all hot, +5v line dropping to 4.85... with an intel @ 3650, it never even went under 5.05...amd =powersuckers...

| 5V line is low on most nf² mobo's if i'm not mistaken. 4.85v is A-OK (mine hoovers between 4.75-4.8). I've got a 2610mhz screenie somewhere. Your 2550mhz doesn't impress me at all.  Like JMke said, sisoft doesn't represent the DCDDR power, but i get a little better score at 200 though: 3104/2920 at CL2 7-2-2 aggressive.

| I had reasons to suspect boards which had higher Vdd (chipset voltage) where better overclockers. Users at AOA (official Epox) and Xtremesys (guru's) confirmed my thought, and someone at xtreme figured out how to voltmod the chipset of the 8rda+. Ppl who have done the voltmod are up to 225 Mhz sync dcddr (previously stuck at 200~210)!!!! Imagine the power! :grin:

| 2500Mhz is very, very good for aircooling (with a standard fan). Which stepping/week? AIUHB?

| it's an xp 2600, aiuhb I think Running prime 95 and everything else I throw at it flawlessly at 2500 mhz with the slk800 and YStech fan. Ram @ 200 cas 2 /2-7-2, sisoft @ 3095/2932 now. Temps asus probe : 38°C never trust an asus probe : bios 54°C Stable, fast, (not nearly as fast as the 3600 mhz p4 however-but that one was prometeia and the mobo's dead-awaiting RMA), and nicely done, however, all that unusable serial ata-raid-double lan-soundstorm-****... damn, why do I always take deluxe or gold editions when I don't need all that overkill
