About the BIOS part: The main page The main “adjusting page” CPU information DRAM options page: The BIOS options of INFINTY are a little “user friendly” than other series. Range of FSB: 266 to 700MHz DDRII clocking ration: 533/ 677/ 800 Voltage options page The highest voltage that we can add is 0.7875V. The highest voltage for DDRII that I can reach is 3.375V. really a wide range. 2 VTT options that you needed to take care, if you reached FSB500 or above. NB voltage |
System for the test CPU:Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 MB: DFI INFINITY P965-S DARK DRAM:CORSAIR TWIN2X2048-10000C5DF VGA:ELSA GLADIAC 860GTS HD:Seagate 7200.7 80GB POWER:Corsair HX620W Modular Power Supply Cooler:TT Big Typhoon VX DARK, driver installation page CPU overclock parts…. It is easy to reach 500MHz, without any additional voltage for VTT and NB 5001X7=>3508Mhz DDRII 1002 CL4 4 3-9 2.33V( a tight setting for DDRII) SUPER PI 32M 14m03s DDRII 1002 CL5 5-5-15 2.04V(auto setting of DDRII ) SUPER PI 32M 14m26s Dual Super PI 32M The limit of the FSB is approximately 505 MHz, which’s without any additional voltage for chipset. Of course, it’s related to CPU itself. I have made a strict parameter for DRAM settings of INFINITY P965-S… Then, there is a very good result from Super PI. CORSAIR TWIN2X2048-10000C5DF DDRII 1200 CL5 5-5-15 2.33V SUPER PI 32M ELSA GLADIAC 860GTS VGA: 675Mhz/2.02GHz 3DMARK 3DMARK2005 3DMARK2006 DFI INFINITY P965-S DARK The advantages: 1)For a fully solid capacitors version, the price is really reasonable. 2)The BIOS has a gigantic options for tweak, particularly the voltage options 3)It is not hard to let the CPU reached FSB500MHz without any additional voltage. 4)DRAM can reach 1200 level. So far, only ASUS P5B high-end model can does the same The defects: 1)Late market launching, might be lost some opportunity in market. 2)There is no Dark logo for the opening scene, when the system gets start. DFI has a good improvement these days…. Such like product package….from RD600 to now 965S, 680i….they truly found their “characteristic” in concept. Further, the OC ability is a main advantage of DFI boards as the past. Compares to other products that based on P965, DFI’s INFINITY P965-S DARK is almost one of the best board in the industry. It’s also a very good Intel platform too. The next test: The OC master of integrated platform>> BIOSTAR TA690G AM2 |
Good board ;) I could not think of a better one at this price range ~$140. |
My board arrives end this week, i'll post results later. |
