  1. This one has the same stepping as my XP-M 2500+. With that low vcore doing 3.2GHz+, it should be very decent once pushed to the max. I would say it is rare to see XP-M 2800+ that good...
  2. cpc on, cpu on agressive, no wazza, totally broken windows.
  3. Mine worked at 3.7V VDIMM for some time without problems. And my NF7-S boards have always worked at 3.6 - 3.7V, but I think NF7-S is more reliable than DFI Ultra-B.
  4. I have maybe 10 dead s.A boards, but some of them were DOA, so I haven't killed them all on my own Don't even remember how I killed some of them, but... NF7-S due to leak from the waterblock, one or two from dead SB/NB and one from vtt=vref mod (v0.51 I think). I have 3 NF7-S still working though and they all are v0.53. One DFI Ultra-B due to high VIO, but it had problem with VDIMM mod from the beginning. One Soltek SL-75FNR2 for unknown reason. Have 2 AN7, but one was DOA, the other one still going strong. I use this AN7 to install windows from USB stick, then move to NF7-S for benching
  5. The problem with my Ultra B was that conventional vdimm mod didn't work either.
  6. I don't see a way for 282 1:1 and tight timings (BH-5) though It's not so easy even with s.939. Will fix windows later, however I think the other board is dead (the one without capacitor between 2 FETs to the mem slots) from the high 3.3V rail. It was behaving the same with just vdimm mod. So maybe it is good to be extra careful if your infinity is the same.
  7. Leave just 2 cores on and crank that NB up (disabling cores helps for higher NB clock).
  8. No, he wants the scores on the front page, then disables points after they are not considered as new top scores anymore and get dropped from that table. Nice trick
  9. All my 3 DFI Ultra-B can do at least 268-270MHz DC 1:1. 282 will be hard though.
  10. Go for 266x9 btw, one of my Ultra-B's can't handle the VDIMM mod and the only difference is that there's no smd capacitor between 2 FETs close to the memory slots. Unfortunately this is the board that does highest FSB without mod. The other 2 boards have it but all of them should do 266 easily. Actually it will be the first time to use one of my Ultra-B's for competitive benchmarking. I've always preferred NF7-S, because I love that board and also have self-modded bioses for it
  11. I wanted to try 311 2-2-2-5 on LN2 for second stage, but first I thought comp ends at midnight and then I woke up too late
  12. Strong? This is awful First antifreeze leaked from the chiller on the carpet. Then gpu block was not seated properly and GPU temp was very high. The GPU mod worked up to 1.7V only, had no time for mem mods on the VGA and VDIMM mod on the board. The thermocopule of the pot broke. There was some throttling in GT1, I suspect the board. Two runs... And of cource no time for stage 2.
  13. Yes, it is still a joke. I believe it will start on 15th this month, but we can't be sure... There's no "official" statement.
  14. Ok, my bad, it's higher than 3.7V according to bios. Sorry for video quality, it looked much better on the camera screen and I'm out of battery and SD card space...
  15. Well, I can do 275+ at about 3.5V, plus the timings at 280 were not that tight. 3.9 is ok for me, just doesn't help in this situation . IIRC, I've memtested some of the sticks at 270 3.2-3.3V, but don't remember with which CPU.
  16. I will definitely try LN2, but not now. Will have to test some different CPUs and hook up the chiller on the CPU to see if it makes any difference. @TASOS: ~3.7V, but they've seen 4V before. I tried up to 3.9 now, but didn't help on any of the sticks, so I suspect CPU/board.
  17. It was pretty hard to make any of my kits (2x256 and 2x512) work at 280. Perhaps it is the IMC or the board. 278 - OK, but 2MHz more and have troubles. I have several Corsairs (3200C2 and 3500C2), Mushkin - Level II, Special 222, OCZ VX. My best are one of the Level II, but still hard to run at 280 and it seems memory is not holding me back, since voltage does not help. Two of the Corsair 2x512MB are pretty good and also 2-3 kits of the 2x256. Maybe I can bin individual sticks and make better combination.
  18. Yes, 2x512 is faster, since it is double-sided and although 256MB BH-5 sticks usually have chips on both sides of the PCB, they are actually SS/single-bank. For maximum performance on s.939 you'd want 512MB sticks as long as they are good enough. 256's are a little easier to overclock though. For s.A 256MB sticks are mandatory, since NF2 chipset does not like DS ram and you can go much higher in FSB this way. And as we know, FSB on s.A correlates directly with performance, or the so called "efficiency"
  19. kotori-san, then you have good efficiency. I'm slower than you with 2x256MB sticks, but also suspect my OS. We'll see
  20. Now I wanna play, too Good job, tight timings it seems. I will setup mine this evening.
  21. Nothing is working and the cup already started, yes
