Asus Rampage Formula & E8400

[Repr]

So i got a new motherboard, and that means its time again

 

I had put my Commando motherboard to 400FSB with an 8 multiplier, on a 965 chipset here .

with a brand new motherboard, a new chipset and everything, i have to beat the 4.2 ghz it managed.

 

ill update as i reach higher speeds, or run into trouble

 

gogo for the rampage

Clock the snot out of it Repr! I think there is lots of potential with that combination. Keep us posted.

put it up at 3.6 at everything auto. went fine.

 

the option to change the FSB strap was a very nice option from this board. by selecting the 400fsb strap for the dram i could just let it run at 1066. tomorrow im a day off and will go up to 4ghz and see what it needs to get it stable

4.0 should be a breeze as long as your memory cooperates and you use the right strap/divider. I don't think your m/b or your cpu will hold you back as long as you get those two right.

7Ghz or nothing!

it seems both the asus rampage and maximus had lots of compatibility problems with ram, causing a Det Dram error on the lcd poster. Im downloading a new bios now that is supposed to clear this up....lets keep fingers crossed, otherwise im stuck at 3.6 (gotta say its a nice setting btw, everything on auto, temps low.....but not what id spend $300 for as a top)
