road-runner Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Bought this motherboard for crunching mainly, my classified is RMA because of a bad bios flash, or it flashed ok or said it did but something went wrong. Anyway I had just got this i7 960 and needed another motherboard for the extra cpu I had so I went with something cheap, $144.00 foxconn flaming blade gti and stuck the 960 in it. Messed with it a little this morning just to see how it would overclock, not to bad for $144.00. Water cooling also, heatkiller 3.0 swiftech 320 radiator and a 655 pump. Cant wait to get my classified back and my cascade back, oh UPS tore the thing all up with a forklift also so it is having to be repaired at there expense.

OwinC Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 That is sweet! How long did it take you to hit that overclock? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 That is sweet! How long did it take you to hit that overclock? 1 bios update and about 8 reboots. I got it to boot at 195 x 25 one time but it did not want to do it again, 2 or 3 of those reboots was figuring out how to get the turbo working and to stay on so I would have a 25 multi. Put it back to crunching and and finished painting the doors on the house... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
