i dont have a HD for this system (its a partial build for a customer) so ill guess M86 is all i can do

 

[Mikki]

Cool....that's a funky looking board Is this the pre-tested cpu?

 

[THUGSROOK]

no, its a new cpu.

no HD, no time to play around, so this is the least i can do

3006mhz 167fsb @ 1.525v = failed

Kingston VR?
<--- Thinks you need to goto the hospitol for a checkup
Nice new toys you got there anyways. Soon as I can get a HD and memory, I will be trying out a new 2.53 that I ordered... at least if it is a mVID type .

 

[Mikki]

Anything you wanna tell us about the BH7? Aside from the funky color?

 

[THUGSROOK]

ya know ~ there is something very appealing about testing this way.
if this program was 100% accurate......
well, if wishes were horses, id own a stable

 

[THUGSROOK]

well um its ugly?

its running great, bios looks great, fully featured in there.
layout is nice ~ no complaints from me.

i wouldve liked to tossed that board in my system, but i didnt get enough time to

 

[Mikki]

lol! Ugly it is, tho I prefer "funky"....

gad forbid TR overclocks a less then perfect system! :Q
retail fan too!

i think its about time someone did a budget OC on here dont you think? :evil:

 

[THUGSROOK]

btw: raidmax case & 350w PSU / 2 80mm case fans / GF4mx something or other / onboard sound

 

[Mikki]

350w PSU <--holding it back maybe?

 

[THUGSROOK]

in M86 on default voltages? i doubt it.

not quite as good as the ASUS crash free bios :beer:

 

[LastRide]

Yeah,that Kingston is putting up the good fight for 2700 ram.Maybe you need to investigate those sticks a little more,say 450DDR.

Not at all! Would it do any better with a bump in Vdimm?
