i have been seeing insane FSB speeds on both the Gigabyte DS3 and many ASUS boards out there and i wanted to make a chart of the various boards to see which are fastest both with and without mods.

format is as follows:

Mother board - (full name please not just DS3 or something the brand and model)
FSB - (this is the MAX stable speed not your suicide run) and misc. voltages
CPU - and voltage /temps
RAM - (please list stock speeds/volts/timings and also what you run it at)
Cooling - (list CPU and motherboard cooling)
Mods - if any
Limit - what you think is limiting your OC ie. RAM, CPU, cooling, PSU, MOBO
 
Motherboard: Asus P5N-SLI

FSB: 244FSB @ 1.43V @ 3.4ghz

RAM: Samsung OEM PC2-3200 3-3-3-12 @ 2-2-2-12

cooling: Thermalright Ultra 90

mods: Sinked up board

CPU: Intel Pentium 4 520 @ 2.8(sstock)

Limit: Nvidia chipset
 
MOBO - Asus P5W DH

FSB MAX = 435 @ 1.85MCH voltage in bios

CPU = E6600 @ 1.55v @ 3.915ghz (435 x 9) cant remember temps but were
less than 55*C in TAT @ load

RAM - Gskill DDR2 800 "HZ" stock 4-4-4-12 suggested 2.0-2.1 runs stock @ 1.8 no prob. ran at 1:1 @ 435fsb so 870mhz @ 4-4-4-12 @ 2.1 (didnt want to have any doubt it was the ram although it will do 4-4-4-12 @ 1000mhz @ 2.1v)

Cooling - CPU = Ultra 120 w/ Yate loon 47cfm fan... MOBO = chipset with AS5 cover off and misc 40mm fan mounted on main chipset hs.

Mods - only chipset cooling but it was just an added fan... no after market stuff... the stock heatsink is a VERY good cooler when mated with a 40mm fan even if the fan is running very very slow)

Limit = chipset.... i should vmod the MCH so i can hit 4ghz!!!! or mabey i should just go grab a DS3 from frys... pop in my cpu do 4ghz and then take the mobo back. :beer:
 
Motherboard: Asus P5B Deluxe/Wifi-AP

FSB: 465

CPU: Intel C2D E6300 @ 3.26 1.38v

RAM: OCZ Gold EL DDR2-800 5-5-5-10 @ DDR2-930 4-5-4-10 1:1 2.1v

Cooling: Swiftech Apogee/BIP2/MCP250 - 7 120 fans inside a stacker 830 :p

Limit: This chip has alot more in it but my ram is limiting me.. maxed it out already.
 
come on people i know a lot more of u have C2Ds. It takes 2 seconds to fill this out just do it.
 
Motherboard - Asus P5B-Deluxe
FSB - 564mhz, SPI 32M stable
CPU - 1.84vcore, Stock Vapochill LS

Edit* Once I get this back in a case and start running 24/7 again i'll add some more results.
