well it seems like i'm not getting the 8rda3+ after all, newegg doesn't sell the 8rda+ anymore and offered me a refund, this DFI is here to stay
anyway Travis, i was wondering if the fault could be in my power supply, when i overclock the cpu voltage dips down quite a bit when i use prime95, it failed a 24-hour prime95 run at 1.85v and 2100mhz, i'm running 1.9v now, it now runs between 1.84-1.89 according to the sensor, with the set 1.85v at load it ran from 1.82-1.86
with the switching power off in the back causing the problem with the overclock and sometimes having to unplug the board from the power supply and plugging it back in, it makes me wonder if the power supply isn't sufficient for my overclock, i'm using a 433w Enermax EG465AX-VE(W) FCA, i have an Antec TruePower 380S (Silent Version with bigger heatsinks and only one fan) sitting in the closet which has 3% regulation instead of 5% on the Enermax, i can switch them when thanksgiving comes around when i go home to get the antec
tell me what you think, thanks
