You DID have a R1 board. I have it now. You didn't like it because it had CBB. I modded a bios for it and no more CBB. Armor is all stripped off of it. No need, just holds heat. I use it as my AM3+ bencher now. It's a good board. Fairly happy with it.

Mine has been exceptional with the 8350. I'd like to see how hard I can push the 555BE to 955 under an Ashura Cooler.

Drove me nuts. glad to have gotten it to you instead, at least it was put to some good uses.

Pretty much all AMD CPU's have a cold bug of some kind. Motherboards are susceptible to cold bugs also. Most of the time it happens on boot. That's why it's called cold boot bug or CBB for short.

I thought that was CPU dependent and only the Phenom 1s suffered from that. Well it's Phenom I and Athlons through as far back as I can remember. You get lucky sometimes to find a processor without a CB issue. Had a s754 Paris core that liked LN2. The board was not the issue. Think that one hit 3.2ghz or thereabouts. Sometimes you get hardware that just doesn't like the cold. even if most of the time other people don't have an issue... Mine did lol.

I always disable CPU temp monitoring in the bios for cold.

In that case sell it off as good for air and water, bad for LN2 lol

When you get one that clocks better than others similar, you try the Dice or LN2 route. It's difficult to maintain a -30c like my 6400+ with LN2. Granted 4ghz was achievable, it took a lot of time, restarts and patience.

it does help, was a borrowed cpu to see how itd go, fx 4130 are a goer too if you get a goodn, and fx 4100 , but getting goodns are hard to find, but only a 4 core not 8

No voltage limitations either if you have the right board. All you need is cold on that processor and it will go more. Rule of thumb with FX = Good air and liquid can get you in the 5ghz club. DICE will get you in the 6ghz club and LN2 will bring you well beyond 7ghz and some cases 8ghz clubs respectively. If you OC enough FX processors on LN2 you will find the 8ghz club.

(don't get mad, it's a joke) i know, were a good team when we get goin, we got so close with his 8350 1 session, i was the sipper and he was doin the golden fingers stuff, we had it too, but he made a mistake an killed it, otherwise hed be in the 8 gig club 2 yrs ago, 7900+ i think he got, so close but so far away, hes never had a 8350 as good since

Oh man I have seen that CPU pot before lol that's a koolance I got one of those It's a good LN2 pot. It was lent to me, I don't own it. It was only slightly better than the one I sent you that I had made. Gained maybe 50mhz with it. I got a better jump in frequency going from 850w PSU to 1000w.

That's crazy the one you loaned me is pretty darn good did great every time I did dice with it never tried LN2 with it

Does the trick well. I've used it on just about all my processors. I used that old Koolance pot on a couple few processors, maybe one FX. For what it is, it does the trick.

Ram is as tweaked as i can get it without mucking with sub timings... It be nice to see what this unit can do under water or Peltier, it does well with the Scythe Ashura cooler.

Biostar TA880GU3+ Biostar A880GZ Biostar TA970
All these boards unlock CPUs as well. I've had pretty good luck with Biostar boards and AMD Phenom II unlocks.
