Taming new beasts !

[darklord]

Hi guys,
I havent been benching much lately due to lack of time and new hardware.
Yesterday a friend came back from US and he had some packages for me,

This is what the package had in it, :D

As of now started benching on air to get the hang of it and then later on i will CHILL it ;)

Initial impression that i got was that P45 is a different ball game altogether.Same is the case with DDR3. I am still getting used to both of these things.

some initial results after struggling for few hours :D

WoW! Nice darky.

[darklord]

Thanks man.I am personally happy with the RAM,its the cheapest kit i could pick up at 80 US$
and it can do 1600 7-7-7 @ 1.9V
Kits rated to do that are much more expensive.

Hint: All those with P35 boards, note that this chipset isnt exactly a succesor to the P35. It behaves very differently. ;)

Cool! Bring us more benchies along with a review. :)

wow 160$ for 4 gigs of ddr3 thats about 6400 RS. ONLYYYY!!!

Nice work amey. So, P45 better than P35 or just few more enhancement. See, I am thinking of upgrade, so please put in some more info.

[darklord]

Its definitely better than P35.Just that when it comes to clocking, it behaves differently.

After struggling with this board for 3-4 days, finally the elusive 600 FSB is cracked !! ;)

Very very tricky board to play with. It just hates my OCZ Platinum kits. Its a bit forgiving with my Patriot Vipers and OCZ Flex XLC.

More coming soon !
