ASUS P6T Deluxe (x58/ ICH10R)

chuckbam · 11-08-2008, 05:12 AM

I am going to buy a ASUS P6T Deluxe. I have been holding off buying a new MB till i7 came out. I have been very happy with my P5B-D.

If anyone is interested, the manual pdf is up on the ASUS ftp.

ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/asus/mb/LGA1366/

Here's a review of that MB and another review of the new cpu's, check out the temps when overclocked to 3.8ghz on water 82C......

Here's the temps!

chuckbam · 11-10-2008, 05:14 PM

Because I am not an extreme overclocker and I want to power down. I did some of my own math. Looks like what I will need is DDR3 1333 MHz for a BCLK of 165 to 170.

I am going to keep the TM function. I will use air. So, my OC will depend on the vcore and the thermal. I am thinking that 165 should be OK.

They are using a VCore of 1.25. Even at stock speed. I think you don't need it that high at lower overclocks. I have not seen the official Intel specs yet. But, I have seen a number of CPUZ that have the 920 at 1.16 ~ 1.176. So for a lower overclock, I don't think this helps me much with cooling needs. I need to see the Intel specs. I know that it is 130W.

I am thinking about a 3.3 to 3.4 OC.

I am sure there will be a few more around here. I am going to wait and let the first offer price settle down.

They would think I would be nuts on XtremeSystems Forums. But, I think I will shoot for 3.3GHz and run the memory a little under stock of 1333. I have read with the Corsair memory you can take the timings down.

chuckbam · 11-27-2008, 04:44 PM

The Bios has three power management setting,

SpeedStep, Enabled
C1E, Enabled
Intel C-State, Disabled

I don't think you would want them all enabled. I think that it would be best to Disabled SpeedStep and C1E and Enable C-State. I think C-State is more advanced because it goes into C-States, C1, C2, and C3.

What do you think?

Dandruff · 11-28-2008, 06:37 AM

I would let C1E enabled too.

The C-State changes the multiplier.

chuckbam · 11-30-2008, 02:09 AM

Well, I was wrong. When I enable SpeedStep and C1E and disable C-State gives me lower idle temps and adds the processor settings in the Windows power management.

The C-State has several modes that you can set at. I have not tested them. I only tested at auto.

Both settings change the multiplier down to 12x and lower vcore from 1.2 to 1.18. But, SpeedStep and C1E gives me about 4 to 5c drop in CPU temp.

One strange thing to me, I have a 3 pin CPU fan, the SpeedStep and C1E set-up increases the fan speed by almost 900 RPM. Just noticed that. I have the fan power plans disabled in the bios.

shaihulud · 12-09-2008, 12:54 PM

Chuck can you do me a favor? Can you look in Device Manager at the I/O APIC controller under System Devices and see if there is a memory range conflict? One more thing too. Did you enable VT-d?

From your experience so far, what do you think of the higher C states? Do you prefer them now compared to C1E?
