CPU-Z
Playing around with the DS-3 at work since a new one came in. Have two set-up like this computers both similiar configs.
C2D E6400
Stock Heatsink on Processor
Stock Voltage on Processor
2x 512 PC2-533 5-5-5-18 Dell Value Ram Pull +.2 on VDimm
DS-3 (Like a fine wine this board seems to get better with age)
Centurion Case
400x8 @ 4-4-4-12 1:1
I would say this board has come a long ways and maybe should be a consideration for everyone as the price seems to keep getting lower.
Ram is holding me back, but with +.3 on VDimm it is stable at 420*8. But since they are office computers its going to be 24/7 stable at 3.2 ghz. As you can see I have never stopped running Boinc in the background, make your office a good office, crunch well your computer does nothing.
Only problem with this board anymore it still doesn't support the high-end micron stuff as well as some other boards, but hopefully that can be fixed with a better bios.
