Asus Prepares X48, 750i SLI Motherboards

Ad

p>Asus is taking orders on its latest high-end and mid-priced performance PC motherboards, the Rampage Formula and P5N-D. These boards displace the Maximus Formula and P5N-E by adding new features.

Using the upscale X48 chipset, the Rampage Formula is now "blessed by Intel" with a chipset that officially supports FSB-1600. The X48 receives additional validation testing from Intel compared to the X38, and represents its top-binned parts using the same technology.

The P5N-D uses nVidia’s revised 750i chipset to offer full support for the latest 45 nm cores at bus speeds up to FSB-1333.

Is it time for another DDR3 grouptest?

I bought 4 gigs of the aXeRam PC2-9600 (1200MHz) for £170, stuck it in my Evga 680i board and started tweaking, reached 3-3-3-8 @ 800MHz using 2.0v, 4-3-4-8 @ 1066MHz using 2.0v, 5-4-4-12 @ 1115MHz using 2.0v, 5-5-5-15 @ 1200MHz using 2.2v, 5-5-5-16 @ 1312MHz using 2.2v.
All these settings got through various stress tests completely stable, other hardware used were X6800 cooled by a titan amanda tec cooler, PC P+C 850W PSU.
Would love to see a shoot out of the latest top spec ram (these included) with the likes of TWIN2X2048-8888C4DF thrown in, as far as i'm concerned for the price it's going to be hard to beat these clocks/timings as in bang for your buck.
