I'd actually expect a higher score with all of that fancy hardware. :confused:

the motherboard you already have is better than either of them so I don't know why you would want to change.

DO NOT TRY TO USE NTUNE TO OVERCLOCK. sorry to yell :cool:

you are going to have to spend more money if you want RAM that you can overclock.

I think I'd try the DFI in your case.

that's a fine board but you should probably get an evga 680i A1.

evga 680 A1 or badaxe2

I think that this EVGA board must automatically overvolt the RAM at least .05 of a volt and that's why it's working at this setting for me, it might also explain why people are frying DIMMs running 2.4v, the actual voltage might me a lot higher.

disable any and all advanced cpu features like power management SLI RAM setting is on expert/manual I have all voltages set to auto other than the vcore and vdimm. vcore voltage is at 1.46825 (my E6400 seems to take more voltage than others') vdimm is at 2.15 memory timings are manually set to...

corsiar is definitely the best choice, IMO.

I guess I got lucky with my system, this is by far the best motherboard and RAM that I have ever used. I have the latest chipset drivers for the mobo from nvida and the P26 BIOS from EVGA, P27 does not work with this setup.

the A1 has the better warranty and also includes active cooling for the chipset. just buy the A1, you will not regret it.

you still dont' have enough voltage to the memory.

save your money.
