After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain.  I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain.  If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration. 

Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

    Benchmarks - Overclocked

    Overclocking
    As with all of our reviews we pit the default speed system against the overclocked one in a head to head byte match. The results of this are below. The effective overclock here is 3.36Ghz with a FSB overclock of 1925Mhz (or 481Mhz x 4). This is quite impressive and shows the strength of the DFI bios. We almost made it to the coveted 500Mhz FSB however a chipset limitation was preventing us from advancing past 493Mhz FSB. Of course your mileage will vary and as time progresses our overclock will likely increase as the chipset slowly burns in with use.

    Overclocking Conclusion
    We must say overclocking on the LAN Party UT NF680I LT SLI-T2R is not only extremely easy but the results really speak for themselves. Not only is this the largest overclocking range we have ever attained from a single processor (1.20+ Ghz) but we could repeat these results using a new E6350 that we had floating around the lab.
