| Administrator |  DFI JR X58-T3H6 - MicroATX Photos, Overclocking, Info and Results
DFI sent me their DFI JR X58-T3H6 micro-ATX motherboard a while back, but was preoccupied with it's big brother the DFI UT X58-T3EH8 for the last 6 months  It's time to break out this younger sibling to see how it fairs against it's big brother  Going to test the DFI JR X58-T3H6, working back from my original i7 920 twin batch 3836A756 C0 cpus, then through to my twin batch i7 920 3851A368 D0 cpus, then finally to Xeon W3520 3845A935 D0 cpu so can get a comparison of how each cpu did compared with DFI UT X58-T3EH8 I'll be using 2 sets of triple channel memory kits for now until I can get my Kingston kit RMA'd:
                                         I'll be using the exact same setup/cooling as used for latter DFI UT X58-T3EH8 tests listed below: System:

The DFI JR X58-T3H6 shipped with a pre-release 1/14 bios as I had this board way before it was available via retail channels. The official shipping bios was 1/15. So I flashed to 2/27 bios to start the tests. System:
First cpu to test is my second i7 920 3836A756 C0 cpu. You could say this is worst i7 920 cpu out of my four i7 920 c0 and d0 cpus in terms of vcore needed for 4Ghz on DFI UT X58-T3EH8 which was approximately 1.392v on TRUE120 air cooling. Now to see how this cpu fairs on DFI JR X58-T3H6 Now on DFI JR X58-T3H6, it's interesting to note the differences out of the board compared to DFI UT X58-T3EH8.

| Administrator | 6GB OCZ Platinum DDR3-1333 (OCZ3P1333LVA6GK) 'Animal Series'        This is the first time using this 6GB OCZ Platinum DDR3-1333 (OCZ3P1333LVA6GK) triple channel kit, so it's performance is an unknown for me. This kit is specially denoted with the 'A' in the product code to differentiate itself from regular OCZ Platinum DDR3-1333Mhz triple channel kit. Known as OCZ Animal series, OCZ decided to sprinkle some new Micron DDR3-2000Mhz CAS9 binned ICs and drop them in OCZ Platinum and Gold series products at the lower rated kit prices for us overclockers As always, whenever I start testing a new system - motherboard and memory pairing, the first thing I do is focus solely on how the memory behaves - what it can and can't do. I'll start with it's rated timings 7-7-7-24 at 1.65v and work my way up. So bookmark this page and check back for updates  Super Pi 32M First objective, single Super Pi 32M stable at rated timings with vdimm 1.68v bios set - SG fluctuates between 1.64v and 1.66v.

Installed my Corsair HX1000 to continue the memory tests for single Super Pi 32M to get a feel of how these OCZ Platinum 1333 Animal memory behave
    more tests soon.. |

Are there any major differences with T3eH8, except for the fact that this one is mATX ? 'Cause here in Greece their prices are almost the same (249€ for the T3H6, 258€ for the T3eH8). These new OCZ kits are spectacular !

| Administrator | By GNU Thanks still testing the OCZ Animal so results will follow
By George_o/c The PWM design is alot stronger on UT X58-T3EH8, so will handle much higher load/oc's especially on phase/sub zero compared to the little brother, JR X58.
Here the price on JR X58 has dropped somewhat JR X58 AUD$299 originally in OZ same price as DK X58 DK X58 AUD$344 UT X58 AUD$444 So maybe wait for a drop in price if you want JR X58. But for oc'ing to the max UT X58 would be better. |
