New X58 UBER HIGH END - UD9 :D
 

http://hwbot.org/community/submission/982589_

dinos gave it away earlier...

very, very nice result, but still another ES chip and ES board ontop of the standings....

retail cpu's will be clocking ok soon... the right mobo...right batch..and a little luck...and a little skill..its gonna fly...

**some benchers gets trays of cpus..and gets to bin them...and they get to use vcore unimaginable for xtreme benching...of course they get leverage...

i think this ud9 will be out soon...and i hope soon...i wanna see that mofo of a mobo...gigabyte is hinting good things to us lately soc cards..and now this...

it'll be

evga vs asus vs gigabyte.....more options :)

same old same old is getting old lol :thumbdown: and I thought we had decent chips gunslinger :shock:

oh look

world records!!! :D

Our next board?! It's looking good.

r3e and ud9....have very good efficiency ....they might be our new boards :D

i currently don't have an x58..these two are worth waiting for i guess :D

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...pk=ga-x58a-ud9

700$

lol

They are out of their minds ............ 7 bills :kissbutt:

i think we're paying dinos when we're buying this board..lol

its a joke dinos if you're here lol

Yeah I saw that price listed at Fudzilla the other day and thought it was a mis-print. GTF out of here with that.

They are way out in left field with this one. E762 has way better perks for less money. In that range I'd just get the W555 and two Xeons. :laughing:

What NOOBS! Than I go and buy a SR-2 right away for less. :Dizzy:

Yipee, got a review sample yesterday, looks pretty nice, but my god, 700$, hahahahahahaha, its not gonna sell even a single piece in India, and if it does it wont be because of my review, lol

It doesn't worth at this price . REX3 is just perfect :D

awesome bro, enjoy :thumbsup:

i just downloaded the manual....and read thru the bios and the error post codes....

i didn't see the coldbug switch...LOL

newegg now cuts pricing..on the board...624$ now with a psu combo...

i hate newegg but... oh well

Even if it is the best thing thing sliced bread, at this price point it is insane ...

way to late in the game for a 1366 soket flagship at 7 bills ....

What is Giga thinking .....

with a 980x combo...

its only 1479....

Def. way to late in the game.

yeah giga is crazy introducing this board so late and for twice the cost of comparable boards... Thanks, But I would rather have an SR-2 for $200 less :P

hehe having only the SR-2 doesn't worth :p
I mean you need 2 x cpu that are more expensive than an 980X :p

For sure UD9 is a great mobo . 2Ds are fast on it .
3D efficiency sucks though lol
That's why I suppose hicookie benched 3Ds on UD7.....F%#^&#) NF200s :D

i don't think its late...

990x in a couple of months...

vtt increments are so much better than r3e....
vdimm increments are sooooo much better than r3e
i'm liking the hotkeys...
and the voltage stabilty..or should i say power delivery...is the best out there.

many guys say the same for Xpower ...

xpower ....

has bad implrementation...

1.just using the dashboard is actually very tasking.
controlling the xpower is not that easy. evga asus ang gigabyte have better implementation.

2. xpower had ocp at the input and output side<-- this fact alone tells me that they never thought of gulftowns loading at more that 500w.

3. ram clocking is the worst on this board...prolly mem ocp not sure

looking at xpower records @ hwbot...after being released for months now. i'm still not impressed.

I dont know what to think anymore, I go off of my brothers experiences now. I dont trust really any review site and or guys with company ties. :)

Steponz doesnt like the Xpower so I wont get one
E762 was proven so I bought one
We used RIIIE at the asus event and I loved it

Any one here ever use the ud7 or ud9? I with hold judgement until someone I trust plays with it. Maybe it is worth the money.

the ud9 will drop in price eventually....

newegg just sucks at pricing...

this one caught my eye real good

just watch how effortlessly he switched the cpu multiplier with 12threads...

About the only person I will listen to when it comes to review is raja at anandtech. You just gotta weed out a tiny bit of the bs with him. After all you can't just outright bash a product and expect to do reviews, but he still makes it very blunt on what he thinks.

What of the rumblings that this board won't clock unless you have the "Special" bios connections that the big boys do?

Would not surprise me after the SOC incedent ....

Not in Giga's fan club since that BS ....

Nothing new I guess lol time to start hw trolling again

Thought I'd briefly sum up my UD9 thoughts here if case anyone is interested.

First off, yeah it's significantly overpriced. If it were $30-$50 more than the classified 4 way it would be worth it but not at $624 or whatever it is now.

Full disclosure, my board isn't retail and has a few minor differences, mostly power connectors.

As to the secret bios issues, personally I don't believe in them. I have the E22 bios that Pro and Hicookie show off with, there isn't anything hugely special about it, in fact it's terrible for memory clocking, anything over ~1020 is unstable regardless of timings.
Yes, it is slightly more efficient for Super Pi and arguably PiFast, 95% of the difference seems to be the CPU microcode ignore thing which is available on the R3E now.

After about a few weeks on E22 I switched to retail bioses, F2-F4 and have been much happier since. It's a solid board all around, Bclk isn't at the same level as my E760 and there is a bit of latency from the NF200s but other than that, no real issues. Other thing worth mentioning is that it's a PITA to insulate, even with eraser.

It's replaced the E760 as my go to board when I want to test a chip if that says anything. Still there is no way I'd pay $624 for one, the difference just isn't there in my opinion.

Honest enough. Care to elaborate on what you like better about UD9 over the 760? Are you seeing higher mhz accross the board?

thanks for the input deux :) are the retail boards moddable for the extra power connectors or it just straight up lacks them

The difference is actually just the direction they are mounted, they are present on both. On retails they are 90 degree molex which allows them to be used with 4 cards... which is when you need them :) on my board using the power connector prevents anything other than a single slot card from going into the last slot

so after 10 months....only 33 boards were sold from newegg...LOL

and now its out of stock....

Holy crap you post a lot.

look at the topic...
