Do not even try the marvell driver's, I spent four day's to make them work so far I or any one who owen;s this board has made it work. I use the intel drivers it's not what I wanted but I got two of them for my twin's. I order two abit board's just so all the hard ware that I ordered can be used. Go on the asus forum's and you will see that just to many of us are having the same crap. I hope this helpschrisf6969 said:shit! I have one on the way, in fact I'll have it tomorrow.
I guess I better get my floppy ready, cause it sounds like this motherboard is going to need a few BIOS's to get it right.
chrisf6969 said:I played with it a little more last night.
I got it up to 3.95Ghz with default voltage, and then I got errors on one of the instances of Prime (the one using more ram), so I'm not sure if I need to change ram ratio or loosen timings, or if I need more juice on the CPU. And it was late so I didn't feel like testing every little thing.
I backed it down to 3.8Ghz for a few benchmarks.

I'm going to play with it some more tonight to see if I can get 4Ghz with out too much heat or effort.

Another thing... my Blu Orb II fan is supposed to operate at 1700 +- RPM but it always shows running at 1100RPM. Does the speed only kick up if the CPU gets over 60c or something?
steviep said:2 questions, though... how do I run 2 instances of Prime95? I can't seem to do it, even with the affinity option, so I let the 1 copy use both cores (if I double click it again, it just goes to the already-open instance). Second, what's a good memory:FSB ratio? Should I run my DDR2-667 at DDR2-667 (4:5 ratio with my 266fsb overclock) or should I run it at DDR2-533 with tighter timings (how tight can 5-5-5-10 go at a lower speed?) at 1:1? I'm not sure what's better in reality.
