The Multiplier Factor option controls the base CPU ratio, but has no effect for multiplier locked CPUs.
Having used Asus, DFI, Gigabyte, MSI etc. there is no doubt in my mind that uGuru is the best hardware monitor/fan control solution offered by any of the main mobo manufacturers.The richness of the bios settings, say compared to a Gigabyte, was covered well in the article but perhaps deserved a comment in the conclusion, its the richest in temp monitoring/alarms and fan settings is the best I have ever seen. The fan control, temp, and GTL level settings not to mention actually showing (gasp) current voltages and the ability to set alarms/actions based on those voltages make the Gigabyte bios look like a toy for a developmentally challenged 2 year old.
Unless [H] had a bad board (& tbh several of their previous review ocs of abits have fallen well below what was the norm in the user community so imo it's unlikely that they've all been bad boards) the IP35 Pro is known to be capable of considerably more than 450fsb.and I wonder if that contributed to the fairly poor max FSB obtained ( I quess the quad probally had more to do with it, but its still cheesy).
just wanted to point out that this motherboard is DDR2 based, and not DDR3 as is stated in the review about 20 times.
Also i must say that although it was a decent attempt at a review it did fall short of [H]'s usual review standards.

i just ordered a IP35-E,. the low end $114 version i dont need all the special crap, hope it works out well for my 4400

One of the guys I work with bought that model. He doesn't know much about overclocking, but all he had to do was set the FSB to 400MHz, manually set the CPU voltage up a little, and he was running at 3.2GHz. No brainer. It's been a couple months now and he hasn't had any issues. He's got it in an Antec 900 he bought at the same time.
Interesting. Many of the tracks on Zeitgeist are clipped quite badly, with some tracks having easily noticeable pops and clicks. Probably not the ideal album to use for audio testing.Audio playback of the selected album was enjoyable, with no distortion detected at all during the experience.
Yip similar story here, threw up the FSB to 333MHz and 3.0GHz was there, no voltage adjustment required. (originally failed Prime 95 after 2 hours but I had C1E and EIST enabled - DOH! Sorted that and now its stable)
if you fit the provided PCI slot backplate you'll get 1394 at the back & your extra 2 USB ports there.2. 1394 placement's poor...why not on the I/O backplate? How bout 2 more USB back there too?
more like 700Mb/s versus 900Mb/s assuming of course that the RAID can provide that.3. When pulling to/from a fast raid array on a good gige switch, does the Realtek pci based nic's performance really matter compared to some of the Marvell or Intel pcie based nics? Are we talking about 70MB/Sec vs 100MB/Sec?
No, I said 700Mb/s which is ~87MB/s.700MB? That seems kinda high for 1000Mbps, no? Theoretical max for Gige should be 120MB/Sec.
