Need a lot of storage because I want to edit and store HD camcorder video. May also try a mild overclock whatever I can get on stock cooler , add another fan and add more memory once I have a working baseline system. Since I wasnt planning on running series etc video card s , hadn't thought power would be a problem or considered the initial draw. Will upgrade PSU if need be. Thanks for the input. Update: Installed a new Abit Pro P35 board. Fixed the problem, so the issue was indeed with the Asus motherboard.
Some things I like better about the Abit Pro layout. But overall, I'd say the Asus was a bit easier to work on; easier access. Unless you have small hands, connect the SATA cables to the motherboard before putting it in the case.

I just noticed in your sig that you have your RAM operating at timings with 2. Did you just manually set that voltage or was it necessary to keep your RAM stable?
Since you are operating your RAM below stock speed, you will probably only need 1. Jun 21, 9, 30 BonzaiDuck Lifer. Jun 30, 15, 1, I've been "OC'ing" for nearly 4 years, but in many ways feel like a noob. I keep learning "new stuff.
Today I was checking some forum posts by people who'd overclocked the B3 stepping with air-cooling. Some had pushed the Vcore to 1. I can't be sure that their speed achievements would stand up for at least a half a day under PRIME95 testing, and I wouldn't push my vCore that high unless I had money to burn and wanted to take the time and trouble to do more frequent component replacements. My opinion about the memory settings follows thus: if you're over-clocking, you might as well set it immediately to just below the warranty limit, maybe leaving some wiggle room of a couple notches.
Your voltage setting thus far shows how much better the G0 stepping can be, and you have plenty of wiggle room their -- you shouldn't worry about punching it up to just above 1. I've chosen to stick with for now, and I'm running high-performance Crucials way under stock-rated Mhz specs, but with really tight latencies. As I said on another post in a different forum -- it seems pretty snappy.
And especially, for reducing the bank-cycle-time tRC from Auto stock value of 21 to a fixed value of I may experiment with running the RAMs asynchronously at higher speeds and looser timings, and people can feel free to comment on my Everest bench results -- let me know if something else would work better. Built in sound does Dolby Digital just fine.
Haven't tried OC'ing yet. The boot up floppy had to be manually modified for XP to read the iastor. This really is inexcusable as I spent 8 hours trying to get past a problem that should have taken five minutes on a Saturday. How hard would that be to fix for your customers, ASUS? Overall Review: Some have complained of big video cards blocking SATA slots but this was not a problem for me even with my gigantic Radeon I did not have problems with video card hitting RAM slots either.
Pretty good for overclocking. SATA ports might be blocked by big nvidia cards, but my pny gts g92 fit. Cons: Most of the software that comes with this is bloatware.
The only software of value might be the audio utilities. Do a youtube search for this board for a great review. Sold by: Newegg Shipped by Newegg. This item is currently out of stock and it may or may not be restocked.
Out of Stock. Add To Wish List. Are you an E-Blast Insider? Get Educated. William S. Verified Owner. Asus is Back! Did you? Report Post. Yup as in, yes, it can do SLI? If so, great, thanks! Shaun - that 'Yup' was about as useful as tits on a dustbin.
Why did you even bother to answer him? No it is a crossfire board, which as I'm sure you know is ATI's dual graphics card impementation. It cannot do SLI. I have a friend who uses an asus striker extreme sli who has two X in crossfire. Just get the sli bridge n ur ready for sli. This is my experience. That board is crossfire only. Just get the sli bridge n ur ready for sli No. In short, this is an X48 chipset, and to have SLI you need more than just a bridge - you need an nvidia chipset like your friends i.
Crossfire works on most things inc. Off topic but, why would you join and post a response on an SLI forum not knowing even the basics?
