For the most part, let's start this show as an appreciation thread. After first saying that they wouldn't support the low end boards, Gigabyte has given us M-ATX users 1:1 & 1:2 Ratios for 1066 CPUs with F4a. What's this mean? Well, no more uber ram for clocking, and priming off 457x7 to replace 400x8 now :D

That's great. I wish they do the same for FSB800 CPUs already.


PS. You could have posted in the old G33M-DS2R thread (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=143854).

[K.I.T.T.]

The new Asus P5K-VM and this DS2R are pretty nice mATX boards...leagues ahead of those based on the 965G chipset...

The only thing that's putting me off is that the ASUS gives you 'only' 2.1v for the RAM and this, 2.2v. I know these aren't meant for hardcore clockers, but 2.4v without having to resort to a volt-mod would have been great...my TeamGroup needs 2.25v for 1000 MHz 4-4-4-8 :(

Will any soon uATX boards be using the new G35 chipset (as opposed to G33)?

that's not a problem for crucial ballistix 5300 CL3!
all my 4 sticks 1Gb handle 1125Mhz @2.10v:
