Didn't see a thread about this so I created one.

There are some reviews on the internet, but they're mixed regarding its OC capability. One says it can only do 150MHz BCLK while the other says it can do a much more believable 200MHz+.

This thread says the Flaming Blade can do 208MHz.

I can't find it for sale anywhere though. Can anyone comment on performance, availability in the US, and pricing?

i'm on the test with this board already, but sadly my CPU is a nightmare :(... so i'm waiting for i920 D0 next week and testing the Flaming Blade again.

The Flaming Blade is finally available on Newegg!

Unfortunately it's $180 + shipping, wtf? Wasn't this supposed to be around $140 per European pricing?

just for a quick installation test, but couldn't made it work with more than 170 with a 920 D0 witch is fine working 205 with my "****" *** DLX. maybe there is my mistake or the bios that i use is wrong but there a little info for this mobo so i can do anything. but truetly what can i expect from a mobo that is so cheap ( 170mhz is not that bad ).
