The good son! New budget 8K9A actually rocks!

Very stable board running AXP 1600+ AGOIA partially unlocked(allows 10x multiplier sigh) at 10x190mhz=1900mhz aircooled rock solid. Agressive ram timings running ultra but set tras to 6. Corsair PC3200C2 512mb dimm. Has warm reboot issue but will probably resolve with bios update. Otherwise very solid board for cheap. Good sandra mem scores at 28xx/2680. 3DMark could use some tweaking though as I only got 10800 with GF4 TI4200 128mb @300/600. I have scored well into the high 11's with this card on 8K3A+ and same cpu at lower fsb but same mhz. But for $84 shipped at newegg.com not bad to replace a board I sold.

Good to hear. Hope it tweaks up as well as Jeff's 8K9A2+ did :)

well I will have to read up on that. I am pissing around with the damm 8K5A2+ too much to play with the 8K9A too much. I will probably need to vmodd the core on teh 9A though as it gives 2.0v max. :( But otherwise I am happy. Wish I would have gotten a 8K9A2+ instead of teh 8K5A2+
