Hi !
Just got my ABIT-KD7 few days ago !
Some things are unclear for me:
1. My Radeon9700 doenst get above FSB 175 - does make artefacts. (?!) I had an EpoX 8K3A before, where I could go up to 195MHz until the Radeon was on its end.
2. I cant set CPU Decode to Fast above ~150MHz FSB (with Corsair DDR400 CL2 v.1.1)
I installed my old ATI PCI Graphiccard and got this @ 210FSB Turbo Timings (including 1 Command Rate):

Not too bad, i think...
When i compare the 3DMark Score of Abit ~ Epox, the Abit scales much better... even with 20MHz lower FSB and 100MHz lower CPU, the Difference between these Boards are loosy 200 3DMarks...
I think the epox set some agp/pci timings lower on higher fsbĀ“s... but iĀ“ve seen much scores on madonion, with the r9700 & FSB > 200... whats wrong ?!
I also see, mrice got CPU Fast Command on 217FSB !
dunno whats wrong with my board :/
