can anybody summarise what features this board has in the same sort of format as other dothan boards that are shown in the sticky "ct479 how to" thread. like this.....
P4GD1
- The Asus P4GD1/CT-497 experience (http://home.no.net/comerade/pc/p4gd1.html) by kamerat :)
- Change CPU Vid = No
- Change CPU Vcore = Yes
- Change CPU Multi = No
- Change FSB = Yes
- DDR voltage upto 2.9v
- FSB/DRAM - 4:5, 1:1, 3:2 all over (shows the DDR-frequency in BIOS)
- OCZ DDR Booster Works (tested 3,3V-3,4V)
- Clockgen (http://www.cpuid.org/cg.php?cgid=ICS954119) works
- Two helpful threads - 1 (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=72164) 2 (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=72112)
many thanks.... :banana:

AFAIK the product models end with -X are stripped cheap ones that ASUS made for low end markets, the P4GD1 would definitely be better if you can get it

But that is the problem, to get one. Even on ebay the people getting crazy and paying up to $260 for a new p4gd1.
Oh really, maybe I should sell mine, though it is not new.
I had both boards (still have P4gd1). Almost all features and bios options are pretty much the same. I think P4gd1 had extra memory divider, raid options. And ofourse no booster on p4gpl-x but mods work!
However, I still have not compared max overclock and FSB. I know that if you set 1.6V chipset voltage then real value is
1.67V on P4gpl-x
1.61V on P4gd1
Anyway chipset mod works on both boards

And that would help for...what? :)
I can't see any good reason..apart for getting better OC-choises in Bios.. to take the "risk" to flash a board with a bios for another board.
I see some people flashes P4P800-E boards with P4P800-SE Bios to get MP-adjustments in Bios.. something I would say is of some value...
ClockGen and Eist from Startup-folder does the same IMHO..

It works, you have to run afudos /i[insert bios name here] /n /pbnc to write the bootblock too. But no AI Booster support (it installs and then BSOD) and so on and so forth. Not worth it :)

yeh it does mate, but you're about 5 months too late.. lol
and the only reason i tried it is because some p4gpl-x's cannot adjust vcore
