Since i;ve used the MSi .. and i know the kinda bugs its likely to put out ... BUT once this bugger gets up and running ... its a sweet board
U cant go wrong with this board + a 3000 NC Core :) ... My Advice.
For a motherboard I would go with a Abit KV8 Pro, make sure its revision 1.1 cause they have working locks. It a great board for overclocking with stock air you with safe voltage probaubly bring it to 2.4ghz. I have a 3000+ OC to 2.68Ghz and went from 23fps to 30fps in the game I play.
thanks for the advice...I checked out the Abit site they have a Abit Kv8 pro and Abit Kv8 pro 3rd Eye...I don't see much differents between the two boards exept the 3rd eye is 10 bucks more (canadian)...since you said I should get the the 1.1 version could the 3rd eye = 1.1 ver...or I should just go with the Abit Kv8 pro and make the guy at the store open the box so I can find out the ver...thanks =].Quote:

I have seen a couple reviews with the 3rd Eye and the only difference is you get a couple more points benchmarks, yes they have AGP/PCI locks which would constitute them at being revision 1.1. If your going for records go with the 3rd Eye but if your just benchmarking for curiousity then just go with the regualr KV8 Pro, both boards overclock the same from what I read.
last thing I wanted to ask you about the K8V pro...is there any bios problems...and what version of bios should I have on it...also is there another version after rev 1.1?
cause I think I'm goin with the + 3000 nc cg core and the Abit K8V pro.
I have no bios problems with my rev. 1.1 KV8 Pro, other than bad temp readings. It shipped with the 1.5 bios and I'm still using it. Rev. 1.1 is still the latest. I love this board.
I'm using BIOS v1.6, always have to try the latest. KNW if you can and you havent already AMD is suppose to be having price drops the Oct. 15th so you may save a little money if you wish.
Just to post and let everyone know AMD released a DTR version of the 3700+. Ahhh the advantages of direct die cooling.

I also read that they might be coming out with a amd64 3000+ 939 512k (1.8ghz) at the same price as the 3000+ 754...I hope it's soon cuase dual channel would be nice =]...and of course in that case I'm goin with the AV8 =P.

I was able to use clock gen to set the cpu to that speed, then when I tried dropping the speed back down it crashed when I pushed set. I was never able to take it that high agian, it would always instantly crash if I tried setting it that high. The CPU is a 4/20 3700+. It is doing 2.8GHz completly stable though.
Nice craig, what kind of cooling?
General question for all: Whats the highest vcore an AMD can take without frying it? Just wondering I'm modifying my BIOS.
Here's a totally unstable max screenie from my week 33 FX53 + R507 prom cooling
http://home.exetel.com.au/codered/fx53/cpuz3256.jpg
Its a good chip ... ehh. This chip will do most benchies at 3127 MHz. See my sig for superpi, pifast and 3dmark01.
A R404a system. I always give my A64s 1.7V as if it was the "stock" voltage.Quote:

you could give it a little more voltage on water but not much. it will just overheat and crash if you give it too much.

Well i tried to get the file size down so you will have to expand it...
I looked everywhere for a revision # but couldnt find it. Here's a link 2 what i bought. Is it Bh-5?? Should i return it and get something else. I am pleased with the current performance but im wondering if i can get more. I see these other people with 800 dollar chips and they r only getting like 4-5 seconds difference in super pi than what i am getting with my 150 dollar chip so i am quite amazed.
