And once again the mention of the SSB( super secret bios) rears its fairy head. As far as most of us at Xtreme are concerned it doesnt exist. There is no url for it no one who claims to have it wishes to prove it so we will treat it like a leprechaun. So many stories about them yet no proof they exist. Then it must be a fairy tale.Quote:

a litlle kestion,do bh5 like fatal1ty ????
i whant this board in portugal..
:D :D :D
post more results, i'm very curious to see the results.
bios ?? :banana:
hug'z
;)
well give the bios some time.
the shipping bios with my DFI wouldn't let me change the vdimm from 2.5 volts. pretty freaking weird....
do we have an abit insider who posts here who can quiet us down or what?
Don't know about BH5. Unlike some folks around here, I don't have a stack of RAM lying around to try. I am still getting things installed and will do some overclocking shortly.Quote:

and what about htt ???
i whant to buyt.. but :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
good luck.. make 3k :D
waiting for results .

Gitzum there is another post on the an8 with current issues he's found
1. no way to change cpu multi at this point in time.
2.uGuru does not work in windows.(he's using another proggy to OC in windows)
10
20
30
40
50
60
i dont think this number
stand for +0.0XX V inc :hehe:
there is no point to increase the RAM voltage at 0.01V inc. :confused:
so might be % or +0.XX V
ANy good luck & Happy Tweaking :toast:
I hope your right tic tac but the other post going on the an8 the user upped vdimm to 2.8 and turned ddr/ref voltage to +60 and got 2.85v max. Maybe the fatality board will yield higher? also on another note the an8 only goes up to 1.8 vcore in bios i noticed the fatality went to 1.85 vcore. As soon as i get the bios hes gonna try it in the an8 see if it works.Quote:

uGuru works for me. Doesn't have multiplier adjustments. Clocks the HTT, PCIe, and all the voltages, and six different fan headers.
I am unable to change multi in bios as well. Hopefully that is not the case with an FX cpu. Cause I got one comin! :confused:
I just report the multiplier issue to my friend in ABIT Indonesia. They will let Taiwan know :)Quote:

I would like to say that this is the fifth ABIT board I have had in the last couple years and it has been the easiest to get going. No problems getting it to install Window's or wondering if the PCI is locked or not.
So far I have been able to get my 3500+ upto 2550mhz with only 1.525v
This was not possible on my NEO2. No big deal for some of you but I am using all air cooling and my RAM tops out at around 255.
I am quite pleased with this board so far. I think I will probably wait till some time next week when my FX-55 shows up before I really see what she can do.
Oh, and the video card is spankin the eVGA 6800GT a had before too. Which happens to be for sale on E-Bay.
You gotta laugh at Abit folks. They are making gadgets. They put up this VDimm to 2.8V and then they are giving you this plastic assembly to cool memory. Cool from what, summer heat? :banana:
And this thing is $50 more expensive than DFI. You gotta be crazy to pay that much more for worse board.
This isn't the bash fatality AN8 thread this is fatality first look and the fact that it didnt arrive DOA is a plus which I can't say the same for other *cough* motherboards available right now. IF you wanna bash a brand or board start your own thread please.
yea really, lets not start a board war.
besides, everybody here should hope that the ABIT fatality is a great board. because that gives US more options to choose from, and it keeps the companies honest when there is competition out there.
i'm hoping that the "special" bios if it exists, gives it as many options for voltage as the DFI, and its great that they just have +voltage, instead of % increase.
man, the Nf7 just had the voltage you wanted to give it, pllain and simple, no +voltage of VID, and crap like that.
I've had several Abit boards and have loved them all, I hope this one turns out well as I'd like to see Abit make a real strong come back.
I'd really hate to see them lose too much market share and give up on us overclockers.
well ok but i sure as hell aint gonna pay more for a fatality board if it aint givin me results...i dont care who they name the board after...
How is differencs between Fatal1ty and regular AN8 ?
Write some infromation about volteges stability, and about fan noisylity ;)
It is still early for this board - there's no use in judging it harshly yet. The NF7 didn't get good until a couple of revisions, and the NEO2 I have now performs better than the one I got in August. Having said that, I still don't have much faith in ABIT right now, but we'll see :) The multiplier issue could easily be fixed with a BIOS update.
