@ Fumiya:
Yes, that is correct. Your PCI/PCI-Ex busspeeds should track correct at 100, 133, and 200fsb. At least this is the "Official" speeds these boards support, but it might also be correct at 166mHz FSB.
Can someone with a good overcloking Dothan check it out for us, please?
Thanx guys.

What's your SuperPI like? And what GFX you running at these speeds? Surely those speeds indicators for PCI/PCI-Ex are wrong?
hehe...imagine PCI-Ex GFX running at 180+ mHz....ouch....
edit: Well, new P4GD1 on it's way....supplier tested my old mobo, and verified it was buggered. PCI-Ex did not initialize for them either, they tried a few ATI and nVidias....
So, I should have it by Friday eve, and be able to post at least some prelim test results again, and test the board thoroughly.
Will keep you posted.
Br,
MrBean.
Hey MrBean, nice to hear that it was just a single buggy board for you, I hope you'll enjoy the Dothan power soon with a new one :D
Yes . If i unrdestood MrBeam has some decent cooling for Dotahn . We will see some good benchs soon . Keep postin MrBean .Quote:

Also ordered a new PC65 silver Lian-Li box, will arrive same time. Will take 2 hours or so to fit it to 2nd edition VapoLS, would look quite nice. My previous LS was fitted with black original Prommie/Lian-Li box, looked very nice indeed.
This time opted for silver, just to be different.
Just now to figure out a failsafe/good way to mount Evap on the Dothan. I already scavenged a decent heatspreader from an old (working) 2.4B, will get some RTV silicon tomorrow, lap the heatspreader, and do a testrun on air.
After that, and board verified ok, will I use liberal amounts of di-electric grease to protect board/socket/cpu against condensation. Never had any issues, even in the very humid coastal town where I live, Durban. Been using Vapos for the last 3 years, so quite skilled with them by now.
But, yes, hold thumbs, I will report back, hopefully we can hit 15x200 minimum. That would be a good starting point.
Any ideas and input from you guys would be appreciated ;)

I'm not sure about PCI speeds but soundz unreal 4 me.

Albatron or Gigabyte are the same(520/1420 @ stock air) and runnin SLI with both
Hello Guys,
Ok, posted this in mrlobber's thread as well.....but, here goes:
Received my new P4GD1 board, and Li-Li PC65 case to go with my VapoLS...
Typing this on the new board, with 7800GTX up and running, board came with Bios1002, had to flash to 1005 using Afudos and old P4 2.4B cpu.
Used PCI card to test at first, did a complete Bios reset after the flash, eg. removing power cord, changing jumper to pins 2-3 and removing battery.
After the procedure, mounted new 7800GTX, and P-M 760, and yeay....she boots :)
Did about 10 resets, from POST, from within Windows, not one problem to initialize 7800. I am quite happy, and will keep the system on air for the next few days, while I mount the Lian-Li PC65 case to the VapoLS, and sort out the mounting mechanism for the Vapo Evap.
Going to be fun, but I cannot wait to see what this cpu can do at 3000mHz. hehe.....
Nice MrBean . I`m glad to hear it is working now . Have you got some results on air ? :)
Got my setup working as well. Bought a real cheap 6600GT from Galaxy which is fine for my needs (Quake3).
Now I need to figure out this PCI-E freq thing. So far I use 115MHz @ 1.6 chipset voltage which allows me to run 220x12.
Weird thing is I got all the vcore I want. The board seems to overvolt by 0.1 or so :shrug:
Currently I run it set to 1.50 in bios and get 1.61 in CPU-Z and 1.60 i bios...
Feels bad after reading this post, I like to OC without volt raise but - my 740 cannot boot into windows @ 200x13 if not raise the voltage
This gives me no choice but to OC it hard cuz P4GD1 can't change multi in BIOS, what a crap
I think we should write complain mails to ASUS to force them come up with a BIOS supports at least multi change :slapass:
