No biters on the Matx board?
Nope, just speculation. It keeps talking about the merits of 775 and says something along the lines of "support for future processor technologies" all over their site and manual. Could be nothing or could also be marketese to get around the NDA. ;)Quote:

The fact that other boards are turning up to support Conroe, doesn't hurt. I would have jumped on this board if the PCI-E x1 slot was in a different place.
I read the non-SE was capped at like 240fsb, because ASUS couldn't get the PCI-E lock working! Come on! In this day and age? The non-SE was the closest I came to finding a potential Conroe ready board in stock...Quote:

Can someone explain me why getting 500mhz+ fsb is such a problem for intel??
Well this must be able to have the FSB at 266 ofc the PCI express would clock over to default again most likely anyway....
Another question,
Will this board support Conroe, I'm thinking of getting it.

because they are at 266Mhz stock. You ask about a 100% overclock.Quote:

Latoron, AW9D is going to be the replacement for that board, so I highly doubt it. That Gigabyte board you suggested earlier looks to be a bargain "budget" board. Do a search on the forum, some guy was doing over 400fsb on it. I just nabbed the last one for my parents last night! :toast: Which is probably why it's OOS... :D Lotsa other places to grab it though - here's one: http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?p=MB-...4eb73afc55fe77
how about a short conclusion:
Which one to choose and why......if you dont want to wait to long for a board to conroe E6600
DFI 975X/G
P5W DH Deluxe
Gigabyte p965 DS3
what is the best for OC for the ordinary oc guy....nothing ekstreme just air or perhaps watercooling and WHY do you consider it the best..
Sure you did, you just missed it. When the HT link is 5 that's 5 X 200 X 2 = 2GHz just 4 X 200 X 2 = 1600:)Quote:

It won't.Quote:

Thanks

There is a interesting reading about this
Here
AMD boards can do a 100% OC on FSB easily... :slapass:Quote:

The Asrock 775Dual-Vista is $59 and claims Conroe support... might make a good office board with an e6300.
Asrock made a good one for s939 ...but havent made very good boards for intel in its history....any test on oc potential for it ?
I wasnt able to get a good OC on it... Enough OC options on it but I coudln't get too far. I also didn't have a lot of time to really play around with it. Also 2 new bios' came out so that could've helped

So, is the P5W DH the winner so far as far as early adoption goes? I'm trying to pick out a board with Crossfire support. But from reading the posts about it, I've seen lots of required actions with modding the board and pulling chips out to flash them in other boards.:eek:
With overclocking options mentally set aside at the moment, is the board actually capable of running things without having to do something potentially stupid, or is waiting on something better the best option?
MY E6600 will come within two weeks and the P5W DH is still on the top of my list for now...

AMD is using integrated memory controllers. You'll want to set the HTT multiplier to get 1GHz or less HTT on AMD... Apples to oranges here. :slap:Quote:

pretty ok review...but anandtech isnt very good at oc....but at least they are open about it.
im looking for crossfire also and from what ive seen the p5w dh looks to be the best atm
