I know.. I was to cheap to buy one...My office has been pretty nice to me lately..free Phenom II, free PSU..I am still trying to get them to give me a Dual socket Shangai setup. I sound greety ... :p: I just loaded Windows 7 and am doin drivers now. I am curios to see RAR and other stuff that was slower on vista then on XP.
Without me having to scan sig lines...are any of you running 8 gig on this board with vista 64 bit?
If so, any issues with it, is it necessary (loaded question I know), did your timings have to slow down to get 8 to run smoothly?
I have the Mushkin Redline 8000 and was just 'thinking' of maybe getting another 2x2 set and was curious of possible issues or benefits I would gain.
Thanks
might have been ur nb biting the dust...
today i put my new waterblocks on the board (mosfets,nb and sb). when i removed the heatpipe assembly, i was like "hmm.. why did they put paste on the nb and only a thermalpad on the sb??". when i tried to clean the nb from the "paste" i realized that it wasnīt paste. there was also a thermalpad on the nb, but that thing melted away. it was hard to get off (using 94% ethyl alcohol) but it worked. iīm glad i got rid of that heatpipe thing before my board takes the same route as yours did.
there u go

When the replacement comes in, I am going to make sure everything is good..and cooled well. I want to push this chip hard. I am playing it safe on the MA790GP-DS4H right now.. 1.48 is as high as I have pushed the V's. abd right now it is all stock but the HT and NB, running comparisons for when NDA lifts...tho my results will be obsolete with Honda guy posting numbers etc..LOL
can someone tell which bios allows you to set the lanes on the pci-express slots.
in the maul t state you change all four slots from 1x,2x,4x,8x,16x mode ??? but it shows a list of port#02-12 features.
i don't have this with bios 602.
Does anyone know of a place that sells the heatpipe assembly for these boards? or can you get them from asus?
why would u like to buy that heatpipe thing? afaik u canīt buy it seperately...
edit:
thanks raiderman.. i had one or two of these during the operation http://www.rothaus.de/img/02biere/02_tannenz_300.JPG
:o Is that an Eheim 1046 or 1048? How does it perform? I have a 1046 but too afraid to use it, didn't think it had enough head pressure for modern waterblocks, but if it can pump through an EK supreme and all those other blocks, it can pump throguh anything! What rad you using?
Sorry for OT...
itīs an eheim hpps i.
a pump made for industrial purposes. pumps the water up to 3.1m high.
iīm using a 3x120mm rad. my water temps in the reservoir at idle are around 35°C with the fans blowing at 1200rpm. didnīt get to playing some cod5 yet to warm up the water. but i guess iīll reach 50°C then. maybe itīs time for a rad upgrade ;)
Still waiting for someone to confirm which bios is the best...its been 3 days since I post this question:shakes: Since I just got the mobo 4-5 days ago I really dont have any idea on bios??:shrug:
