313 MHz is old news. It was and still is limited by memories. We have obtained better memories since and have made benchmark runs at 350 MHz (DDR700) no problem, 1:1 with X3 HT multi. We do need to set the memory timings to some high numbers to keep the memories stable though. Like I've said before, don't discount what a low cost (but well designed) 4 layer reference board can do.

That would be pretty cool. Then I could have a built by ati computer :).Quote:

This is the board that uses an ULi M1573 Southbridge, and features: HD Audio, Gigabit LAN, and SATA NCQ. It appears Tul will also be using this very same Southbridge.

Tul and Jetway, these are 2 names I always associate with overclocking.
edit
Tul Corporation saw its graphics card shipments surge 70% on-year to four million units in 2004, making it the third-largest graphics card maker in Taiwan and ATI Technologies’ largest add-in-board client in the Taiwan channel. Company CEO Ted Chen said during an interview with DigiTimes that the company would focus its efforts on boosting profits in 2005 by ramping up the production of medium- and high-end graphics cards, including PCIe-compatible models. Excerpts of that interview are as follow.
Hahah.
Ah, the fortunate the soul. He is defacto forced to use all these boards and memory modules. :p:Quote:

It was only a few short years ago where people would mock the mere mention of names like MSI, EPOX, or even Chaintech. :)Quote:

I have a quick Q. I cant remember if this board will only be PCIE or will it have both PCIE and AGP versions. If it has both, I think I will be selling my neo2 soon.
Sell the neo2 anyway!
right on lol!
Im sorry m8....Im kinda limited in what i can say and some questions are hard to answer you know ;)Quote:

but anyway, does it come in agp, or pcie only? Cause im not about to sell my x800xt just to get a new mobo.
bigtoe
Benches with EB? ;)
Im back on NF4 at the mo...give me a day or so and i will post up.Quote:

are the nf4 limited by ram like the ati mobo?? i think these happens on both mobos not only on ati.
to the ati rep.
come one dude give us more info, we need it, agp or pci-e, which maker, can you get more than 1ghz from htt??.
p.d. not only bigtoe gets the mobos, is forced to play with them, he also gets paid for it and my guess is that one our of his work aint cheap at all.
i would love to see a dfi mobo with ati chipset and a dfi v card with ati gpu, come on, you guys should become partners (ati & dfi) :) :)
Well, I've already answered the AGP question a long time ago. In short, the answer is no, because there isn't a significant market for it.
As for which maker(s), that I can't tell you for obvious reasons. However, I can tell you that there will be a board of almost every type you can imagine, uATX, full ATX, etc. Overclocking will be available even on some uATX designs, I know that many have been asking about that.
As for >1GHz HT, there isn't a problem with that. ;) I'll let the attached capture speak for itself. It's run on our Bullhead reference board, FX55 CPU, dual channel Adata PC4800, 250 MHz HTT, X5 HT multi. Nominal voltage. Nothing special going on here. CPU is water cooled but that's because it's a demo machine and I don't have an air cooler handy, not that it would make any kind of a difference on air.
It will be interesting to see what a set of OCZ VX memories at ultra low latencies, HTT around 250-275MHz, X5 HT multi and a super cooled CPU would do in terms of system level performance. :)

Did anyone have this board ?
Grayskull may be list as "ATI Support" but he may want to look a career in ATI's marketing department. Using phrases like "low cost" and posting compelling screen shots he may have piqued a lot of interest and sold a lot of boards to XS members in the last 24 hours. I might be in for one regardless of how things play out with Nvidia's SLI. :D
I will have the board any day now. I'm not sure what oc options it has, but we'll see. MSI usually stands for m.ore s.hi+ i.ncoming, i doubt things will change.Quote:
