I have abit Fatal1ty AN8 Sli so far it hasn't done any good to me, wasting my expensive rams, cant even ran it at spec speed. Had 1GB pc4000 ocz gold Vx now I got OCZ 2GB pc 4000 gold. Doesnt even run stable at 250.
My an8sli is doing just fine, did take a bit of tweaking but no more than any other enthusiast board. 3500 claw 300*9 mem 1/1 2.5,4,3,7 2t. Only complaint is the 2t timing but I think it is due to my claw's mem controller.
2T problem is with venice , winchester and SD too.....

Im having strange problems with my an8 ultra. I flashed to bios 17 and when i completely power down the computer via the correct method it wont complete the post when i power it back on. I have to reset the cmos and retweak the bios. Other than that the thing is perfectly stable oc'ed both prime and memtest wich i let run all day. Not sure if this is a bad bios chip? I ordered another just incase.

LInk from abit forum with a list of problems
http://forum.abit-usa.com/showthread...8&page=1&pp=10
2t is a problem with certain types of memory not venice/winchester/and sandiego. I run 1t with both 2x512mb ram in one board and 2x1 gig of ram in another..................In fact i have never run into a 2t problem except with crucial ballistix pc 4000 on this board but then again it didn't like the memory at all much less 1t.Quote:

if they want to stay in business(financial problems) they need to fix the problems :DQuote:

glad i got rid of mine. this review shows exactly why this board sucked!
Im not having hardly any probs (except teh 2t thing) with the board like what they are complaining about. Im running 340htt and 270+mhz on the ram and 2700 mhz on my processor. Im incredible happy with it.Quote:
