Great to see, that EIST works!

PM is on it´s way!

Have you allready tried to controll it for example with rmclock?

Would be interesting to see, if VCore can controlled too.

May be Aopen thinks that if you can afford a $300 MB, you can also afford a high performence raid card

So that means the FSB is a board problem? Is there any other board coming soon?

I am still confused about all this. I had 3 Yonahs ( 4 + 8 stepping ) all hit the same 250FSB wall - which made to pretty sure it was the board. Finally Yonah # 4 hit the FSB wall at 219 FSB - so I guess the first three were just random luck. Now my Merom is hitting only 240 ( obviously with low multi )

Now I have a strong feeling is only CPU related.

MAYBE it's also a multi problem with ES of Dothan / Yonah / Merom cpus

There was already a clock Problem on the 780 ES when a lower multi was run - so looks like across the range of mobiles there is something bugging us.

I still haven't had enough time to properly run the Aopen board and Yonahs - but hopefully there is somewhere a trick to get by...

You got Merom in there :cool: Give some results @ 240, will ya? Vs Yonah @ same clocks, preferably.

there are at least 5 people here claiming to have working AOpen/Merom combos @fsb 240 or more and no benches ?

hmmmmm strange ... :confused: :confused: :confused:
