Bios 703.

trza2k, have you tried the newer BIOSes?
I have tried 805 and the default i had. However the upgrade process may of been incorrect and the bios may of needed to be reset to default in the bios. I will try again tonight and document what i do so i clearly remember.
EDIT: I think i was supposed to do that last night but i had to watch Australia make it to the soccer worldcup after 31years!!!.
Keep us posted.Quote:

as much as i hate to have to run onboard sound with sli'd 512gtxs .. the dfi expert is just being a :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: with overclocking .. i would go back to my sli-dr if the pci-e slots arent so close
I can confirm that none of the bios available from the website will give more then 1.58volts. VERY VERY disappointing.
I tried different combinations and tried lowering the voltage and adding the 200mv but it seems to be capped off at 1.58volts.
Maybe this is the problem (if there is any?) with (some of?) the 1.01 boards and that's why they recalled them, if they really dif... or maybe not.
So the 200mv option works, when total vcore is less than 1.58v? IE if you select 1.3v + 200mv, it gives 1.5v?Quote:

Well i didnt get quite that low but tried 1.40,1.4125,1.45,1.50,1.55,1.56 and all would be capped @ 1.58volts.Quote:

that sucks, being someone that went through the "a bios revision will fix it" of the first a8n-sli, i am a little scared of the a8n32 now. I have been living with the dfi sli-dr for 8 months now and I feel it is completly unstable and am looking for a new motherboard. I thought the a8n32 was the answer i was looking for, and I hope it still is. Time will tellQuote:

Well, you know, if asus can't provide us with a bios, 3-4 SOMEONE's here I'm damn sure can create a modded bios for us. I ran a modded bios for the nforce2 asus board, don't see why we can't do the same for this one. You know what they say, if you don't like it, MOD IT.
thanks for the pics! i guess my 120mm tt heatsink will fit (same one you have) is there any way to get that fan that comes with the board to clip on that heatsink?Quote:
