Asrock also has a 780a board.

M2N-SLI doesn't have a separate SB. It is integrated in the NB and it heats up considerably. Since the heatpipes won't work while upside-down (the motherboard manual states that), I suggest you...

Thanks for this post. I have the same motherboard and I was wondering if it could do such an overclock. What stepping is your Phenom?

Which would mean that it actually is not unlocked, wouldn't it? ;)

Still, I'd prefer it over the 5000+ BE since its larger cache makes a noticable impact.

Well, if you have both options, go for the 8-pin connection, obviously :)

With current Phenom power requirements, you'll need all the help you can get :) (I mean, in case of oc, of course)

That's not so surprising considering the configuration (where a better 300W PSU might suffice) :)

I am also interested in a quiet 650W-750W PSU, but I don't intend getting that kind of PSU to be...

I assume the same goes for the Chieftec Turbo 650W? Are the 650W CWTs from the older series with those sensitive caps?

It's basically the same PSU which Corsair sells as TX750 and Chieftec as Turbo 750W, all made by CWT.

BIOS 0504 (the HD issue should be sorted out) can be found here:

Thanks to jms45 from Asus forums for making it available...

Great news!! I thought they'll never sort it out. Please keep us posted and thanks!!

No, it's HD manufacturers. To them a kilo is 1000 but in a computer terminology, a kilo is 1024. So, 320 GBs should be 320 * 1024 *1024 *1024 bytes but in reality it's more like 320 * 1000 * 1000 *...

Ok, my 7900GT started artefacting today :mad: I'm willing to try anything so if anyone has or knows where could I find a matching BIOS, I'd be thankful.

The card was not overclocked (just once...

On my Xpertvision, the third resistor down from that long IC measures 2.62 kOhm. I penciled it down to 2.45 or so and on those points marked on the first page (GPU Vcore read and lower right of those...

Can anyone comment the chipset temperature, especially when overclocked? I've read several posts on asus forums where they said it gets too hot to touch. Thanks.
