:thumbsup:



what means that?

Asus built their first versions serialed with 34,35 and 36M with Canterwood chipsets because of a shortage of Springdale chipsets. With a clever flashing of the bios you can unlock it's full Canterwood potential. Have I done it?? Nope...but when I sell this board it has alot of potential for someone who wishes to do the "magic" flash.

can tell me, what part of GPU is covered by Mach2 evap with your mouting ? (I know answer, but I wish you to answer on my question)

Almost all of the GPU is covered with my mounting, just a tad is not because of the interference of the caps at the bottom of the card by the AGP slot.

Hi Sandman

It's a very nice board with good performance per clock compared to nForce3 boards, BUT is not a true overclockers board. There is only a 1/6 AGP/PCI divider and to go higher than 240Mhz you really need an add in IDE controller to prevent HD corruption.

It has a ton of features with onboard LAN, sound etc.

And in my case resoldering those caps (3 little at bottom and one at left side) gaved a 100% evap contact with GPU.

I didnt know it!, thank you Randi

My P4P800 is a 35M Now I understand its superb performance. I already made the clever flash (BigToe's Dual BIOS Flash, right?)

Greetings.
