    Hmm, it needs vHTT and vAGP adjustments. The HTT speeds when OCing are below 1Ghz. I know it doesn't matter, but even the Abit AV8 can do 1.3Ghz HTT at least.

    I have hit 1100HTT without issue but I agree vHTT would be nice.

    just doesnt quite say it well enough. Just add 185 pins to that socket, and you've got the best motherboard ever.

    I am smelling tons of fried a64s with destroyed memory controllers, but of course this risk wont stop ya


    "but even the Abit AV8 can do 1.3Ghz HTT at least."


    I gained nothing from 750MHz and 1GHz HTT, not a single point in 3dmark so I dont see the deal here


    "I can feel my OCZ EB and Adata VItesta PC4000 gettin twitchy"


    3.14v or however much it overvolts gonna be enough? That ras latency of zero is killer, does it make a difference if its set to 5, 7, 10, 15 or whatever? and how is it possible to set it to zero? wow is there options to set the timing to like 0-0-0-0! latency free ram! even a ras-cas delay of 1 would really own!


    Those are some nice options! how high does the agp volts go to? is it true half multis dont work right and degrade performance? How much of a danger is 3.1x volts vdimm to the ondie controller? I was told keep it below 3 volts. Is this mobo faster than other nf3 250s MHz per MHz? like you get 250x10=2.5GHz on both with equal ram timings? Whats the expected price for such a fine mobo? $120? $150?

    you could set 1-1-1-0 if you wanted, of course this is a beta bios so these optioms may vanish from shipping versions.

    I set TRAS to 8 at ddr600 and it was unstable so went back to 0 for the screenies

    Memory ratio's
    auto
    9/10
    5/6
    3/4
    4/5
    2/3
    1/1

    from what I remember...im still waiting for the latest bios

    Must have this board. My OCZ 4200's are good to 305 1:1 with 3.0 to 3.1 volts. No Vmem mods to be found for my board yet!!!

    I havent tried the OCZ ddr booster on my Sig MSI board. yet. It works fine in my IC7, NF7, and im testing it on a IS7-e that i've had for a long time,

    It's working fine in the IS7 even though it's not on OCZ's list. I get better mem numbers with it than my IC7, this was my original IS7 and Pat/gat works great on it. The newer IS7 they seem to have disabled it somehow!!!


    Dont even ask where i've been!!!

    What sort of bugs does that board (keeping in mind its just a beta board)

    with all the bugs on me DFI lanparty nf 2 ultra rev a i have gone off DFI and took a vowl never to buy again.
    1 bug which wealy annoyed my was the cold boot issue.

    does this board have anything like that or did i take that vowl on vien

    I can't comment on bugs as that wouldn't be fair...there are some minor issues that bios should sort out.

    Regarding the boards overclocking its awesome, for me this is the NF3 250 to have at the mo, even the chaintech I have has to take a back seat to this board and the chaintech is a fine board.
