**Official ABIT IP-35 Pro Review/Overclock/Guide Thread**

Im still using the bios that came with the board, didnt want to change it in case the newer ones runs at 1333 strap

i understood the strap information is stored in the boot block area and that is not changed unless you specifically put in the "WB" switch for the flash...OR....unless the new bios is coded to flash that specific area.

Comparison between IP35 and 965-s same timings and tweaks running 1:1... the 965-s stays at 1066strap regardless of fsb, a board running 1333strap would have been atleast 10sec behind....

are you positive that the DFI board is not changing straps once passing a certain FSB, like the P5B did..same chipset!

Im pretty sure.... The only 2 P965 boards that do that is the Quad-GT and the dfi.... thats why at high fsb 1:1, they are only a lil slower than other boards using 2:3 divider ( eg 514x7 1:1 vs 400x 9 2:3 )... I had a commando before and at 500fsb its not even a close race vs the 965-s....

Commando vs 965-s... only 1M @500fsb... commando @ 1333strap... Its time small diff but in 1M thats huge....
