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

[Grinch]

This is my first Intel build and I had to apply a lot of pressure to get the cpu seated. It is in the right position it just took a lot of pressure. Is this normal?

not at all....the 2 notches should line up fine and fall into place....
the only part that should have some tension is the cpu lever that locks it into place..

Does anyone have the copy of the bootable USB image show on the post here

go here to download this easy to use HP utility..this is the one that i used to set up my USB thumb drive to work like a floppy but with mega storage.

thank you

it appears that Uguru cpu temp is a bit flaky...besides being about 3C lower at idle...it wouldn't rise when i stressing the cores...not until i open and closed Uguru did it show a reasonable temp...but not really reasonable; like 53-55C stresssing all 4 cores.

i am betting this bios will work better with a "G0" stepping cpu.

New beta bios

Loading it up tonight when I get home

Try the beta bios' at own risk, enjoy.

same as the one I linked to earlier. Seems good so far, but I don't know exactly what was fixed/added/changed.

If anyone finds detailed info on changes I'm sure we'd all like to know.

[fatal_error]

so... which version is the newest and i should try with my g0? so many different versions so confusing >.>

now, that is funny...abit was accused for a while for failing to do bios updates and it was that way for their QuadGT board...what-a-turnaround!

[Ace-a-Rue]

here is a sign where the they have tighten the latencies....before i was at 59-60 ns...look at it now...53 ns

[The Viper]

Heh Ace-a-Rue, with these lower latencies, r u any faster in Super PI?

[Ace-a-Rue]

in 1M, i went from 14 secs to 13.98 secs...a little gain...that is at 3704 Mhz using 5-5-5-30-40

[Masami]

Sorry guys, but this mobo give me a lot of problem with some software: Intel TAT, Core temp and now Sandra Sisoft.... Why???

[The Viper]

Holy Crap guys! This board is AWESOME!!! Compared to my ASUS P5N32 SLI Plus...Highest I could get with my previous mobo was 3.93GHz with 1.6 volts...
I decided just to go for a quick suicide run, just for the fun of it...and BAM 4.0Ghz with 1.58 volts...RAM DDR2 1068, 4-4-4-12...Havent stability tested yet

Oh yeah: and Im on the original BIOS, time for a quick Super PI run, will post back

[The Viper]

WOW, heres a quick Super PI run

[AstroCreep]

Again, TAT doesn't seem to work with this board.
As for the rest of your issues, I dunno. Have you tried to reset your CMOS? What about update your BIOS?

[The Viper]

heres a Bandwidth test...Have u guys ever seen it this high?

[MADMAX22]

I must say this new bios does improve your latency's a bit. I am at 41.1 in everest where I was at 56 or so before. Still max at 480fsb with my x3220 (B3). Seems to make this board pretty quick now, getting on toward the quadgt speeds.

It did screw my cpu temps though. Under phase where it read 0c before unless I went positive temps now it jsut reads 128c.

[Deanzo]

Hey MadMax

Before you installed beta 12, you said it would only show 0 when your sub zero, is that in the bios as well ?

[shimmishim]

in bios for me it shows N/A when under cold.

uguru shows 0Cs when under cold.

[Ace-a-Rue]

WOW, heres a quick Super PI run

REALLY, REALY NICE, VIPER!

[RLM]

Having the same problem with this B12 update as I did with the last B11.

All previous settings now no longer work, and can't boot/post over about 2.8 ghz.

(Note: Have been using ACE-A-Rue method, USB disk, extensions etc, leaving battery out and cmos flashing for about 5 minutes prior to first new boot)

Still trying to pin point why. Wonder if it's something to do with the new latencies mentioned and my Geil ram.

On the last B11, for some unknown reason it all started to work again and was able to have 420x9 set 1:1 3-3-3-8.

hey guys, i jus changed to this board after for some odd reason my ds3r died on me in 1week,

i have a question about the uguru feat. on this board. when you use this feature are you suppose leave everything in the bios stock? so should i change he vcore in bios and jus change he fsb with uguru?
