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

[non]

have you tried flashing to the 16 beta bios?

yup, didnt work also. I was just thinking, maybe i should try what DJSUB suggest. Reflash it many times , with patience & hope of course

The only thing i havent done is what forsaken1 suggest. Thanx

[maxwedge]

But the problem is now bios doesnt detect my core temperature. Have u experience such things?

Try in the uguru software...go into set up and click all the default buttons for abit eq, apply and the ok. See if it works now.

[non]

just tried, and read as 0 by uguru. I'm beginning to think, is it uguru problem or bios? because in bios they read as N/A. I wonder how's the reading in coretemp....

[non]

solved, i just popped the battery & the temp returns...

Ace-a-Rue--> u're really an abit guru
DJSUB--->hehe..thanks god,dont need to reflash it many times
forsaken1-->thanx 4 the tip

i have an issue with the IP35-pro with my Team Xtreem PC2-8500 sticks.. it runs fine on my Infinity P965 board but is flaky with the IP35-Pro... What could be a possible work around?

what timings are you using and what memory speed are you running it at?

[fireice2]

5-5-5-15 subtimings are left at auto. will try manually setting the subtimings later.

8K????...wholly-mackerel!

I figured out, judging by the cfm's, that it would be LOUD!!!

That's why i asked.

[flopper]

Got my board today abit ip35-e.
not tried much, more of getting the game wanted to play with vista.
Booted up nicely though.

[Ace-a-Rue]

this is not to thwart you from posting here but thought you would want to know that there is a IP35-E thread if you care...again, not trying to send you away...good luck with the board!

Hi guys!

I have a stupid question, does the IP35-PRO board have any PCI-EX 2.0 slots? I´ve heard something about it but i´m not sure...

[BenchZowner]

Nope, there's no current P35 board with PCI Express 2.0 "slots"

[AstroCreep]

Right; I'm pretty sure the X38 is the only Intel chipset with PCIe 2.0 thus far.

Hi there,

Just read your review i.e. Abit IP35 PRO Review also (Abit IP35 Pro V Asus P5K3 Deluxe)

From those results both boards look just about equal in terms of performance, I think I will stick with the Abit IP35 PRO considering I only use one graphics card anyway & maybe wait till after christmas when the X48 chipset makes it's appearence - see what results bring then. Great review by the way, many thanks.

[BenchZowner]

Heh, thanks Nelly, glad you liked the review m8
For real-life, I'd stick with the IP35 Pro as well.

Hi... just joined the forum yesterday as my IP35 Pro is on its
way. A couple of questions.

1. Do I need to install the JMicron SATA driver? I am NOT
going to use RAID.

2. Do I need to power the PCI Express Auxillary 12v connector for my PCIexpress graphics card? The card says nothing about needing aux power, or do all PCIexpress cards need aux power? Thanks for any help.

[Atal]

so p35 is nowhere near an 8800 GT the huh?? or it is gonna be compatible only not full performance??

Erm who said that.

PCI Express 2.0 is backwards compatible with PCI Express 1.0
The performance of a 8800GT on a PCI Express 2.0 board will be exactly the same with a PCI Express 1.0 board.

Good to know. I am waiting for EVGA to release this monster mid-range card to replace my 7900GTO.

no, if you are not doing raid.

2. Do I need to power the PCI Express Auxillary 12v connector for my PCIexpress graphics card? The card says nothing about needing aux power, or do all PCIexpress cards need aux power? Thanks for any help.

refer to page 1-6 in your manual...i tried it and i found no difference for my setup in stability...it might make a difference if you have a large power draw card and it is NOT augmented with a additional molex plug on the card itself.

Glad to hear that!....but then why PCI-E 2 :S! they advertise it as pci-x 2 there has to be some sort of catch there,but thats just me hehe.....
