Guys submit any info on New Beta please! NIC slow downs/latency on LAN performance degradation if any, or any kind of quirks in new beta also see if the SB600 gives better performance then previous version naturally.

Will try it aprx. on the weekend. You saw that USB vs. power consumption issue i had bro?
Puttin an 4GB USB stick in that mobo results in ~20-30W AC higher power consumption idling (tried only the stable bios from jan). Under load the difference is ~5W. Stick requires ~3W AC in the M3A and ~1-2W in the P5K-E so something is odd here.
Whats up justapost? Hey are you running Raid or single drive in you're system?
Read that PCI-E Issue post that I linked on the forum here something aint right with all of that! I was gone for a month as you fellas know and had to reinstall windows prior to coming on line when I got my system set up finally and had installed the 1/30/08 Bios 3-4 days before I had moved so didn't really get a chance to evaluate it and oddly enough I get the X8 PCI-E Bandwith allocation on top slotvery weird and don't really know if its intertwined with 1/30/2008 Bios or not yet????

Fortunately i'm testing with two WD 500GB Re HD's in Raid0 atm and benched the hd's already with the stable bios. Will try it with the beta on the weekend.
BTW, Raid0 is faster that on the P5K-E with the same HD's.
U posted that here or in your personal review thread?
