    I'm looking very hard at this build for a small gaming center that will be hooked up to my TV for dedicated 720p play. I've already got 4 gigs of ram to go with it and a nice PSU. I still need to decide on graphics,CPU and case though. I'm currently hung up on the e6550 and as for graphics and case, I still have no clue.

    i did fsb 520 on this board:

    http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=543949

    currently running e8400 @ 4Gh (445 fsb) with vcore set on auto... so as far as fsb overclocking is concerned, it should do ok.

    it might need vcore mod though; there was one on hardforums somewhere.

    I bought this board and really like it so far. I've had it ~1 month and have had zero issues with it. I plan on OCing it in the future, but right now I'm busy with other things.

    The reviews at newegg are not very good, but they are good across the net generally. So far this definitely seems to be a rockin' little board.....

    Asus 8800GT
    Seagate 7200.11 500GB x2
    Corsair 620HX
    Bench-top style on stock air atm. Will setup in WC case when I get done modding it. WC cpu and NB--maybe vid card later.....

    Very Happy with this setup so far......

    Max screen on air (SI-128SE), 8 * 590. Not bad for a matx board, I love it!

You would probably do well with it, but i would have to ask you what you are looking for getting a IGP u-ATX board with a top of the line chip.

    Why not get something more sensible for that CPU that has proper high quality power delivery and a full set of overclocking options such as GTL tuning and tRD settings?
    A waste eh?

    How long have You had the MB? You may just need to put the E6000 back long enough to update the bios.....

    Well, i got my E8400 running flawlessly on this board, even with default bios (0301). Now i am on 0405 and have lots of issues with standby/resume. Actually, only with resume... as my computer simply doesn't want to get out from standby state Also, another bad issue is the fan controlling method. On every fan profiles, i get either 3000 RPM (maximum speed - too noisy), either 350-400 RPM (too low, even get fan errors).... It's just strange...

    Btw, i've noticed they released Beta Bios 0503 in here: http://support.asus.com/download/dow...-VM%20HDMI Any news about what's fixed ? Hopefully the standby and cooling options...

    i was trying to hunt down 0502 bios - it was the one where they fixed the sleep issue.

    hopefully 0503 has those fixes in it as well. ppl seem to have good luck with it:

    I used FSB800 and 1:2 ratio (a.k.a. FSB at 800 and RAM at 800) as well as 1:3 ratio (a.k.a. FSB at 800 and RAM at 1200) with no problem at all,
    Motherboard: ASUS P5Q
    CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 @ 3.20GHz (1.07v vCore! )
    RAM: 2GB Kingston HyperX 800MHz
    GPU: MSI Radeon HD 4870 @ 780/1000 (default)
