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

[quickcanuck]

My P35Pro died yesterday - first a Windows freeze, and when I powered down the board wouldn't power back up.

Pulled everything off the board, but the red LED that indicates power is on is flashing on and off and there's no LCD readout. Tried another PS but same flashing LED.

I suspect that the power regulator is gone, and the flashing LED is just the PS overcurrent protection going on and off.

Anyone seen anything like this - before the RMA goes in?

Well, tried to RMA this thing on a cross-ship but ABit sat on my request for 4 days before finally telling me "we don't have any"!

I need my system for my business, can't wait any longer - what can I buy that is similar to the P35 Pro that will work with my Intel CHR9 raid as is? (Can't get a new P35 Pro anywhere in Canada...)

How about IP35 Pro XE? I don't think there is much difference other than "official" 1600 FSB support. Although I'm not positive....

Is anyone using the IP35 PRO in an inverted case? I've got a Lian-Li A05B and I'd like to preform the bolt mod finally (been lazy).

Everyone saying that you should add a fan to the NB and PWM but in my case, the SB is at the top of the heat pipe, and its not exactly a beefy heatsink.

Has anyone done this and had success?

@Dephcon....I'm a complete n00b, lets get that out of the way...follow this, aBit thread...majority of the peps here helped me...was very patient with me...so I'm sure, they would gladly help you too.

I know little of the difference, hence the posting of screenshots...so if they tell me "up this" or "lower this" I do and post screenshots. Then they tell what to do next...so far no one told me to jump off a bridge

There's pics there too..

Goodluck...

Hi there, you certainly did and you're very welcome. Doing well thanks, hope you are. Very nice job on the system, looks great! Thank you for proving my point with your photos as well...Dephcon, click his link; there's an up-side-down IP35 Pro in action for you.

Would that be the NB or SB?

I've seen a couple posted that use inverted cases. They didn't report any problems, but they weren't from XS either. Unless you're really heating it up (i.e. Folding@Home with an overclocked Q6600 or similar) I wouldn't imagine it would be a problem.
