So today I'm testing this Biostar P45 board, just feeling it out, taking measurements and getting ready for some LN2 I'll be doing with it.
I figured I'd attempt to accomplish the same 24/7 settings as I run on the gold standard DFI UT P35. For now I just swapped boards in my air setup, so it should be a good comparison. The DFI will go back in as my 24/7 for sure though. Even out of the setup and sitting there, it still looks as badass and tempting as it did six months ago.
First thing I notice in Biostar bios (which is pretty good), is that gtl settings are way fewer and not as fine grain - only allow certain combinations.
Another annoyance was that I had to use a slipstreamed xp sp2 disc, whereas the DFI allowed the original xp and SP to be separate.
Edit - so far it's really easy to get 600+ FSB @ low voltages with the Biostar, but getting a good clock with tight timings is a pain. So I would say the DFI is still ahead so far in my comparison.
