    Great job on the manual, confusis! As far as accessing the BIOS, does the bug with it not being accessible with some processors still stand in the 1.0.6 firmware? I'm building my system with B3 stepping CPUs and it would be a hassle to have to get a different CPU just for accessing the BIOS setup.

    Not sure - I've only tested with b3's. I.E. can get into 1.0.6 BIOS setup with B3's I'll have to add screenshots of BIOS to the manual when I get mine running again.

    Re: manual
    If anyone has tested any CPUs or GPUs not listed in the manual, let me know with your results, and I will update the manual. Will also update it with the BIOS stepping issue. I should get a stack of 10 or so BIOS chips flashed with 1.0.6 and onsell them to folks at cost

    I spent some time poking around mouser and i think i bought the right plugs.. for the 3 bucks i dont mind being wrong. Ill find out when they get here.

    I do plan on modifying a psu and removing unneeded plugs, wires and what not. I'll post pictures as I go along.

    If any one looks for that connectors, Molex part no. 39-01-2160 - 16 pins and 39-01-2180 for 18 pins.

    Mouser - 16 pins = $1.17

    Mouser - 18 pins = $1.03

    it was like $5 shipping for the 2 plugs and 40 of the pins for them *I bought extra because I'm an idiot and will certainly ruin a few*
