Thanks for the info, whats the OVP set to on the Asus?
What kinda ram does the board like? I think EB worked fine on it? But EB needs 3.2v+ to really shine, so the OVP would be an issue...

OVP is 3.15 Last I heard. I would say just about any non BH5/EB ram would be perfect on this baord.

But honestly I beleive TCCD is the best bang for the buck availible right now. 300 HTT @ 2.5-3-7 is really something, I still remember pentium people braggin about 300 3-4-4-8 (hehe)

Personally, I'd rather do 3-2-2-10 @ 270 with EB or ballistix @ 3.5v if I have to

There are mixed reviews of the asus board though. I've seen people give up on it and sell their boards for the MSI.

Yeah I've heard of the same thing with people not liking the ASUS board I don't know why because it was by far the easiest A64 board I used. It makes sense though if so many people liked the K8N NEO2 and I hated it, it can work the other way aswell.

It comes down to what you use it for and personal preference. I prefer the ASUS.

Also 3-2-2-10 @ 3.5V seems rediculous you can more than likely get that with BH5 @ 2-2-2-5 @ 3.4V (or atleast I was able to on the K8N PRo with kyosen's vdimm bypass)

Well 256mb BH5 @ 270 maybe, but 512mb probably won't do 270 without like 4v, lol
