Nice work

What kind of FSB are you capable of on that mobo now?

I didn't have time to test it "deep".........But with a few tests I was able to accive about 370MHz out of it at 3:2 .....

.........as for the 5:4 this mobo ROCKS........




S-Sandra got crazy with the x14 multi and shows the Rams at 266MHz BUT they are at 256MHz........NOT bad for 5:4 and ABIT.....!......




BEST is that we can bench(with LN2 or Cascades) at about 5600 to 6000MHz with NO PROBLEM at 5:4....EVEN with a P4 3.6GHz with the x18 multi.....ALSO I encode NO problem over the 300MHz limit......At 320MHz and 5:4 I didn't have any lock-ups as for the AGP/PCI......NO problem at all......


SETTINGS for the 5:4 with BH-5 , BH-6 Ramchips.......

Vdimm = 3.35V
Vchip = 1.52V
Vfsb = 1.31V
VAGP = 1.95V(on choke - photo - )
N/B Strap CPU AS = PSB800
DRAM Ratio (CPU: DRAM) = 5:4
AGP/PCI = 76/38
PCI Latency = 64
Latencies(Cas) = 2 - 5 - 2 - 2
Delay Prior to Thermal = 32min
Game Accelerator = Street Racer
Refresh Cycle Time = Enhanced
Read Delay (tRD) = 6 clocks(for up to 320MHz) or 5 clocks(for up to 305MHz)
Read Delay Adjust (tRDA) = Enable
Command Per Clock (CPC) = Disable

Observations : AS8 doesn't really "like" the PAT = Enable and the CPC = Enable.....ONLY for lower frequencies
