    8RGA+.... has Vdd in BIOS.... and It's working :)

    Yep.... got one sample board here - rev 0.6

    Comparing to 8RDA+:

    - Different MOSFETs - smaller ones
    - HS on the NorthBridge
    - Has Vdd in BIOS - 1.6V/1.8V/2.0V
    - got different voltage regulation - draws power from +12V, got the 4pin ATX+ P4 connector

    This is for now, will tell more tomorrow

    IWill?!?

    EPoX makes 100% it's boards........ that IWill thing is a nonsense....

    Ether IWill or FIC - this is stupid

    EPoX makes those boards for them or for FIC - EPoX makes them, not FIC

    2.0v huh.......... cant wait to see the difference on the board itself..... supposedly it takes some hardware workarounds, cuz if it was just the bios Modbin would take care of that.

    Ah round 2 boards starting to show up . I think they might be getting worried about the kt400a might put the revision 1 nforce2 boards to shame. I'm still waiting on a decent board that can do 2v without any mods and at least 233fsb.

    You may be waiting awhile for at least 233 fsb........ alot of the ram modules can't even do that consistently at decent timings.

    I hear ya there mang.

    Supposedly the board is setup differently to allow adjustment of VDD in the bios DH(hardware)... that's what I want to see.

    Boy your quick had to get one of my kids some cookies, spaced on the manufacturer, fixed it in one minute or so.

    Wasn't meant as flame on Epox, love their boards. Just wondering if I could save a buck or two.

    An 8RDA+ version 2 with VDD voltage adjustments would be great!

    I don't need onboard GFX.

    well it's 1:1 with the 8RDA/+ - 2.50/2.63/2.77/2.90

    The good thing is that it's not undervolting - "2.50V" ~ 2.51V; "2.63V" ~ 2.63; "2.77V" ~ 2.77; "2.90V" ~ 2.91V
