    Abit confirmed that retail is black/blue already a week ago or so. Red/black ones were samples.

    Some more pics, gonna go testing now:

    Heh, not yet. No wonder tho, there's basicly no airflow at all on teh heatsinks. I forgot to mention, there was a problem with the 8 Pin 12V connector when setting this up. It just didn't fit, so I'm on 4 Pin now ...

    Pic quality is quite good considering it's from an N73

    Is the max vdimm 2.65v? Or is that just part of the list in the screenshot?

    Also, what memory settings controls are there beyond the initial 4 settings (4-4-4-12 for example)?

    Yes, 2,65V is the max VDIMM. Other Mem settings? None

    theteamaqua: Haven't found any problems yet.

    Hazzan: I'm on it Trying to find the max of my CPU, sucks to find out the max FSB with a 9x multi CPU. I'm on the stock BIOS, using my retail 6600.
    Good luck with your board

    I knew it was your N73 because I was looking through the window when you was taking the pics








    Or rather, Opera image properties brings up any embedded EXIF data...




    ...which shows you eventually pulled out your Canon Powershot A520 for the BIOS shots

    eiceman: I bought it for €215 from E-Bug.de, not in stock anymore tho.

    timko: Sneaky

    mykeos: I think that rather my CPU or RAM will be the wall. As the boar doesn't allow me to use 1:1 and I can't use any multi lower than 9x, I'm afraid I wont even hit 400

    Ok guys, here's my status ...

    This board is a charm to clock with 2 rather big exceptions:
    1.) I can't use 1:1 RAM divider. No matter which other settings I use, it wont boot. I'm forced to use 4:5.
    2.) I can't change multis in BIOS. It's possible with Crystal CPUID in Win, but still my RAM holds me back due to the not working divider.

    The maximum I can run now is about 9x370, with my RAM running at 920 or so with 2,3V. Anything above will crash sooner or later.

    A BIOS update might be able to fix this problems. Besides these issues, I really like this board.

    I guess it needs a bios update from Abit. 370 is such a common occurence on these 975 boards unless the chipset is manipulated. Hopefully someone at Abit can get jiggly with the bios code and open up the ram timings and fsb...

    I think you get me wrong buddy ... the RAM divider is holding me back. With me being forced to 4:5, my RAM maxes out at 370. At least it seems to be.
