I just want to check how far this mobo can run on all stock settings without any modification and the baby hits 266FSB without any problem. Nope, I didn't set the PCIe to 100, just auto. I did set the PCI to 33Mhz though, and just ensure that ram ratio is 1:1 and it's set on SPD. With all things auto, including vDimm, vCore, vAGP/vChipset, I just pushed it to 266Mhz ...no PCIe computation, just plain old auto settings =)...

Unbelivable!

Whats the rev on the board? Maybe check in CPU-Z...

Booting at 266FSB?

Must be a cherry board of some kind

Sweet, can't wait for my board to come through, maybe I'll be lucky too

Yep, booting at 266FSB ...Unfortunately, I can't check the rev physically for now as I already sold the mobo awhile ago hahaha , but hey, the CPU-Z shows no major revision, just NB and SB revs. I am using the latest BIOS and it works flawlessly with Pentium M 730 as well =) (Validated CPU-Z).

The only quirk I found with the mobo is that it can't do CL2-2-2-x, but it can do CL2-3-3-6 at FSB200-230, my RAM is tested to run CL2-2-2-x at least within that range on i865PE (Asus P4P800, MSI 865Neo2-Platinum) and i875 (Asus P4C800-E Deluxe).

I know the clock is nothing to brag about, but I know you guys are targetting to use it with some Dothan loving anyway, so I focus on the FSB rather than CPU clockage
