I think the thermal paste will work immediately without any need to wait for fitting with the processor.

AI7 mosfet is hotter,can't the mosfet area be cool down? It's a good overclocking mobo. P4C800 non E version can clock but is not as good as the E version.

Should have a bit different in o/c capabilities,settings might be more compare to E and non-E version. E is the enhanced version from Asus.

@alex,o/c at your 533FSB proc? Don't expect much o/c from it but with 2-3MHz FSB increase only seems is a very limited performance to be clocked.

@V12Kompressor,my RAM is from Infeneon and it's a DDR333 only. 2*256MB.

Wah,so many posts already after away for few days. 7600GS has shader 3.0 supported,keep that card with you. X800 is an old card.

@Alexlee,update your specs at page 1.

Alex,Edit done!

@V12Kompressor, o/c is not that hard. Just need to push a bit on the FSB setting and you will get the proc and ram boost. A small margin boost like kahloon said will not harm the board itself.

No problem,go ahead.Even you have 256MB is enough.

@V12Kompressor,are you sure P4P800-X has only 2 slots?

@alex,the audio is sux. Even the Creative SB Live is better than it.

PC thread becomes car's discussion? Don't don't,you all better stick back to S478 discussion.

@ravewar,later mod comes to kacau then not so good already. Better keep back to topic discussion,don't go too far.

Best mobo? Now you can't get them even you are interested to grab. I have long time not seeing people letting go high end mobo here already.

@ravewar,bigger board is better.

The board sure will fit in your casing one as long as ur casing is non small atx case.

Haha,i know that the slots are different on board. Design maybe will be cheaper cause lesser features.

Spotted some nice mobos there.

How much you bought the 3.2GHz ? I think should be around RM200 right?

Putting DDR3 inside? Lol

The mobo did not indicated a sound when you turned on your PC ?
