@antonio, i think i want that mobo ...ROG rocks Btw don't mind if i ask, how do one knows if both cores are healthy or not? using Phenom X2 555BE here. yesterday tried with older version linx, but it stop awhile (was doing something that time)

Guys, MA770T-UD3P is suppose to be running SB710 right? currently my mobo is unable to use AHCI suddenly and then when used cpuz to check, it says ID439D (google gave me sb750 also) does this mean my mobo has some issue? Just reformated and it's still the same. Swap sata port also and it's the same

Well the damn thing is i tried both (set back to native ide and ahci) and still unable to get that AHCI option back (installed windows 7 with AHCI enabled)

Found the culprit (BIOS). DO NOT UPDATE TO F8. I tried downgrading to F7 and voila, AHCI is back (waste my time reformating my pc thinking my os was the one causing it)

Indeed, wasted my time on reformatting :s...
