if d voltage used for both is d same, I'll go for higher clockspeed... |

not sure either, best bios before d latest, 705/711 work best for venice while 824 favors sandy core chips...
1T problem > maxout @ ~280MHz ramspeed. any higher 2T is way to go... utt problem > need high vdimm(3.4/3.5v) to be memtest stable for utt (2*512MB) temp reading > abit high, on nF4 load = 42'C max, on nF3 load = 47~49'C max other than these, it had been a great board to me... |

@gengstapo
higher alwez betta, but if d diff in temp is alot n ur usin it for 24/7, 220*11 is betta option for me. IMO, memory speed n timin are important in sandra n super pi, gamin shouldn't influent much by d two. @kingmaker_20 23x-240MHz only... |

QUOTE(babyelf @ Jan 24 2006, 01:30 AM) try 510-1 for TCCD do d slots affect oc'bility of rams, read somewhere in d street sayin d yellow slots works betta for utt/bh-5, but when i place d ram in yellow slots, d system can't even make it to windows... 225MHz w/3.0V, no problem for orange slots thou... 704-2BTA works very well with my UTT and old school BH5 but of course there's no best bios for everyone.. only a best for u.. so u have to try them out  |

QUOTE(babyelf @ Jan 24 2006, 01:46 AM) some say yellow works better some say orange.. u'll have to try them urself.. thx bro... my yellow is better for BH5.. example is orange = 250 3.3v .. error yellow = 250 3.3v .. no problem this utt of mine is kinda stubborn really, burn it w/ 3.0V @ 225MHz for hours ledi but still no progress for higher clock, even a MHz increase will give errors... hopefully 704-2BTA will do 'em gud... |

As per Jim mentioned, I believe it's more to inaccuracy in software rather than mobo's fault. U wun know till u get it dmm-tested.
