QUOTE(remysix @ Mar 23 2005, 01:44 PM) 3. to run at dual-channel, do I need to put the sticks at DIMM2 & 4 i.e. ONLY - cannot put at DIMM1 & 3 like most P4 mobo. Running single channel is OK btw but defeat the purpose of having the matched pair, izznt it.   |

It comes with 2 separate PCI-E connector.
The less than 600W ATX V2 models came with one. |

QUOTE(arj @ May 7 2005, 08:45 PM) The yellow TIM on my board kinda hardens, very easy to scrape off. Not using the board first and heating up the TIM probably helps. This is a new board btw, sold off my Ultra-D and bought an SLI-D earlier today Why the heck would u wanna do that?Can't mod? |

Haven't been keeping up with developments recently.
Installed the latest platform driver w the ide driver and my pata disk keep reverting back to ATA66 after a while. Anybody got this same issue? Now I reverted back to windows default IDE driver. |

Actually you don't need the floppy and 4 pin molex connector. Those are for more voltage stability when running dual graphic cards.
Anyhow...check out this thread in XS. http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=53660 |

Sorry to disturb the flow of the discussion but anyone running XP120 on this board with a ~2-2.5K rpm fan on suck position?
Does it affect your pwm and ram temps? What's the temps? Ambient temps? Thanks. |
