hehe well this mobo is not meant for OC btw. If you want good OC experience, maybe can get Jetway SLi..

I chose this board because I like it's stabality and has constant update of BIOS so it could continue to support newer proc of s939. Unlike others who has a few patches at first then no more news.

Ok, had the Jetway for almost a week now, and it's turned out to be a little overclocking champ.

Hit 325 LDT without a hitch, took it up to 330 for curiosity's sake and it was still alive and kicking (didn't take it beyond that because I didn't want to have to resort to the Clear CMOS jumper).

Anyway, here's a rundown of overclocking features on the Jetway 939GT2-ULTRA-G

1. LDT from 200-400 MHz
2. HT multipliers 1x-5x
3. CPU VCore up to 1.55V
4. Additional VCore up to +0.35V (giving a total of 1.9V)
3 & 4 together are quite useful, since you can leave VCore at Default, and dial in additional voltage. This allows Cool n Quiet and programs like RMClock to adjust CPU voltage (otherwise their commands are overriden by the motherboard setting)
5. DDR 200, 266, 333 and 400 Memory speeds
The Jetway does a good job of showing you what actual memory clock you will get with a given LDT speed
6. Thermal Throttling
7. CPU and System Fan Thermal Controls.

Ran quite stably at 325x8 = 2.6 GHz on a Venice 3000+ @ 1.6V on air cooling, but have decided to dial it down to 2.5 GHz so I can turn down the voltage a little. Anyway, the overclocking features on the Jetway are quie comprehensive and the board is very stable.

Right now I have a strange problem with the rear usb ports where a device will hang for a second or so once in a while. Not sure if this is a motherboard problem, because it recurred on a second board. Front usb ports and PCI USB add-in card works fine. Will contact Jetway and see what they have to say.

Cheers,
V.
