To awh85,

What's your opinion about Biostar TA690G? I've seen many complains on the AMD driver issue , as well as the bios . Mind to share your opinion about this mobo with me?

Regards,
dblooi

BE are Brisbanes

they're just running at 45W

hi. first of all, thanks for ur help. my problem was just a small one. i just had to reset the jumper and it booted up. no problems on it now.

for the drivers issue, im using catalyst 7.6 now which doesnt give me problems (except that the igp is showed as x1200 instead of x1250 but thats not a big problem and doesnt affect performance )but previous 7.5 did. so far, the board has given me no problems except for the problem i was facing just now.

sound is good. lan is gives no problems. graphics are good. can play most games like cnc3, fifa07, carbon, FEAR, battlefield 2, etc etc but u must make compromise on resolution and quality la.

quite a lot of ppl can get a good overclock on this board and me using the automated overclock can also get my 3600 brisbane to 2.3 from 1.9 just by changing overclock profiles without any advanced overclocking knowledge.

with my brisbane, my idle sys temp is below 40 as well as cpu temp. so far im happy with the board and also like the pcb colour coz it looks interested compared to others haha.

oic. Thanks ,soulfly .

You're welcome and thx for sharing your opinion. So far what's your highest cpu frequency that you've reached / oc b4? Any screenshot?

for others using my combo, ta690g + 3600+ brisbane, they can mostly get 2.8 and above to around 3

anyone tried the new biostar tf560 am2+ motherboard? the price is quite reasonable RM285 at pczone. thinking of changing mb next month.

hahahaha mission succed!!!!

contraz.hehehe...i'm closed to 3.1ghz prime stable.with new T690 bios.5/6/2007
for who using biostar T690 fast fast go flash.more stable and more oc space.

heard that the board overclocks quite nicely out of the box

BE-2300 is like X2 3600+ and BE-2350 is like X2 4000+.. but saw their reviews, not good in OCing... got around 2.5ghz or something...
they compare it to C2D E2130 (if im not mistaken)...E2130 can go up to 3.0ghz...
but this proc is good for those who want low power consumption... not OCing...

2.5ghz.. maybe they donno how to tweak them.. mind to share the link?

if we set X2 3600+ vCpu to 1.1v.. will be 45W then...
no point getting BE with higher price..

yeah.i also mind to shared the link

BE is good if you want to run an HTPC or media center system. Can run passive summore.

Any comments on MSI's K9A-Platinum or ASUS M2A-MVP?

Both are AMD/ATi boards, lower power heat and usage, but previous reviews say that they aren't OCing quite good. Anyone can proof that/defy that?
