Bought a Abit IS7 last week and got it today along with a 2.4C cpu. Did it work? NO. After trying it out and testing all other components it´s for sure that either the cpu or the mobo is not working. So i have to rma it and probably it´s the mobo not the cpu.. Since Abit has many issues with ch5 ram when trying to use 5:4 or 3:2 divider i was thinking of maybe switching to another mobo if it´s the mobo that is defect. I have 2*256 Twimos pc3200 memory winbond CH5 that i´m going to use. Which mobos out there does not have the issues with memory dividers and what do you suggest i choose? The price should be around the IS7 price 120-150$ something. The board must have sata and possibilty to use sata raid0. I don´t need gigabyte lan and firewire. If it´s 856PE or 875PE chipset i don´t care..As long i´ts capable of getting high fsb.
Any suggestions and maybe some info on why you think I should be buying that especially mobo would be much appreciated.
