Shall I keep my NF7-S ? or switch to ASUS!

pacino · Oct 6, 2003

Yep, kinda not happy with this board, I'm stuck @ 210fsb for some reason, I have tested the memory @ 250 1:1 ratio on my INTEL system and it works fine! .. so I'm leaning towards dumping this board and get ASUS .. what do you guys think?

Heh had the Asus. Words cannot express how much more I like my Abit.

What rev NF7-S do you have? What kind of processor?

EDIT oops nevermind didn't notice the amd system as the 2nd line in your sig.

noooo....

I'm not sure, but if I remember correctly you can't run RAM as fast in an AMD system as in an Intel system.

have you tried increasing the chipset voltage? the Asus won't even have that option.

Yes, 1.7v is the max I can get... bleh... I guess I'll stick with it then... and probably build another rig for my 3Ghz journey...

I think there is a vdd mod that you can do. I have not done it though.

Yep, saw it / read it .. but won't do it lol ..

pacino have you tried the L12 mod? it works wonders and a child could do it... seriously, all it involves is placing a small copper wire in the motherboard cpu socket in a very specific place...

most ppl get an extra 10-15 fsb, it could be much much more...

the nf7 is the better overclocker(and a better board generally i must say) so there isn't much point in switch....
