Ok I have the IC7 (first rev) and I have a few questions regarding it and its performance.
1 - Being an ABIT board, does it still read 9-11c higher than real temps or have they fixed that yet, my chip in BIOS reads 49-50c at bootup and 51c idle, just want to make sure im not really that hot at idle.
2 - On this board what will render overall best performance, fastest timings or highest actualy FSB, like should i do 230fsb at 2-5-2-2-1t or would i be better off for say 275fsb 3-8-3-3-2t. My mem being Kingston HyperX is maybe a bit shoddy for either extreme type of OCing but I can upgrade that if needed, currently I can bootup at default timings, 260fsb / 3:2 and fixed 66/33 agp/pci
3 - What advantages does the AI7 have over the IC7 if any?
4 - Would I gain any advantage moving to say the IC7-Max 3 as far as bandwidth and overall performace go?
thanks in advance
