i just ordered mine from newegg,and the bad news is i never built an intel p4 system before.so i need a good freind about right now? really i do need some help when this mobo arrives.
of course ill be giving it a day of normal running to break it in but after that its oc time.
its to be paired with a 2.8E, and 2x512mb bt-d43
also an alpha pal 8952 with a 92mm HO fan with vr
fsp 530wt psu
and ram sinks i have if needed for mosfets.
what mainly i will need is bios help,any cooling and voltage issues you have run into on the mobo also.
ive read not to flash the latest bios as it kills vdimm above 2.95v?
i should be ok with that much vdimm for now as i figure ill top out at 250-260fsb from what the prevous owner states he did.
intel words like gat,pat and silmilier things are forign to me so be patient.only reason i know them by name is i read about them and stuck it in my head to learn asap.
btw how do you like this mobo? ive read great reviews to just ok.
luckily no real bad ones.ive owned 3-4 amd epox mobos and liked them well.
i honestly think in the right hands this mobo could prove to be as good as any p4c800 or ic7. wont be my hands tho for a few weeks as i work slow and steady.
