Oh right got my foxconn board up and running. I think that it is actually pretty good. It did however had this glitch or something that would cause it to not boot if i set the fsb and ram to "linked". I
t has a nice utility that lets you change the BIOS in OS.
It was packaged well and looks prett nice. It says it supports DDR2 800 and 1066 OC but it lets me go up to 1400! I have no idea if this is normal but its cool
The highest ram voltage settings are 2.2 and default whatever that might be.
But the CPU voltage goes up to 3.7?!!?!
It lets you change the foxconn logo during startup to whatever you want (it hink havn't tried it yet.)
EDIT: LOL got an email about you posting when i was typing.
(i like to do that, take pictures of stuff that are new
LOL i did that too
Smooth OC for the cpu and Ram (apart from the 2.2 volts bs but i think the default is 2.3 so its ok
)
I have my ram running at 5-4-4-9! even at 1000mhz.
I can clock my E4600 to 3.0 ghz with the stock cooler and be just under 60 degrees.
The mobo stays nice and cool and actually has amazing features for just $60! Nice northbridge heat spreader.
The driver CD is one of the few that are actually usefull!! Very nice pretty (maybe even overdone) graphics and visual effects for the driver CD. really easy to work with. Comes with a CMOS reset jumper built in and easy to access. Nice sound for integrated i guess. I can hear voices echo in halo! lol
I didn't know foxconn was this good lol, i had my doubts buying this but not as much as my little 380 watt psu.
I find that the extra few more bucks justifies getting a 8800 GT instead of a 8600 GT or 9600 GT.
Definitly. Don't buy an 8600 or lower.
I think that nVidea should have named the 8800 series chips all 9xxx series and combine it with the 9000 cards.
Do you guys know how good the 9900 will be? I hope it can run crysis with all maxed including AA and stuff.
