I guess it wouold help if I actually posted the problem. Cannot get my rear speakers to work in 5.1, they worked fine on my AX4C system which also uses the realtek, but not with this board. Any suggestions?

Having probs with the Logitec z540s (4.1) and the onboard audio. Just set up this system and would rather someone gave me the scoop without having to read the endless pages. Also, I was wondering whether there was some more info on a vmod for this board yet as indicated above?

Thanks, VDIMM @ 2.8; AGP @ 1.6; Chipset also water cooled (I credit this being the reason for the good oc with this board, in addition to having a 92mm fan blowing directly on the board, and that heat sink hanign there), had to make my own damn mounting bracket since the mobos with the 875 have...

Well this thread seems to have died. Well the new revision to the BIOS seems to have eliminated most of my probs with this board. Settled for a nice 251 FSB OC @ 1.6 divider, as I started having probs with the sound system, a little to high I think for the realtek and the southbridge. Had to...

Yeah, I looked at the web site and your right, my bad, I was relying upon an article that was written about the new colling apparatus on the Max 3 and it seemed to indicate that the new cooling was in anticipation of the Prescott running hot and the need for additional cooling around the...

FSB 252 is probably tops for most 2.8c's as the cpu tops out at about that. I was able to get a 255 FSB, but no higher, with a 1.75 VCORE setting (won't go any higher as I am afraid of frying my cpu). There was a roundup where the AX4C utilizing the 1.04a beta biso topped out at 266 FSB with a...

BTW - Either the new bios or the mem I installed has fixed the EZClocking utility. Its now fully functional and isn,t bad as well as the rest of utilities with the exception of winbios that doesn't work with the new 1.10. HAven't checked this morning to see if it has been updated. Haven't...

Man I will tell you that I have never had to eat crow more than I am doing with this board. It appears that my remarks were again in haste as I failed to change the settings in the bios after installing the mushkin mem. It appears that I was wrong in that it was a mem problem because I am now...

I am curious as to the change in the DDR voltage selection. Does that mean that you can no longer manual set voltage and that AUTO is the only setting, or that they fixed some bug with the AUTO setting. Oh well, guess I can try it out to see. Update, it appears that the problem is with...

For the benefit of any Aopen reps who happen to do a little market research . . . up the damn vdimm in the next bios revision so we can oc the new DDR modules . . . restrictions on vdimm when current modules are rated between 2.5-3.1 is ludicrous, not to mention the fact that you include vcore...

So you finally make an appearance:) Gives us the skinny as you seem to have the most stable oc, and we can all benefit from the results. I have tried the new bios and it does not seem to make a difference. I am really starting to think that there is a problem with the cmos clearing function...

By the way, the new bios doesn't do shite! for stability:)

Yeah sorry about the hurried response and failure to see your specs on timing. Abit boards seem tobe havign the same issues with corsair, kingston, et al. hitting ceilings of 250 fsb or lower in some cases, and not even being able to oc at all. I am realy starting to lose confidence in the...

No suggestions here on your prob, as I am also having some issues with my mem. Have you used the mem in another dual channel setup? i.e. GNB board or Nforce? and are the mem sticks a dual channel set? Could be some timing issues with the sticks as I have read other complaints regaridng OCZ...

(Smacks hand against forehead) Damn I am getting stupid in my old age, here I am thinking that "for DOS" meant for Win98 or Win95. This flashing from windows is going to take some getting used to:). My rig is down right now due to change outs in my setup, are there any changes in VDIMM...
