Mine makes absolutely no noise. Even if i put my head right up to it I hear nothing. I do have a loud system but even so. The one thing i do notice is it only cuts down my system noise a little bit. however, if i crank up the power my fans actually get louder than they used to be. Is this...

Im going to be so pissed if in the future i cant get an 8x agp card to work with my board. THe main reason i bought this VIA P4pb x400 was to for the 8x (and its blue :))

As far as a simple answer: yes you really should get 2 more case fans. The fans on your power supply are really only for the supply itself. The standard layout is at least 1 fan in the bottom front (blowing in)with the other in upper rear(blowing out). The heat sink fan on your proc wont do...

I just talked to one of their people through the chat window at their website- weird ive never seen one of those b4. N E way they dont have it in stock either and its on backorder.

Yea the atacom thing was a big stupid mistake. I decided to go with the VIA p4pb X400 bc i have to order my board now. I think im going to get the VPSD bc i havent been able to find out much about any differences between it and the soltek board other then slight differences in price and that...

Sorry misunderstanding. None of these boards (from via or sis) can run ddr400 w/0 ocing. Although they never claimed to officially run ddr400 they hyped unofficial support with their reference boards at stock speeds. However none of the retail boards have been able to run ddr400 stock. Its...

Where did you hear this? I just assumed that none of either the SIS or VIA boards could run DDR400 bc it was just a marketing gimick, not a tech problem. In any case it prbly doesnt help me much bc my dad called me from the office and told me i have to order one tonight. Damn i wish i knew...

Argh, godamnit its not in stock. When i went to atacom last night the board appeared in stock and was 144. Now its 154 and its not in stock. I called them and they said its on back order and probably still in taiwan. What i saw last night was a mistake. Soo basically they just posted the...

Based on ur newest post i think you have already figured out where but if ne one else sees this, they have the board at ATACOM.com. Be sure to check out resellerratings though cause these guys do not come highly rated.

Im in the same boat as you. I think im just going to go ahead and get the p4s8x on the hopes that it will be better then the sr7-8x. I really want to have the 8x agp bc im planning on getting an NV30 or 9700 at some point and the extra bus speed should future proof me somewhat. NE way, why...

Bump for a similar question. I believe I am getting the P4s8x tomorrow (thnk god someone has it) and i was wonder how its onboard 6 channel sound compares to my dell SB live value that I was going to transplant. Im pretty sure that a value sucks but i have decent speakers (altec ada885 4.1's)...

Who fing cares lol i want my damn board. WOOOT. Uh, I mean how do we know that this board will be any better than the SR7-8x? I mean it cant be worse lol but does asus have a generally better record for OCing? The 6 chnl audio is nice though i wish it had raid too. Is the 6 channel better...

Well hardocp.com put up their SR7-8X review and it didnt come out that well. Good performance at DDR333 but no OC'ing at all, AGP8x doesnt freaking work, and DDR400 is of course either non-functional or slower then DDR333. Well crap, i dont know if i can wait for the p4s8x bc of going back to...

Damn u wingtell u tease. lol. Darth Euro I cant find a link anywhere on your link to buy it. I dont care if i have to order the damn thing from freaking Japan. I need a board so i can get my comp up and running b4 i go back to school. I hope i dont get forced to settle for an It-7 or an...
