A7N8X's problems hiting FSB200

[0JK0]

I have read so many times that people with A7n8x with revison lower then 2.0 can't hit the FSB200.
Did any of you guys upgrade to the newest BIOS(which-according to asus- provides FSB200 support), and then try to o/c?

Can anyone check it and try it because i have a7n8x deluxe rev.1.04, and i am about to buy Barton 2500?

Press edit. My asus 1.04 reaches 200fsb and is fine. yeah.. I thinks thats you you wanted to know right?

mine does 166 and not to much better so that is where I run it

Yeah, I flashed it to 1004, but it still won't do 200MHz stable. Mine is stable at 186MHz FSB.

None earlier than the Revison 2.0's were designed to run a 200 Mhz bus... so they haven't been tested at that speed, and thus aren't guaranteed to work at that speed.

Yeah, my 1.04 revision board with latest bios only hits 184mhz stable. If you look at the 6-way nforce2 shootout done by anandtech their pre-revision 2.0 a7n8x deluxe hit 185, which was about the average for boards before the 400 ultra revision came out
