ASUS P4B266-C motherboard - Any thoughts?

[SaigonK]

Got a chance to buy a Asus P4B266-C/1.6 P4 and some ddr ram.
Wondering what peoples thoughts are of this setup...

Thanks!

I had that exact setup for awhile. It rocked...kinda wish I hadn't sold it.

My P4B266-C is running my 1.6A @ 2.4 (150FSB, 1.65v, PAL8492). I'll have to see how far my CPU can go when I bump it up to 1.7v.

It's a great board but undervolts a bit, make sure you connect all 3 plugs, Yes connect at 3 connectors.

The ATX The P4 4 pin & the EZ plug (hd connector 4 pin), this will make it dip less under full load.

Excellent board! I have the same setup and it is VERY stable. I don't OC but I hear it's great with a Northwood.

It's a fine board. I ran a 1.8A @ 2.3Ghz on one for about five months early last year, then sold the board/CPU to my buddy. He's been running it at 2.35Ghz everyday since then. A good stable board, running fine with a 30% OC for almost a year now.
