Does the EPoX EP-8KHA+ have a bug that causes random reboots and half dead RAM?

Is it even worth buying?

the new revision 2.0 fixed the problems revision 1.3 had problems but newegg has them for really cheap with a bios chip that also fixed the problems

I have the board and I am very pleased with it. I haven't had any problems since I put it in. I have it overclocked very stabily right now. My system doesn't crash. Also, the diagnostic LED helped me in OCing a little bit. When pushing my FSB speed up it showed me my memory was the bottleneck.

I've had no problems. Every mobo manufacturer has some duds in every batch, even the over inflated price ones like Asus, etc. It's a stable, fast board. Just give it a good power supply and everything oughta be ok. I've been running at 145+FSB's since the day I got the board w/ no crashes other than me pushing it too far in an o/c and having to back off a little.

So are you saying that newegg has the 2.0 version?

The 8KHA+ is a wonderful mobo 🙂

My first one was a dud, but I RMAed it to Axiontech, and it came back shortly after. This one booted right after I switched all the jumpers and pushed the button! It's perfectly stable also; I burned it overnight with ram timings set tightly. And I lowered my Vcore and it's still stable (don't ask why, I just did it after reading something about why too much voltage is bad).

In addition, all the ones I've seen are Rev 2.0, from the ones flashed with the old L bios, to those with N+ to the U= bios boards.
