I bought an ASUS A7V and it doesn't have CPU mult. dipswitches!

[tourette]

What do I do? Does anyone know if there will be a way to overclock the ones without dipswitches? I bought it from tccomputers.com and expected it to have them, but it doesn't. Will there be a way to do it in BIOS, or possibly a modification I can make to the board, or am I just screwed?

Does it have audio onboard? From what i heard only the ones with no audio have dips.

Asus themselves have said that the first run of A7Vs would NOT have the switches built into them. Future production runs of the board will have the switches. Sorry to hear that you got a board expecting it to have the switches.

Yeah, I heard eactly what brian did.

Oh, that really sucks. You are screwed.

Ok, anyone know when the second run will be available. I'm hoping before the end of Aug, I want a Duron dagnabbit.

The "Second run" are already out in the UK now, weird that they're not in the US.

I've managed to get my Duron 650 to 950 but it crashes during Q3 tests 🙁
