Im looking for a good AM2 board, NON SLI, im having a hard time finding a good board that can run ddr 800(6400) memory at 2.22 v, i picked up a ASUS m2ne, its max is 1.95v, i also purchases crucial ballistix memory that runs at 2.2v, any suggestions???

Dear Slick,

one way to check:

Search AM2 motherboards at Newegg:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/...yCodeValue=709%3A21489

Pick out the ones that look interesting such as:

GIGABYTE GA-MA69GM-S2H

Go to the Newegg full page product description.

Click on the "manufacturer info >> manufacturer product page"

Then, on the manufacturer product page, find and download the motherboard manual.

On this manual: page 10 says mem voltage is 1.8v....period.

Also, newegg customer review for this board:

Other Thoughts: ... 1.8V RAM requirement is annoying, and its not explicitly documented anywhere that 2.0-2.2V RAM will not work.

NExt one in order of newegg customer rating:

MSI K9NBPM2-FID AM2 NVIDIA Quadro NVS 210S

From newegg customer review: 9-18-07:

Other Thoughts: People complained about memory 1.8v requirements. Upgrade the BIOS (easy download, easy flash) and get up to 2.3v.

Rinse, repeat.....

HTH
