Question about Asus A7V

I am looking to purchase one of these. Do all of them come w/ the dipswitches and jumpers for multiplier and voltage tweaking? I know someone who bought one and it does contain these... just wondering because I remember some early A7V's didnt have them... thanks
 
Iam pretty sure the ones with dip swithes do not come with the audio or modem, is that correct?
 

That would be correct.
I find the board to be very temperamental if the voltage is not set to 1.85v

I posted a fix for boards that would not boot after changing the bios settings in certain instances. You actually have to pull the battery and disconnect the power connector for 12 hrs. Or overnight anyway. Even a few hours did not work with the board I have.
 
Who wants the crap onboard audio and modem anyway? 🙂

My board works perfectly and i've yet to try 1.85V.

When overclocking though and it encounters a setting it doesn't like, you'll have to press the reset switch about 2 or 3 times before it reverts to the default settings.
 
I installed an Alpha HS 6035 and now I can't get the damn thing too boot on a regular basis, overclocked or not.

If I short out the contacts, it will boot directly to the bios settings screen, then when it reboots again, it just freezes again before the memory is tested.

Needless to say, it is pissing me off.
 
All but the earliest versions come with dip switches. The Board works fine. The biggest headache is the Promise Controller. You need to hook your 100 ATA drives up as if they are SCSi's
