Not every board out there can reach its Bios Max FSB!
Bringing people together with positive attitudes and a common team effort in sharing information to improve the non perfect motherboards out there, is what these forums are for.
Man buy an Asrock 775Dual-VSTA and then make a positive or a negative post based upon on your own personal experience not bullshit.

P.S. It seems to me that Asrock is working hard to improve this board with all their bios updates and that is a good sign of support in my book.


:thumbsup:

Well, good. If you're happy I'm happy.

Personally, I want a board (not even talking about OCing or tons of features; I'd be happy with a bare-bones 775 Conroe board for like $80 that only had standard features - LAN, sound, ide, sata, etc) that is at least 99% bug-free from the first BIOS, not 4 BIOSes down the line.

The ASRock 775Dual-VSTA is a remarkably stable board. It was a $300 upgrade for this mobo and an E6400 and now my system can run circles around any system in your list of rigs.

Ask Gary Key his opinion on the board.

Thanks for posting this good program that indeed picks up ram speeds.

Well, in anything CPU limited, perhaps.


I don't know who gary key is.

You're not on the ball are you?

It seems like you have not read any of the Anandtech reviews on this motherborad that you have been so negative about?

I suggest that you read anandtech's articles in the motherboard section.
