you won't find these steppings that gothrek gave you in the store;)

you will find them on buy& sell fora:)

I know... :(

is the A8V deluxe a motherboard which can oc a venice core up to 3ghz ?

someone told me it wouldn't reach 300htt, although, i saw already a few people with 300mhz htt...

If it is the same Jort had some time ago, I remember it went up to 350 at least. U will see for yourself if you have the mobo. If u still have to buy it, then don't, take one of those DFI's. U might have some problems, but u will be satified once u get to know the pro's of those.

thx 4 the reply..
I bought 2 mobo's :
MSI NEO2 PLATINUM
ASUS A8V DELUXE

the first one has to be RMA'ed..
so the second one is (temporarly) in use(and it reaches 300mhz HTT :))

NEO2 with the 1.36mod bios is the best you could have with that mobo.

i could reach 340HTT with that bios. 1.9V max

with the 1.6 bios i could clock to 360HTT buy 1.6V max.

asus can not match performance of the neo2 because of those reasons.
Neo2 is compatible with the ocz ddr booster too :)

highest HTT i reached was 335mhz@1.6v...

but it seems like my motherboard doesn't like this combination :

amd opteron146 @ 2.8
280mhz htt
corsair Xpert Led 1gb kit (tccd) @ 280mhz

although, seperatly they are all stable !

but when i put them together, i get errors (superpi)
