AMD is dead on the CPU market already: it took them 3 and a half years to put a chip that can fight C2D Conroes clock for clock: the Phenom II. They abandoned the mobile market without a fight, even when AMD/ATI had the better integrated GPU by a large margin, but the entire netbook market was...
real life benefits of DDR3 over DDR2: lower voltages that may lower the power consumption by almost 2 watts.
Better Performance? On X48/P45 systems DDR3 failed to show any benefit over DDR2. On the C2D plataform memory performance is so tRD related that some BIOS called it "performance level"...
easy RAID ports wont work in JBOD mode- only the orange SATAE1 port will work, as stated on page 4-49. Any one who has tested this can confirm?
The chassis detection may be circunverted by simply enabling it and keeping the detector wire always grounded to the chassi-it is worth a try...
Installing an OS on a soft-driver based RAID seens like a lot of trouble: you need the correct drivers DURING the install and the "floppy only drivers" issue can make things worst.
On ASUS MOBOs the easy RAID feature looks like an excellent solution: create an easy RAID 0 for the operational...
turn off power cord. move the jumper. wait 10 sec. put jumper on original position. put the power cord back. BIOS and CRT cleared! and your overclock profiles are intact!
Memory remmaping will actually make you see 3,25GB of 4GB installed when running a 32 bits OS. You need to use 64bits...
I am less than impressed by the way AT reviewed the 2000+ DDR3 kits.
After the great AT article on C2D memory config options http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=3208&p=9
it become almost canonical that any "optimized" setup has to use a memory timing listed on the 12,5 ns - 400 FSB...
1- I am really happy to see people working hard to UNDERVOLT their processores and achieve-1.096v at load for a G0 Q6600? Impressive! My rev L2 e4300 reachs 2,66Ghz@1,24v load.
2-Even if the potential power savings are not worth the price difference i must agree with anyone that says that...
