well...
I got my MSI K8N Neo yesterday, slapped in my A64 3400+ and 1 gig of Mushkin 222 Special.
CPU Temp hovered in the 45C range... during this test.
I ran 20 full stints of mem86 @ 2-2-2-5 with 0 errors. The board loves the Muskin 222. I manually set the aggressive timings.
No other tests have been performed yet. I am waiting on getting a 6800U or x800xt before I proceed with an OS install and any other sorts of tests.
few key notes... about the board...
I hate were they have the 3pin fan connections on the mobo. its a pain.
I also installed my heat sink the opposite way from what the manual stated. I found it easier to push down on the clip its self with out slipping and hitting any capacitors.
Also, remember to install the d-bracket. If not... your board will not post (15 mins of pure hell till it hit me)
