Has anyone ever used motherboards.com? They apparently have the SINXP1394 for sale there but I'm kind of leery because of the abysmal rating of the place on reseller ratings.
looking forward to these results ~ please post a thread?Originally posted by: Elvis2
Well, my SQ800 just arrived from Newegg . Time to go to work. Kinda wished I held off on installing that watercooling rig...

I bought an Enermax EG651P-VE FMA (551W) to power my system...is there a problem using a larger PSU with the SINXP? How can that be? I'm starting to wonder about QC in Gigabyte's company...Who ever heard of such a thing as downgrading a PSU which allows the board to post? There have been two posts now that I've read stating that the PSU was to powerful for both the GA-8INXP and the GA-SINXP...
Evan, can you add any clarification to this question? Have you seen this problem? If not, could you check into it? Thanks...

So far performance for me seems to be on par with my Iwill P4HT (845PE) board. Obviously memory bandwidth is much greater however I haven't run any apps that have seen a significant performance gain from the improvement In some instances, performance has actually decreased. I think maybe this is a result of not being able to run as aggressive ram timing on the sis as I could on the PE.

most apps wont improve much noticibly. Clock speed is far more important than memory bandwidith. Also sis agp driver is crap...
slower then a PE? :QOriginally posted by: Elvis2
