Great work BT! Dunno how you find the time..oh i remember, you don't sleep!
Looks like a nice mobo for testing but not tweaking :( .
maybe the SIS755FX K8 Combo will have at least Vdimm adjustments and an AGP/PCI lock.
Is 2.6V Vdimm the only value available?

it is by default built on the board
my ddr400 which needs at least 2.7v won't boot at cas 2, the kingston hyperx works though

Very nice review, BT! This is really a very special mainboard and it takes twice as much work to review as a normal board...

Bluetooth, first check your keyboard plug.... something is wrong.. :D
It's very nice to see that this board is working quite fast, but the overclocking capability is not as good as the K8S8X,... I can run at 237 Mhz. memoryspeed.... Maybe depends on the modules used. |

I was typing by writing on the ASus PDA. That is why the words are all messed up

Very nice review indeed! Btw. I saw this board is by far the cheapest S939 solution around right now (overhere around €80 against €120 for the second cheapest). It lacks firewire though, but I don't know if there's many people that need that.
I guess maybe this board should be reviewed again in a few months when better drivers are available.
