Does not want to boot

white Reviewed By: Dale on 5/26/2009
Rating + 2
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Works well, when it does boot up. No real stability issues even after having my computer on for days/weeks at a time.
Cons: There is a reason for leaving it on. Once it is off, it is a real hassle to turn on again. Frequently shuts off at "Decompressing bios to ram" stage of boot.
CPU-z and NVidia's web based driver scan detect chipset as 740a instead of 750a.
Other Thoughts: Will rate better if situation is resolved. Removed chipset heatsinks and chipset is labeled as nforce 750a. Currently working with nvidia and msi on cause for boot failure and chipset issue.

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: On board optical and integrated 8000 series video. Not a bad price. Includes automated driver update software.
Cons: None so far.
Other Thoughts: If you are looking to use SLI in the near future, but don't have the cash, this will keep you running until you do.

Phenom II X4 955 WOW!

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Had this board a while now. Flashed it with BIOS v.3.5 and took a chance. Yep! Phenom II X4 955 fired right up. OC'ed to 3.683 GHz so far.
Cons: WARNING! After CPU install got straight to BIOS and set to fail safe settings FIRST. When I went into BIOS the CPU voltage was set way too high. Aster that I started to OC.
Other Thoughts: So far I'm hitting a wall at 3.7 GHz.
