Hello all ... again: Seems that I have fallen into the RMA worm hole. I have (2) GA-7N400 Pro2 mbs that have been to Gigabyte.

In trying to configure the MOBO to run an AMD XP2700+ (FSB 333). The best I've been able to do is manually configure the bios FSB frequency at 150 and leave everything else at AUTO. In this configuration the system comes up and reports a XP2400 at POST and is stable. Setting the FSB Frequency in...

I'm thinking of buying the Gigabyte GA-K8N Ultra-9 or DFI 4 Ultra D or the EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra. Would folks who have the K8N Ultra purchase it again or would you get another board? The DFI is highly rated by reviewers and enthusiasts .. but it just looks like it could be a headache to tweak it...

Your temps look fine, I would not worry about it I have a system that is showing 74-76 C all the time and is stable as a rock. Your +5 volt is a little low, you might want to keep an eye on that, if your having problems with stability you might want to check your PSU, other than that your...
