It's not a simple topic. I can tell you that PAT is enabled on my IC7 at
either 1:1 or 5:4. I can still tweak memory settings and overclock to the
limits of my ram with PAT enabled.

PAT is enabled on my IC7-G according to CPU-Z. I run at 5:4 with the

memory
at 2, 5, 2, 2 in manual settings. I have not had any luck with GAT. I

just
leave it set at Auto on both an IC7-G and an IS7-G.

I've an Asus P4P800 with Hyperpath (the name Asus gives to PAT, see in
the
article hereafter why yhey did) enabled. The fsb is overclocked at 240

MHz.
DDR are Corsair Twin 1 GB (2x512 MB) PC3700 at 1:1 and cas settings of
3-4-4-8. Sandra benchmark gives 5457 - 5334. Compared to the normal
values
of 5007 - 5005 with the 875P chipset, I found my values high enough and
stopped further overclocking

Ok,
thanks guys! I will continue reading up. But what you said is pretty much
what I have been reading, that is the Canterwood is the daddy, while the
Springdale is a *kludge*?.

I have a hunch that the newest Spingdales (AI7 etc) have been re-worked in
some way because one or two reviews I read have been by former Canterwood
owners who after reviewing the AI7 have decided to keep it instead of
their
original Canterwoods?.

As far as ABIT and Canterwood boards go, there is only the IC7. I have
read
several reviews on this board and am still undecided between it and the
AI7.

new specs coming soon!


I also have the IC7 and have the GAT at all "auto", no problems.

Wayne why don't you get the AI7 and let us know how you like it?
