Heeeeelppp!!!!

Dammit, I cannot find a damn review for this motherboard I have been

eyeing
up at the end of the bar. She told me her name was Asus - heh I even got
her number! P4S800

Does anyone have any experience this new motherboard? Or does anyone know

of
any reviews lying around about it's performance - preferably from a gaming
perspective.

Cheers

Daniel


Use www.google.com
type in Asus P4S800 reviews

Okie dokie then

So I have decided to buy one of these here P4S800's as they seem rather
funky - and for £50 brand new off eBay I am not complaining lol.

Does anyone have any experice with this board when it comes to the
installatiopn and the BIOS. Any bugs people know of that have caused issues?
I am going to put my ti4200 8X AGP in for now as it is the best I have. Are
there any known issues with this card and these mobo's???

Cheers

I forgot to add also

I am totally clueless when it comes to DDR ram. I have never used it and do
not understand all these numbers, settings and values that come with them
these days. I have used kingston to asceertain which RAM I can get for this
mobo. The link is here for the one I have found which seems to be the best
but if someone could take a look and advise that would be great

http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/conf...R400X64C25/512

Sorry if the link breaks - OE is not that good! lmao

That module is on the Asus QVL list. I suspect the following module will
work just as well:

Your Ti4200 8X video card is fully supported.

Could anyone explain to me the whole process of "matched pairs"?? I remember
reading a while ago that they provided a serious performance boost. If this
is the case could someone point m in the right direction, and would this
solution work on the Asus P4S800 ???

Cheers
