I hadn't thought of that. I suppose it's possible, but then again, the settings were correct initially. It was set to 1333MHz with the proper latencies and voltage.

In fact, when it overclocked the processor, it actually set the memory to run at a weird speed -- like 997MHz. Then it gave options for 1328MHz and 1597MHz or something like that (instead of the usual even numbers like 1066MHz or 1333MHz). It put the voltage at 1.56V (supposed to run at 1.5V). It was weird. I have no idea where the numbers came from.

The board actually won't let me change the BCLK at all. The option doesn't do anything. If it gets increased, I have no choice but to reset the CMOS. I haven't seen any others report this particular problem.

microATX board in ISK case

Post by adisega » Sat Mar 20, 2010 11:18 am

In a previous post on the first page of this thread, I was talking about installing a microATX board inside this case.
I ended up using a 300-65, simply because I found that case at half price as compared to the 310-150/300-150.
The new left side (with a lot of ventilation holes in it) of the 310-150 is actually much better for this kind of modding, but I managed to get the job done with a 300-65, as well.

what are the dimension of the psu?

i'm hoping to be able to swap it with a shuttle 300 psu with a minimum of modding.
the shuttle is 190 x 82 x 43 mm (L x W x H).

with that I can get a GT240 and an i5
