Thank you for this article! Clears things up, my e6400 still does 1.064 V 24/7 so no special "S" part for me.

Might be a mishap but after such a honest article, making the link in

"Our thanks to Intel for Q9550S sample."

go to amd.com is genius.

Hmmm, ok, you fixed it...

I think MSI learned from its mistakes wih using cheap capacitors in the past and will not use these ever again. Answer to your question cannot be given right now, the same with the leaking capacitors with socket a motherboards, the problems showed up after a couple of years in use. There's nothing t...

Do you have the Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe or similar? In the section you pointed to it´s marked as SpeedFan support unknown. Maybe you can comment on speedfan support for which headers and how the fan regulation is? I´m very curious, because i´m looking at this board for my next system, but i can´t ...

This sounds very interesting. I'm using a very simple temperature controlled fanc controller at the moment. Here's the url for the schematic http://www.heatsink-guide.com/tempcontrol.htm It's small, simple and the treshold can be changed via the potmeter. This controller controls a 8 cm CPU fan and ...

If you don't have the money right now, is it worth waiting for AM2, or do you already have DDR RAM you plan to use? The 3200 chipset is just the new name for the 580, the difference is purely marketing. Thanks for the info, 580 = 3200 didn't notice that. I dont have DDR lying around tot use, will h...

Nice to see this board reviewed, i've been looking to go s939 with a x2 3800+ for a while, don't have the money right now so it will be a while until i can buy the complete set. I've been looking at this board and the Abit AT8 32x with the RD580 chipset. Silence wise the AT8 has four PWM controlled ...

Not a bit but lots of optimism, as the whole purpose of TPM is to give control of your computer to DRM companies. That way they can be sure nothing is trying to hack their precious content. It would be fine in a world where DRMs were respectful of consumers, but when you do Digital Restriction Mana...

Good point I knew that but almost forgot about it. I hope the crackers will figure something out. Will the socket for the conroe also have TPM? Intel and AMD are both a member of the group supporting TPM so Intel will also implement TPM as soon as possible. I read the specs of the Uli M16xx chipset...

Very nice, where's the TPM? Not to rain on your parade, but this is something to consider with AM2, the Trusted Platform Module is on there, Vista will use it, and you will be restricted on all sides with your vids, music, etc. Maybe i'm being to pessimistic here, but it's something to take into acc...
