Ik heb gister mijn Asus A8R-MVP in gebruik genomen. En ik liep vrij snel tegen problemen aan :) Of ja ik kan het beter gebruiks gebreken noemen.

Even wat specs:

Supports AMD Socket 939 Athlon 64 X2
The A8R-MVP supports AMD 939-pin Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual-Core processor with 1MB x2 or 512KB x2 L2 cache which is based on 64-bit architecture. It features better multithreaded / multitasking performance than Athlon 64 FX / Athlon 64.

ATI CrossFire Technology
ATI's CrossFire boosts image quality along with rendering speed, eliminating the need to crank down screen resolutions to get the high image quality you want. CrossFire ignites with the higher antialiasing, anisotropic filtering, shading, and texture settings you desire. Adjust your display configurations, experiment with your advanced 3D settings, and check the effect with a real-time 3D-rendered preview within ATI's Catalyst™ Control Center to rule your CrossFire system.

Dual-Core CPU

Enjoy the extraordinary CPU power from the latest dual-core CPU. The advanced processing technology contains two physical CPU cores with individually dedicated L2 cache to satisfy the rising demand for more powerful processing capability.

64-bit CPU support
64-bit computing, the next generation technology to replace current 32-bit architecture, delivers advanced system performance, faster memory access and increased productivity. This motherboard provides excellent compatibility and flexibility by supporting either 64-bit or 32-bit architecture.

AMD Cool 'n' Quiet! Technology
Supports AMD Cool 'n' Quiet! Technology, which monitors system operation and automatically adjusts CPU voltage and frequency for a cool and quiet environment.

Serial ATA 3Gb/s
The motherboard supports the next-generation hard drives based on the Serial ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage specification, delivering enhanced scalability and doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data retrieval and saves.

PCI Express Architecture
PCI Express is the latest I/O interconnect technology that will replace the existing PCI. With a bus bandwidth 4 times higher than that of AGP 8X interface, PCI Express x16 bus performs much better than AGP 8X in applications such as 3D gaming. PCI Express x1 also outperforms PCI interface with its exceptional high bandwidth. The high speed PCI Express interface creates new usages on desktop PCs e.g., Gigabit LAN, 1394b, and high-speed RAID systems.

Serial ATA 3Gb/s
The motherboard supports the next-generation hard drives based on the Serial ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage specification, delivering enhanced scalability and doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data retrieval and saves.

Dual Channel DDR400

Dual channel DDR technology doubles the bandwidth of your system memory and hence boost the system performance to out perform any memory existing solutions in the market. System bottlenecks are eliminated with balanced architecture and peak bandwidths up to 6.4GB/s.

ADI High Definition Audio
The onboard 6-channel High Definition audio CODEC enables high-quality ADI AD1986A audio CODEC, which automatically detects and identifies what types of peripherals are plugged into the audio I/O jacks and notifies users of inappropriate connection, meaning there will be no more confusion of Line-in, Line-out and Mic jacks.

AI NET2
ASUS AI NET2 remotely detects cable connection the second you turn on the system, and any faulty connections are reported back up to 100 meters at 1 meter accuracy.

PEG Link
This latest technology, PEG (PCI Express Graphics) Link Mode, is a unique feature that enables users to boost graphics card performance for superior video quality. PEG Link allows users to raise GPU and VGA memory throughput via the motherboard BIOS the same way system bus and memory bus are tweaked. PEG Link Mode enables powerful video performance on DX8 and DX9 applications. ASUS engineers carefully fine-tuned the parameters for every single PCI-Express card to provide system stability during high-speed graphics operation.

Precision Tweaker
Designed for serious overclockers
It offers ways to raise system performance inch-by-inch and step-by-step to achieve maximum performance! This is about getting the most out of your machine and taking pride in your customized computer.
* vDIMM - Take control of how much power is going into the memory modules. ASUS gives you 8-step voltage control to the DIMM
* vCore - Find out "exactly" how much power your CPU needs. Fine-tune it with 0.025 volts at a time!
* SFS - SFS (Stepless Frequency Selection) allows FSB tuning from 200MHz up to 400MHz at 1MHz increments.

IEEE 1394a
IEEE 1394a interface provides high speed digital interface for audio / video appliances such as digital television, digital video camcorders, storage peripherals & other PC portable devices.

C.P.R.(CPU Parameter Recall)
When the system hangs due to overclocking failure, there is no need to open the case to clear CMOS data. Just simply restart the system, the BIOS would show the previous setting and then users can amend the CPU setting again.

ASUS Q-Fan
ASUS Q-Fan technology intelligently adjusts both CPU fan and chassis fan speeds according to system loading to ensure quiet, cool and efficient operation.

ASUS CrashFree BIOS2

The CrashFree BIOS2 feature now includes the BIOS auto-recovery function in a support CD. Users can reboot their system through the support CD when a bootable disk is not available and go through the simple BIOS auto-recovery process. ASUS motherboards now enable users to enjoy this protection feature without the need to pay for an optional ROM.

ASUS EZ Flash

With ASUS EZ Flash, you can update BIOS before entering operating system. No more DOS-based flash utility and bootable diskette required.

De dingen waar ik tegen aan liep:

Weinig ruimte rondom de socket: Ik kon me Zalman 9500 alleen maar van onder naar boven er op zetten. Gedraait kan niet doordat de bevestigings clips dan tegen elco's ( vlakbij de mostvett heatsink ) aan komen.
Weinig ruimte bij de NB: Ik kon alleen de standaart cooler gebruiken. De DFI orb die ongeveer even groot is past niet omdat hij dan net een elco raakt. Alleen een zalman blokje zou kunnen werken.

Mobo heeft maar 1.52v V-core: 1.45v is de max daar kun je 1.52 van maken met de v-core overvolt.

Mobo heeft veel problemen met T1 timings: Me ballistix willen maar 240 mhz T1 op de DFI wouden die makkelijk 280 MHz T1 lopen. Zet ik T1 uit gaat het wel goed.

Er zijn meer mensen die last hebben van de bovenstaande problemen. Ik hoop dat Asus de laatste 2 kan fixen met een bios update. Verder werkt het mobo wel aardig. Alleen ik heb het niet goed kunnen vergelijken met mijn DFI omdat ik gewoon niet de zelfde v-core kan instellen voor de cpu.

Ik hoop dat er meer mensen zijn die hier hun ervaring komen delen.

LET OP!!! dyslectisch Dus spelling kan verkeerd zijn!!! -- RIP CJ, The ATi Topic wont be the same without you.....


Verwijderd

Ik heb het zelfde bordje. Ik heb een boot-probleem met mijn Opteron144@2565Mhz. Ik moet eerst resetten voordat het systeem wil booten. Ik heb mijn mem ook op 2T draaien, ik krijg mem tot maar 255Mhz 1T stabiel, daarna errors met memtest86+.
-Ik vind cool 'n' quiet wel erg relaxed.
-Verder vind ik het digitale geluid niet echt om over naar huis te schrijven.
-ik haal 310Mhz HTT (DLT 3X)

Voor de rest vind ik het bord wel ok

Carpe diem

Je topicstart ten spijt, maar we zien dit soort topics liever niet in PMG :) Op deze manier concentreren alle afzonderlijke, op zichzelf staande problemen, met betrekking tot het bord in 1 topic. Dit is onoverzichtelijk wanneer men wil searchen naar vergelijkbare problemen en op dit topic stuit. Ook is zo'n topic drempelverlagend voor diegenen die basic vraagjes stellen als in "Hoe kan ik FSB instellen op dit bord?", etc. Daar het onoverzichtelijk is voor de moderators en bijna niemand topicreports doet van dit soort dingen in grote topics, is het onwerkbaar.

Je kunt wel een overclock ervaringen topic in Die-Hard Overclocking & Cooling starten though. Dan kun je gewoon over overclockervaringen discussieren. De op zichzelf staande problemen kun je wel telkens in een nieuw topic hier in PMG posten :)
