I'll try filling all the Dimm slots over the weekend (well Sunday, I'm going to the Oval on Saturday :D ); I can pull memory from my stand-by box and put those in. So far, I've used old Adata sticks which worked fine but wouldn't go much above 200; now I've got Geil Value which are at about 220.

The board hasn't blown up yet and has been incredibly stable although I can't push the FSB over 270.

I reckon it's a bargain personally.

Hi guys! I got this board this weekend and I am more than happy with it.

1meg SuperPI personal record: 37s

FSB is set to 240 (240x10=2400mhz of pure happyness)
RAM is set to 166 (actual speed is 200.1mhz@2-2-2-5)
NB->SB is now at 600 (maby will try 800 later..)

And it is overvolting on vcore, 1.472~1.5v! woohoo!
CPU temp idle at 33C

270 htt is very good. the best boards seem to max out at the 300 or just above 300 mark. sounds like a very good board for someone who wants to go to A64 and still keep their agp card.

270 shoudl be more than enough to overclock any A64 on a 1:1 basis.

Man no sign of the Abit ULi chipset board yet.... or the ECS one at Ocuk :(

Theres only one company doing them and they are Thiefs they can direct themselves to court cos they still owe me 300 quid 1 year after!

what??
asrock owes you money

lol no im just saying theres only one computer company like Ocuk in the entire UK selling this ASrock 939 Uli M1695 mainboard for 50 quid....

And I refuse to give those thiefs a penny more.

Ive checked a bit around it seems there is no Abit board version coming out anytime soon, but chaintech/jetway have said there interested....

As always seems sketchy seems 2005 everyones pulled an ATI and not bothered to release jack, no 1695 boards accept Asrock of all brands/no crossfire boards nadda....

Yes, I'd be interested in whether the xp-120 fits on here.

I am seriously thinking about getting this - I can now upgrade to a dual core x2 3800 for £300. Which is cheaper than the £700 it would cost if I also have to replace my 6800ultra AGP for something of equivalent performance!

Mmm I may have to postpone watercooling and get this plus a nice x2 3800 instead!!

Good review that. Looks like a nice board...

(not sure about the competitor mention above though!)

Its nothing major just very poor support I recieved from another competitor, which has left me 300 outta pocket for over 13 months. Theres only one major company in UK selling this board in stock so not to hard to find it ;)

And it just goes to show you can buy from those cheaper guys but when you need the service you gotta come to Ocuk ;)
