Here comes my ABIT IC7-MAX3 (read about giga-byte)
So, I was just writing about how my giga-byte board never had any problems and guess what? At that same moment components started to randomly fail.

Now, I'm getting my IC7-MAX3....

You mean IC7, with the 875PE chipset.

This board is going to be sweet, as far as I know it's also "Prescott Ready". Which is good for me.

The only operational difference between the IS7 and the IC7 is 865PE vs. 875PE right? The MAX3-version looks like it has an upgraded cooling fan and voltage control & heatsink.

The temp in my room is about 30c. My chip is running at 32c with air cooling. I am so ready to see how far I can go.

On my GA-8KNXP @ 1.6v I can reach 3.5ghz stable.
