Could anyone clarify if the information for the sound system on the Abit IS7 is correct? The article lists it as being an Analog Devices AD1985. I thought it was Realtek?Thanks,
Harry

What a great article!We're waiting for the Part 2... :B

I bet that the Part 1 thread would be posted by a certain date, and it was indeed posted on that date. I never anything about Part 2, because I've been thinking of adding more benchmarks and data in general to round out any and all Pentium 4 motherboard testing until Prescott arrives.Anonymous User #4, you should always research your recollections if you can't exactly "recall" certain events correctly. ;)

As I recall, Evan made a bet on the part 2 being posted a while back.... the thread was mysteriously removed though.Anonymous User - Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - link
So, what month/year will part 2 be posted?Anonymous User - Sunday, July 6, 2003 - link
I read that the Epox 4pca3+ could do a 1,85 vcore with a bois update.. If anyone know where to find this bios update, please e-mail me zimen1@msn.comI really can't find it.

I also fried my MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R when I updated the BIOS from 1.2 to 1.4. I got a replacement board, but have been hesitant to try again based on my prior experience. Based on your experience with 1.5, (and now 1.6 is available), I'm willing to take another chance.
