Yes I did... :)
Well part of the problem was the limited voltage.. So I wasnt able to overclock like I did before... The other problem was the divider... The motherboard or it could be the DCDDR didnt like the 4:5 timing above DCDDR420 which is only like 168FSB...
So as soon as I dropped to 1:1 it ran great...
The main problem was that the board didnt like my 9700Pro, as soon as I got my 9800Pro it ran every benchmark I threw at it :)
That was my main beef with the setup... I guess this board or Canterwood's are very picky with the revision of 8x video cards out there.

Thanks Colossus.....
Also in all the posts in this thread there are other boards that are talked about getting over the P4C800. The Abit is talked about the most, but why has no one talked about the Aopen AX4C Max board? Has anyone tried the Aopen board yet?

I have seen some sigs with that board... But I dont like AOpen boards.. So I wouldnt even touch it :) Nor would I touch BIOSTAR.

jameezzzz, if you want to use the serial ata raid, you can do it all from the system bios, it will allow you to either use the two drives in raid or you can use the drives independantly.

so i should just set up the twp hard drives as i normally would and then do the setings in bios?...the instructions would come with the ic7-g right?
also do all HD work with raid?...or is there a special feature they need?
-
Yes all HD's work with RAID...
But for optimial performance you want to identical drives... I wouldnt mix 2 80GB drives, one from Seagate the other from Maxtor.
Remember your RAID array will be as fast as the slowest drive in the array..
Also if you mix drive sizes, 80GB and 60GB; the RAID 0 array will only be 120GB large... The extra 20GB will be lost.
