Hi,

So far this mobo is damn stable for me. I can only run my XP1800+ on my KK266-R at 1870, but on XP333-R I can run at 1896.

The onbaord sound has no effect on OCing. The only bad is the Memory timing is bad for ALi chipset at this moment. It still need a new BIO to show its true potential.... The 1/5 and 1/6 PCI divider is way good for overclockers.... The reason I ddi not use yet is becasue it did not yield good benchmark result, but it does work fine.... The HD benchmark stable so is the 3D test, but memroy scores drop and giving me the lower result when use 1/4 divider. I just hope the new BIO will address the issue..:o :o
