**Official Abit Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLI NF650i Owners Thread**

no, and there are issues with current 680i chips with quadcore cpu's...

ask around not just in this thread and see what others recommend, im not a mobo guru unfortunately, i just dont think its worth you spending the cash for a faulty chipset when you dont need its main selling point - SLi...
 
Ive got an Epox ep-9npaj sli. I never intended to use sli and I do not have an Nvidia graphics card. IMO the selling point of the 650i/680i is that you can clock the CPU, and memory independantly; enabling you to get the most out of either your CPU or memory when 1 invariably overclocks better than the other. With the 650i, u can buy a £75ish mobo, a £70ish 2Gb memory (pc5300 if u look around), and an e6300 for a bit more than £100 but should be getting a price drop soon.

Then you want a 650i Ultra £50 apparently, NF6 chipset and only one PCIe x16 slot. Job's a good 'un. ;)
 
so has anyone ran sli with this board yet?
gonna be trying it next week so wondered if there are any issues.
if not then i guess i will be the first- hurrah!
 
Well i installed one of these today and i have to say im not really impressed. Ive got an E6300 thats good for at least 3Ghz and it wont even do 2.4 in this board :mad:

EDIT :Which memory slots are you guys using?

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure (I hope) it can't be as bad as you're making out. Have you updated the BIOS? The new one is supposed to be almost as good as the ASUS.
