definetly the mem controller is less fussy with winnies and what not, my winnie was quite happy at 289 1:1 but with the san diego, about 270 is the most it will do. My friend has that same memory coolasmoo with a SD3700 and was getting terrible problems, so much so he got rid of the board and went for a abit instead (which incidently, he's had no problems since changing).

Well that sucks pretty badly, they should really test stuff properly before releasing a final.

If you scroll up a little, you'll see that they have released a fixed version already :/
The corsair will work fine mate, the only problem is you might not get as much out of the combo - as you would expect. If you havent bought the ram yet, then go for something else if your stuck on the DFI. Otherwise go for the abit fatality, which dosent seem to have any issues with it.

what do you mean?
will it not clock as high?
if so, why?
is the abit any better or how much worse? Would i get 277*9=2500 out of it or more? with a 3000+Venice

Not the point though, if such a flaw can slip through to a final release then you have to wonder what their QA testing is like. Might be a more serious flaw next time.

I don't really see what the problem is. Oskar Wu fixes any major problem almost immediately. How many other companies do that? We get BIOS releases very often, tweaking and improving the board's functionality.

I've got to go out but will check back later.
cheers m8 i was loading 1 out of two drivers aswell and that was it ,i am up and running on raid 0 so thanks a lot i couldn't of picked a hotter day to to play with arrays lol, they are just a bit pickey though even when you do select both drivers , anyways thanks again
this raid is a real boost and on this mobo its even faster

Okay back at overclocked settings and it booted, now finding my best 2.5-3-3-6 FSB
The 'Normal', 'Fast' and "Fastest' settings, 'Fastest" doesnt work for me

Edit: 290x10 BSODs (the same BSOD I usally get) with same settings as before on the 510-1 BIOS. However my bandwidth is up 200mb/s to 7.7gb/s so im happyish Im at 287x10 and ist solid, what changes with 3mhz :|

Concorde, are you a gamer? If so, they tend to prefer low latency than high bandwidth.
@ 290, 2.5-3-3-6 (Your Tras ought to be 8 in this case too), the total latency of the memory is 36.2ns. If you can run at 230 or more, 2-2-2, I think games might prefer that. (34.8ns, reducing to 32 as you approach 250).
Mind you, we are talking myabe 1% difference!
