Well, there are 2 tabs in CPU-Z: Memory - this shows the actual speed, timings etc. of your RAM SPD - this shows SPD information stored in your RAM sticks. My Geil DDR2-800 also return some nonesense (max. speed 533 or so I think). So if it is the "SPD" tab that shows this info, don't...

Yes, you are right. For the easiest way to install Windows see previous post by Sorgon2 - if you keep the native ICH8 (intel chipset) ports in legacy mode (which is default), Windows installation will see it without need for any F6 drivers. After that install Windows drivers, reboot, set the...

I have C1E, EIST and TM2 enabled, only virtualization (or what's the name) off. OCed to 450FSB (i. e. 3,15GHz with E6300). No stability issues so far, 2xPrime95 ran for 48 hours straight, no problems in WoW whatsoever, I played max for 5 hours straight I think.

I have one problem too - if I set the sleep mode to S3 (Suspend To RAM) in BIOS and then sleep the computer from Windows XP, it seems to go to sleep OK (except that ALL the fans turn off, including PSU fan, which I'm not sure is how it should be - my other computer leaves PSU fan on). But when...

It's even very well possible to switch HDD to the purple port after installation. I have the same HDD and I was expecting the HDD to perform better on the JMicron, because the ICH8 doesn't support NCQ, at least as far as I know. But when I tried switching the drive between those two ports and...

Well, Mr. Google showed me this: http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=29&threadid=1910456 It looks like the "Native mode" means SATA mode, while "Legace mode" means IDE mode.

I believe it's for ICH8. The options few lines below for AHCI/IDE/IDE-RAID mode are for Gigabyte I think..
