Good value, generally more power-efficient than NV, and they fit in with my AMD system :) I've been running a 5750 for over 3 years now and it STILL plays most games with ease!

That's for the share plan alone. You have to add $40 or $45 (I forgot which) per device attached to the plan.

But I was dying for a good deal on toaster ovens and toothbrushes from newegg! :D

Damnit! I just bought BF3 off Amazon for $40 earlier today :(

Currently $13.33 for me. Deal over?

Got it flashed after fighting with bootable cds for a couple hours hehe - works fine now! Now if only I could get it to run at it's spec'd 400mhz 1:1 with cpu...

After going into bios it's only showing ~3.5gb, also there is no option for mapping with this bios version, and I don't have a floppy drive to flash it :o. I have an MSI 975x platinum version 2, with the bios it came with when the board was first released. Where would I find this 4gb patch...

I'll try fiddling with the BIOS in a bit. I have the 975x chipset too. We'll see what happens..

Just reinstalled to 64bit vista and it's only giving me 3326mb for ram when I have 4gb, anything that could be causing this? Any windows tweaks/settings that will allow full access?

This thread has enough content in it to satisfy anyone I think, and has become rediculous and should be locked.

MSI 975x revision B, how much vfsb though? I've never tweaked voltage before so I don't want to fry anything.

So it's good enough to run it at 400mhz with a divider, but not at 1:1?

sorry, it's pc6400 - 800mhz, 400fsb @ 2v as on the packaging

Ok so i have a C2D e6400 and did have some Corsair ddr2-800 ram. Ran wonderful with a 1:1 400mhz fsb, cpu @ 3.2ghz stock voltage (great chip). Recent picked up a pack of that $90 Patriot 2x2gb ram from Fry's, and it will not run 1:1 @ 400mhz. Stock 266fsb with 1:1 ratio works fine, as does...
