Timings are at 4-4-4-10 (but they had in fact defaulted back to 5-5-5-12). Ambient room temp is 72 +- 4 degrees. CPU is at 31C no load right now on stock intel cooler and stock intel paste.

Hawman, you might be able to get a Phenom with a BIOS flash. AMD's website doesn't list the Phenom as tested compatible in the K9N SLI Platinum but the K9N Neo-F (NF560) did. You might consider e-mailing MSI because I know the nForce 570 SLI chipset itself will support the Phenom.

In other news, the overclock I applied last night has proven successful and rock solid.

BTW Folding resumed after Orthos stopped in case you were wondering. CPU is now at 71.4W TDP. All stock voltages.

Matt, MSI are testing the bios for the Phenom ( see here http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?f...1&maincat_no=1 )

Nice overclock, im sure you can get it higher

I will go for the 400MHz bus speed when I get DDR2 800MHz RAM.

Neither the K9A or the K9N Diamond will support Phenoms... Guess I'll have to upgrade AGAIN.

And you are still an AMD fan? The LGA775 platform has been here for nearly three years and isn't going to change anytime soon. Maybe AMD should go back to making processors that are compatible with Intel motherboards and chipsets.

So why will the Platinum work with the phenom but not the Diamond? Shouldnt it be the other way around with the Diamond being better than the Platinum?

**TheMatt** · 01-14-2008, 06:03 PM

It is the chipset and BIOS that determine if your board can support the Phenom. There must be something about the NF590 that doesn't like the Phenom.

Don't you have the platinum Hawman?

HawMan · 01-15-2008, 01:49 AM

Yeah i do, And i just saw on the MSI website that the BIOS that was under testing for the phenom have had no result.

Tell them to hurry up before Gigabyte is your new best friend.
