They really cannot be put any higher up on the board, but by being so far from the side, even a small graphics card like the Radeon I use will prevent you from installing RAM with it in there.
Review: Albatron K8X Pro II - Mainboard -
About Us Employment Privacy Policy. The hardware monitor shows all the necessary voltages. I'd gladly trade one of them to move around the memory slots a bit. I'm not quite sure why you'd need south bridge voltage modulation, but it's nice to have, since it might at times help stabilize the components of the SB when the PCI bus is way off in frequency. Finally, under the sixth PCI slot is where you'll find the floppy connector wedged in.
It's getting to the point where I don't care that I can't install my drive with a standard length cable, because I only use it when putting on a fresh copy of Windows and it wants my RAID drivers.

Assuming that the VRM uses the 12V line to transform down to the 1. It does, however, harbor a few interesting differences. Watch our Tech Videos. Now that the Athlon64 has finally been unveiledmanufacturers can strut their stuff, albafron earn themselves a name when it comes to bit computing.
I only wish I could afford the heating bill required to move from an outside temp of C to 34C in my room. Not that most people will need this many, considering the number of devices on board.

This makes getting the board up and running easy, especially with the included documentation. This is a step in the right direction, after the continued reliance on socket lugs in the SocketA platform.

In either case, both memory types run in a single channel memory configuration. Find More Motherboards Articles. I have issues with the placement of the DIMM slots. There is a fan header right there though if you choose albztron add an aftermarket active cooler. Beginners Guides Cases and Access.

Starting from albattron top left of the board, you'll find the external connectivity, consisting of 6 analog audio ports, 2 of the USB 2.
It has the potential to revolutionize the computing industry, and it marks one of the few times that AMD has really out done Intel big time.
As you can see, AMD has implemented a heat sink retention frame similar to the one used by Intel on all P4 boards.
The only negative I can see is that by using only two holes it might be hard to get a waterblock to balance correctly on the CPU. For a company just over a year old, Albatron has staked a name for itself under the leadership of CEO Jack Ko as a pioneer when it comes to adopting new technology.
Personally, I'd like to see more manufactures follow that example, as Kx800 can't think of albtron current devices that use these legacy connections. Not too much for latency control of the ram. This helps keep the losses and variation down, which increase with distance. Since its inception, Albatron has produced a good many enthusiast-friendly motherboards, and ;ro many users have been patiently waiting to see what Albatron has to offer before jumping into an Athlon64 motherboard of their own.
The first is seen in the screen to the above-right. Along the bottom of the board you will find one of my favorite layout features: A dipswitch is present to control which chip you are booting from.
