asus essentio computers model cm-1630 have oem mother board m4a78lt-m which is a different mb and not the same as another one already in your database m4a78lt-m le details here http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f15/solved-wondering-the-truth-about-asus-motherboard-m4a78lt-m-someone-help-please-643206.html thanks in advance

Thanks for the likes. As a day old newbie I didn't even know they existed until someone gave me one. I would love to here your suggestions and thoughts on improvements, tweaks, and future projects here... http://www.hwbot.org/forum/showthread.php?t=40403 P.S. I hope I am not in violation of any rules in posting the forum link in the comments field of this submission Thanks in advance,

As a day old newbie on this site, thanks to whomever gave this submission a "like" http://hwbot.org/submission/2257353_japrestef_3dmark03_geforce_7950_gt_agp_20235_marks and let me suggest this thread as a possible "Best mb flash unlocks before OC'g" discussion venue (or if one exists the mod can move this there) because I am looking for what should be my next project(s) after the 2 I describe here. I am quite proud to have done the above submission on just the 250W original oem PSU and all stock cooling in this 10 year old hyper-threading XP rig based off a Compaq retail S5400NX computer that I mb bios flash unlocked to a ASUS P4G800-V so that I could max upgrade to a P4 3.4 EXTREME EDITION CPU and add max memory for a total of 2 MB of Patriot Dual Extreme Performance sticks at 2-3-2-5. Add to that an XFX 7950GT AGP as the max AGP GPU (ostensibly in its day it held the claim as the fastest AGP ever made and hands down beats even today's XFX non OC'd HD4650 AGP) For the submission I did overclock the 7950 AGP unlike the CPU which was left at stock settings because I was worried as a newbie about rumors that the AGP/PCI bus can be a fragile issue in OC'g and end up corrupting the hard drive. I hope to get feedback on what more I should do. P.S. I have yet to start submitting on another rig that I just did something similiar to but with AMD.... i.e. a retail ASUS ESSENTIO CM-1630 mb flash unlocked to ASUS M4A78LT-M permitting me to upgrade from Athlon II X2 220 to Phenom II X2 555 Black Edition which I managed to unlock into a very stable 3 core CPU and a stable 4 core but only with freq reduction resulting in equivalent performance as the 3 core and now just upgraded to Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition all on original oem PSU and stock cooling and still on mb integrated graphics. Again any suggestions with the AMD rig especially as to what the end of the line fastest GPU is for it that I should get would be helpful. Thanks to all in advance.

Turrican, Thx and very cool how you loaded the mb pics into that page and for the rest of us who have never heard "bone stock" before http://classiccars.com/Community/Glossary.aspx#b sounds like what we say here "bare-bones" or "as off-the-shelf" Thx again

Dear Mod, I'm new here and want to make sure I am doing things right: 1) When submitting results with HW at stock settings vis-a-vis CPU freqs, and GPU freqs etc, am I correct in leaving those fields blank even though others seem to fill in that data field with the stock setting ? 2) If the CPU and GPU come with a stock fan should the result be submitted as cooling:stock or as colling:air ? I could find no place on website defining what is stock vs air. 3) my rig is basically a retail Compaq Presario S5400NX but I unlocked the mb by flashing the bios over to OEM ASUS so now CPU-ID and Futuremark Systeminfo all show it the same as its bootup splash screen does as a P4G800-V http://reviews.cnet.com/motherboards/asus-p4g800-v-motherboard/1707-3049_7-30567063.html I believe that is how I should list it when I submit If you agree would you add P4G800-V to the mb lists? Right now I have submitted under ASUS and chipset 865G. Thanks in advance,
