There must be a different makes of this board.. because ive had people say it only supports 800fsb..

is that because its an older version because

asus says other wise.. and it claims to support the core 2 duo..

I have the rev 1 of it paired with a Pentium D 820 and i like it. You can´t overclock with it though. You can adjust the FSB but none of the voltages and you can´t enable any multipliers. Rev 1.x doesn´t support conroe and only goes up to fsb 800 while Rev 2.xx is certified for FSB 1066 and conroe. If you intend to do anything other than just running it, i´d get something else. If you just need a stable board and aren´t overclocking or looking for lots of features at a good price then this is your board. I got mine for 23€ including shipping - i just couldn´t resist. :lol:
