Detail of the BIOS settings.

Although we’re well supplied with various DDR400 modules from various manufacturers, the Asus A7N8X only works with the Corsair modules.

We’ve already discussed the details of the nForce 2 chipset in the previous article Full Power : NVIDIA Attacks With nForce2 .

In the test setup : the ATI Radeon 9700 Pro reference card.

DDR400 memory (512 MB, CL2.5) from Corsair for dual operation.
