Double-sided or PC100 RAM made no difference. I can tighten the RAM timings all the way and I end up with a system running at around TX speeds (171MB/s) which tells me the DIMM clock defaults to 66MHz on this board for whatever reason..
The manual has an option for setting the DIMM clock explained in the BIOS section, but the BIOS I am on (latest) does not have this option enabled.
I really wish there was a way I could hack this option back in?
I will also use a discrete PCI card tonight to see if it makes a difference.. Not sure what to go for though, these are the 1995-1998 PCI cards I have:
Matrox Millennium
Matrox Mystique + Rainbow Runner
Matrox Millennium II
Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 PRO (Virge/DX)
ATI Xpert@Work (Rage Pro)
