Re: ASUS Tusl2-c not detecting FX5900XT

Indeed. Memory and bus bandwidth are key. Unfortunately even though I’ve modded the BIOS of my MS6191 to allow changing the FSB, the system won’t boot at the next option above 100MHz (120MHz), so I’ve run out of ideas. I can’t find a better Slot A board, at least for a reasonable price.
