not sure what you mean or why you would draw that conclusion from my answer.

You said the classy runs 4x4890 fine, no need for that asus stuff. I thought that Asus board had 2 nf200 chips vs the Classy without. So I deduced that the difference between the boards being the nf200 chips was the mitigating factor in your statement "we don't need that Asus stuff".

Its apparent by your last response that I was wrong and it has more to do with the simple fact that the Classified runs the 4x4890's fine.

Gotta remember, Supes is a noob4life forgive the noob who's still sportin s775

haha, no worries. i have also been up for all but 3 days straight so i thought i might have just been missing something.

but yeah, my statement was simply based on the fact that 4x4890's run fine on the Classified, i no idea about the P6T7 WS. but since you mention it, that is a good question.

one school of thought is that 1 NF200 chip hinders performance slightly from what people have tested, so two would further hinder performance.

the other school of thought would be that somehow having two working in unison might help the 4x4890 setup due to so much data being pushed from 4 cards.

my guess is there will be no benefit going from a single NF200 (Classified) to a dual NF200 (P6T7 WS) as i believe they both just end up pushing the data to the IOH through the same BUS. obviously empirical testing is the only way to find out though...who's got a P6T7 WS they want to lend me for a weekend of testing
