I chose my parts carefully (Listed below) based on what I read here and in other places about this mobo (Parts list below). When I saw that I could build an XP gaming rig with a brand new current model motherboards I jumped at it. Overall Review: Summary, I did my homework with this. The header toward the back "shares" with two of the rear ports. The box lies, there are not 10 USB ports there are 8. Need to be careful with your cooler choice. A liiiiitle tight around the CPU socket. 20 PIN ATX power connector is in an odd place. 775I65G DRIVER VIDEO WINDOWS 7 DRIVERSIf you stick with low density 400Mhz DIMMS, and a CPU with an 800Mhz Front Side Bus (FSB) and an AGP 8X or onboard graphics you should have no problems in XP/98 (after the chipset drivers are installed, see below)Ĭons: - Chipset drivers just don't work properly in Windows XP SP3. ![]() Onboard graphics if you aren't building a vintage gaming rig (Like running an old C&C or P of S machine that needs XP/98) Perfect for a Windows 98/XP build (NOT WINDOWS 7) 775I65G DRIVER VIDEO WINDOWS 7 MANUALFlexible BIOS with lots of manual settings if you want them Very wide CPU compatibility if you know what you're doing. ![]() Review is for the R2.0 but the layout and components seem to be the same so I think pros and cons still apply. I would LOVE a re-issue of its big brother, the Conroe865PE. This re-release certainly is something else: who would think of releasing an AGP board on the year 2013? No joke, I'm tempted to pick one as a backup for my R2.0. It sees some action when my brother comes over to play RTS vs me. I later replaced it with the Conroe865PE when I upgraded to a Core 2 Quad (the VRMs on the 775i65G couldn't handle the overclock) but I still have it in use paired with a Pentium E5800 (wolfdale) and a HIS HD4350 AGP in a low profile case. We thought AGP would hold on for another 10 years or so (lol, yeah right). 775I65G DRIVER VIDEO WINDOWS 7 PLUSThe first system I build with this was a Pentium D805 overclocked beyond 4Ghz (FSB was 205 or so) plus an AiW X800XT AGP from a previous build. That's Asrock for you, always thinking of the quirky customer. Or a modern board released in 2013 that ships with a floppy connector. Overall Review: I have owned the R2.0 version of this board almost since it was released and this is one of the boards that shows Asrock's trademark ingenuity: imagine a board drafted for Pentium 4s that by its EOL gets Core 2 Quad support. CPUs with 1066FSB will force RAM to run at 3:2 (177Mhz) no matter what setting you select on bios. ![]() If you plan to overclock stick with dual cores. A big plus.Ĭons: - Core 2 micro-architecture support requires CL2.5 RAM. Apparently they fixed the slow boot of R2.0.
