Are there any good p35 mobo that already support 45nm without having to d/l the bios flash? I need 1 for gaming.

Thank You
 
Most newer P35's should have a newer BIOS then when they first came out, so they should support 45nm processors out of the box.
 
while we are talking about the bios, is there anything that gets stored there apart from the bios settings?

like if i reset the bios (take the battery out), will it do anything else to my computer that i would not want?

The only time that would effect real use of your computer would be if you had a RAID array setup using the onboard RAID controller, had your SATA/IDE hard drives configured to run in a certain mode, or had your system overclocked/tweaked. All of these can be fixed though, and then your system will be back the way it was before.
 
ok thanks very much for that.

so i guess if i went totally crazy with overclocking and my computer wouldnt boot then it would be best to reset the cmos/bios?

P35 boards automatically reset the BIOS settings if it detects that the overclock has failed, so theres no need to manually reset it.
 
hmm ok.

well i was gonna get a p35. but everyone said there wasnt much point. just a P31. would it be worth getting a p35?

sorry to mkjaekmi for jacking his thread.
 
np cf is family

That's the problem if I buy a non flashed bios then it'll be pain to get a different cpu. I was planning to buy extreme core 2 quad and getting p35 would've been half the price of x38's.
