I'm still waiting to get an answer from Intel on this one (assuming
they decide to answer, which they should ... eventually ...)

So far I know the ABIT IC7 boards suffer from this problem. The
ASSUMPTION is that it's an INTEL chipset issue, not an ABIT issue, but
I havent been able to confirm this.

Maybe someone with an ASUS P4C800 Deluxe or P4C800-E Deluxe could let
me know what their experiences have been. That would help determine if
the problem is intel chipset based, as many suspect.

On a related issue, if this IS a problem that effects the 875P
chipset, do experienced users feel the 875P chipset, even if PAT is
disabled, is still a better bnoard when compared to the 865 chipsets ?

Thanks

I'm running a P4C88 Deluxe with 4 sticks of Kingston PC 400 512 Meg .
I have no problem with PAT, it works fine.

Well, I have an INTEL D875PBZT, with all 4 memory slots populated (4 x 512MB
Dual Channel DDR400), and PAT is enabled and works fine.

Tony:

I have a IC7-G. Where do you determine if PAT is on or off? Is that
under Advanced Chipset Features, Game Accelerator.

Thanks Gary

you can use a third party app like Sandra (although it is buried pretty deep
in Sandra) or CPU-Z which is available at http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php or
on my ftp server at the address below.

I still haven't figured out if Pat is male or female?

Please follow Tom's suggestions, I read about this issue and I'm
trying to get it resolved before buying the board, so I dont know
exactly where to look.

I hope ABIT is working toward resolving it, the IC7 series seems like
the best 875P board out there, but I've had boards with memory
problems before, the last thing I'm going to do is invest in a new
memory problem. I work with graphics and video a lot and need to be
able to max out my memory.

Resolving *what* exactly? The issue you're discussing isn't specific to the
IC7 series, it's a factor in any board using the 875 (and 865 when
pseudo-PAT is enabled) chipsets.

> I work with graphics and video a lot and need to be

Reading some of your other posts you seem to have got the idea that the IC7
won't run PAT with all four memory sockets populated, period. That isn't
accuratet. It will run with PAT enabled on four identical sticks of good
quality PC3200 at default (or moderately overclocked) speeds.

What you won't be able to do is overclock to the same extent you would with
two sticks while keeping PAT and eventually, stability. This, however, is
far from a "problem" that is unique to the IC7 series, it's been a factor
with virtually every motherboard and memory platform since the PC, and the
sport of overclocking, was created.
