Abit AW8-MAX and OCZ POWERSTREAM

[ben556473]

Hello everyone. I was wondering if any of you have a phase-change setup that uses an Abit AW8-MAX motherboard or had one using this board. It has been proposed that I might be having difficulties due to incompatibilty of Mach 2 GT and this board. If someone has used this board sucessfully then I could rule this out. Also could I ask the same question regards my power supply, it's a OCZ Powerstream 600W. Thanks for your help.

Ben Anderson.

I see no reason why you'd have compatability problems with any of that hardware.

the prpblem is, and always has been, that when the mach 2 GT cools down to 35c and tries to boot up my pc the pc comes on for 0.5sec then shuts off giving P.O.S.T read out of 99 (complete power off sequence). It works fine on air. I have tried several suggestions from Phil Stanbridge who has been very helpfull and understanding, including swapping-out an Enermax galaxy but this did the same thing though i had to return it faulty anyway as it made my pc unstable (the psu reported a fault with itself) on air. The mach 2 gt was sent to Denmark but Verner found no problems with it so i intend trying a turbo-cool psu from Phill in the next week or so but if you have any other ideas i would be very gratefull. Cheers, Ben
