Asus has always made products I have never had compatibity problems with. You should be happy with it once you get it.

I have never had an urge to get any other brand board due to similar issues over the years with many many other boards of all brands..

guys... a fix has been released for some of X38 and X48 DFI boards.
http://csd.dficlub.org/forum/showthread.php?t=7739

Quote:
First off as some have already mentioned there is NO LP LT X48-T2R bios listed below but DFI Bios R&D has been notified of same. I am hoping not assured that bioses will or should be available for download Wednesday CST Usa time.

zip files already fixed The system can't display when DFI X38/X48 seties with ATI HD 4870 X2 Graphic card.
The BIOS we will official release ASAP.


LT X38-T2R --> X38AD807.ZIP
DK X38-T2R --> X38DD807.ZIP
UT X48-T2RS --> X48CD807.ZIP
UT X48-T3RS --> X48BD807.ZIP

This is absolutely all I am currently aware of or have knowledge of.

Here are a few promising posts from the above thread:

Quote:
4870x2 is working fine now even without the switch on. The new bios doesn't seem to be hurting my overclock either.
Quote:
Just flashed the new bios on my X38-T2R and it works
Thanks for all the help RGone and Praz and a big thanks to the DFi technicians working through the weekend to help us out.

Excelent Job
Quote:
All good here, got new windows running and previous OC too. All that is left is waiting for official 8.8 CCC
Hopefully Dfi will get the new LT X48 bios out soon too!

Hope the bios works, still have not seen my version posted yet.
