[cite] naquaada:[/cite]I have the Asus A8N-SLI Premium. Have you tested networking with forcedeth? It crashes at large files with a kernel panic. The forcedeth-v driver from Leo4All works better. Have you installed AC-97 Audio or ALC850? I now have SPDIF out in my output list, with AC-97 I hadn't. But I've not tested it ;-)
I have an Opteron 185 CPU which is nearly the same like the FX-60 (2x,2.6 Ghz, 2x 1MB L2-Cache). I've it running at 2.86 Ghz on Zephyroth 10.5.1, on Leo4all V3 it can be pushed to 3,03 GHz. Xbench Score 177,93 without disk test @ 3,03 GHz. The ATA-133 IDE disks had a great performance on OS X, the actual ATA-100 or SATA HD's are much slower in random access. A better nForce HD driver would be handy.

I am using ALC850 from start, I also have SPDIF output. But test it cuz its not working here.
I have disabled both onboard LAN connections and using D-Link USB WiFi stick. Just to minimise hardware recognition for mac, and as it is i require only one internet receiver.
I mostly toyed with different kernels 9.2.0 , 9.2.0 sleep and 9.2.2 modbin. (9.2.0 is the best, sleep one is OK, modbin 9.2.2 crashes sometimes)
My CPU was also overclocked @ 2.8 GHz, and i was not having any issues, but currently for testing purpose i am running on stock speeds. Will see how system reacts for installation of different softwares.
Regarding SATA performance. Its perfect. The file transfer, installation is as par equivalent to other OS's speeds.
I gotta check Burning capability of my Asus SATA DVD RW. will be doing that soon.
Currently its running smooth...only problem i got .., just 2 times, in Firefox browser. The PC just hanged. No idea why.
