It would interest me why are so different problems with the nForce 4 chipsets and how to recognize the differences between nForce 4, nForce 4 Ultra, nForce 4 SLI, nForce 410, nForce 430. Does it belong to the onboard chips? My nForce 3 and nForce 4 SLI boards have Realtek ALC850 Audio and Marvell 88E1115 LAN, they're working 100% including SATA. Another nForce 4 board without SLI has Realtek ALC655 Audio and Realtek RTL8201CL LAN and it's also working prefect. A friend has an AM2 board which also shows nForce 4 as chipset, Realtek Audio ALC850 Audio works but not LAN, I think it was an Attensic chip or something else. How about a little nForce 4 differences list to compare the problems?
