A little more info on the OC Dashboard, please?
Such as, how does it connect, both internally and externally?
Where is it supposed to be mounted externally? How long is the cord that attaches it to the mobo?
Does it fit in a slot, or is it free standing, or is it like an ASUS dashboard which mounts in a slot or can be made freestanding?
Does this mobo have an on-board speaker? The diagnostic l.e.d. is in a strange position that would be nearly out of sight with the cases I have. It's probably just fine with an open test bench, bit in a normal enclosed & windowed case?
I wonder how much (or little) it would have been to slap an l.e.d. on the OC Dashboard? It seems to me that it would be an appropriate, and excellent addition to the OC Dashboard so you could immediately see the diagnostic code, right there with the OC set/reset controls.
