Update, for all interested parties:

I just received the board. SATA, Ethernet, Sound all work out of the
box. Frequency scaling works, though the CPU fan speed doesn't want to
vary with the CPU load, so it's always noisy, after a few hours it's
already driving me mad. But the real problem, the show stopper, is that
for some reason, my PCI TV card/tuner is not detected at all, black
hole !
So I must return it to the vendor, and try to find a different model
of motherboard, hoping everything would work this time...
