I recently got a new one as well and Im impressed so far. One issue has cropped up which likmark has also noticed. The multipliers wont change from stock when trying to OC. Bar that, a nice motherboard overall. Plus it looks nice! (beefy hs all the way)

I absolutely loved that board when I was running my FX62. It has tons of settings in the BIOS for overclocking and is very stable. You will definitely enjoy the board.

Well I love mine, nice setup and cool blue lights / o.c. capabilities. but there's a couple things that i dont understand...
A) my first setup was 462 socket 3200/A7N8x (yep. from socket 462 to Am2 lol) and from start up to windows is faster than my new setup with Crosshair / 64x2 6000+ . Is that normal? about 25-30 seconds boot up time to windows.
B)and as you guys can see in my sig.. my 3dmark score is kinda low, about 5300+, Is this because of my graphic card?
monitorkeeper, Have you ran 3dmark06 on your setup? if so, whats your score if you dont mind me askin.
Love it, only thing is that WC'ing the mosfets is pretty expensive :(
