Asus Maximus Extreme and E8400 Owners Unite!

[chris.y2k.r1]

I've noticed an aweful lot of owners of the combination of hardware. I'd like to try and help out some of those/us who are just coming into the fray with this combination. I think that many who own this combo (Perhaps I'm wrong but I don't think so) are either coming from AMD overclocking or are just starting to take overclocking seriously and get he best result they can with the best combo they can. So with that said, let's see if we can get a nice list of working settings together to help each other out and see what kind of anamolies or common occruences we find. This should be a log of intended 24/7 settings. Please, no *OMG That's too high for 24/7 settings* type dialogue. I'd like to keep this thread as a nice clean DATA reference of which I will make a table for all of us who participated when the thread slows. Thanks... really - I appreciate anything cooperation very - truly very much. :) E8500 and Zeon bretheren are welcome too however let's keep it to that 1 very popular MOBO.


Please post VCORE,PLL,NB,VDIMM and VTT (FSB Term) and what stress testing program you use and max hours tested stable. Also, please indicate if you test was intentionally stopped or errored out. Stepping would be a bonus. Thanks folks!
