I've been working with the Maximus III Formula for a few weeks now and am so impressed I thought I share some air results thus far.

Vantage required that I lower the GPU core and memory clocks a bit.
Raising the BCLK to 220 in the bios and setting memory to stock DDR3-2200 would not pass Vantage but it did all the rest.

I've now purchased a i5 750 that I have installed in the board so I'll post back later with those results and see just how far the BCLK goes on this board. Extreme Cooling results are coming as well just can't seem to get as high as I'd like stable:rolleyes:
