If the 2200+ is the 2400 and 2600 should also be unlocked. Whats the max Vcore on that mobo?

2.2v is the cpu max
i don't need to go that high though at 1.85v i get 15x 140 which = 2100mhz i was just throwing out # i will see what the board can really do after i finish installing progs since this is a fresh instal of xp

The 8K9A goes to 2.2v, not 2.0v? U sure? :)

If so, I might give that board a try ;)

Hey King, will your board actually give 2.0v? Mine maxes out at 1.95v even when setting it to 2.0v. :(

So you can set it to 2.0v in the BIOS, then boot up and measure it as ~2.0v in windows?

Hmmmm... maybe I've got a bad board. :(

Were the hell did you guys bought that mobo ? I've been looking for one, but now im more likely to go with the NForce 2 mobo from Epox or Leadtek or Asus depending on their time to market ;)
