I was wondering if the numbers shown by PCProbe are real.
At 1.40V, the PCProbe shows ~1.36V. All other programs that I've tried show ~1.40V (CPU-Z, MBM, SpeedFan, SiSoft Sandra). If I stay in BIOS I also get ~1.40V. Wich one is for real ?

I've also heard that the temperatures reported by A8V are wrong. If so, in what direction (+ / -) and by what amount ?

Thinking of getting this board, how is it, how is it for overclocking?

Neo2 Platinum shows vcore as about 1.38 too...

I love it. Had absolutely no problems with it. It overclocks rather well. Had no problems with getting to 270 FSB (my winnie is a crappy week 37 one :(, so I can't really go far with it). The NB is very cool (I have an XP120, so the 120mm fan is partially abpve the NB heat-sink). Not sure if I would prefer it over the Neo2, but I wanted the XP120 so I went with this one.
