How do you like the mobo Dumo? Is performance on par with the 790FX chipset? How about RAM overclocking to high speeds like 2000mhz? Any performance gains going from low cas at 1333 vs cas 9 at 2000 speeds?

Don't know yet if it quicker than 790FX, but overall board really easy to overclock NB and memory. Only thing is my Corsair 1600 C6 can't really scale up to 1930+ with decent cas.
Need to get those GTX2:D
Max Vcore 1.85V

Dumo did run your Thuban on this mobo? I installed mine and it boots fine -all default but i cant even OC 1MHZ then it does not boot. This is so frustrating. I am not the best OC but this is not good. My memory i even de-clocked to 1066.

OK thanks for the info. Can you recall your settings? O yes my CPU is the following: CCBE CB 1008FPAW. Do you know if they good or not?

O yes Dumo . Was there a option for you to disable turbo?
With the latest bios (Asus only released 2 bios for this board so far) I still can't disable turbo with bios 0603:(
Turbo V EVO not working either

so how easy was it to unlock the 2 other cores
Swanie

Yes the same here. TurboV not working and no option to disbale Turbo. Well got it to OC on this mobo. If i leave the CPU Ratio on Auto and set the CPU to 242 i get 3388 Mhz and then the Turbo kicks in it goes to 3812Mhz.
When i set the CPU Ratio to 14.0 and the CPU to 272 i get 3812.8mhz. I boots and all seems fine( although my games crash to desktop :exe stopped working..etc.) More testing to come
