I'd get all three of the December OSKAR_WU beta BIOS' and test to find which one works best for you. The previoius BIOS', both official and beta, won't give you the FSB headroom of those released by Oskar in December.

I'm using the nVidia drivers on the CD, I've yet to find an official or non-official set of drivers that work any better.

Standard rules apply IMO as far as burnin, volts, etc.

Don't set 5:4, use 1:1. With my Infinity (nearly the same as the LP), setting async nearly cost me a BIOS chip. Async doesn't seem to work on these boards and appears to lead to BIOS corruption.
