Don't bother RMA'ing. Just wait to wc this puppy... :)
we got the bios at the lates Awardfabrik Overclock Mesiterschaft... to be honest I never tried 0402 as the board was brand new at the event and all the german Overclockers ( SOF, Stummerwinter and co) all had better results on this 531 mate. So we flashed it on first boot... too bad our sample GT is so .... (kind find the exact correct words lol)
They told us the 0402 is a bit buggy under LN2 action... I really hope Asus can get the Bclock up for the non extreme users... 227-229 ain't gonna cut it ( and that's with a lot of fidling around )
@Leeghoofd
Thanks for the info, I quess Asus have to work hard because there are some high expectations on this board.
I agree, 227-229 is nothing special, itīs still early days though, so we have to wait and see what newer bios can do.
Yeah might try under cold,but it's not good enough if this Xeon 3540 did 235 on air on the Classie... maybe the limitation is me ?
Luckily the retail price is normal for an enthousiast board, you can get it for around 320 euro's... not the 380-400 euro's we were told at CeBIT
Got my REIII on Friday and will set it up today. Will be replacing my 760 Classified so it will be interesting to see how they compare. My Classified is rock solid so the bar is pretty high for the REIII. I have a full EK waterblock on the 760 and am worried about my MB temps until I am able to get the same for the REIII.
System Specs are:
REIII
I7 980x
2 x 5970
9800 GT for Phsyix
WC loops: HK 3.0 on the 980, EK blocks on the 5970s
Thermaltake 1200W PSU
3 x 120GB OCZ Vertex Turbos in Raid 0
2 x 300GB Velcioraptures in Raid 0
HAF 932 case
the rex III are not for sale in holland
Wher gan i buy one ?
Got mine on friday too performance is on par with classified

oh wow :eek:
PINTO,
What case do you have? Looks great.
EDIT: Googled MM Ascension and found it.
@pinto
Nice looking rig you have there :up:
Any DOS Memtest versions working with the 980x?
Tempted by this board after Gigabytes unfairness... But I'm an Asus hater since all the hastle I had with their cards... Had a rampage extreme back on 775 and loved it to bits so maybe... maybe it's calling my name? wish someone would hurry up and get it in stock in the UK :(

Still waiting on my move also. As all seeing 230 max block and that is 10bclk more then my r2e. Not too bad but wished it was better, but still in lower end bios releases so hopefully it would pick up later on. Sure wished my ek full nb/sb water block would bolt up to it as that would help out some. I will wait to see more results and thanks for the ones that has posted information from their results.
@ pinto what case is that as i would like to know also.
@ RCG_Bex, hats off to you. Just looked and seen you was a female. Pretty impressive, now if my lady would be like that instead of making me sleep on the couch.......................
