Heh, don't get me started on that.....I was being held back by the INSANE vcore flux on the P4C800-E and I wasn't even close to being able to find my max overclock because of it. I loved the board in every other way, but it was just time for me to try something else. I guess I was just unlucky this time around, as not everyone with this board gets stuck with one that artifacts. The truth is that I was gonna be getting a MAX3 instead but time and money were running low before a LAN i was going to and I needed SOMETHING.....so here I am. Just to give you an idea of the flux I was experiencing.....if I set the vcore to 1.75v in the BIOS is would bounce back and forth between 1.78v and 1.65v ON IDLE and drop all the way down to 1.62v on max load.....not really what I'd call tolerable.Quote:

Unless I can somehow find someone to sell me a droop modded P4C800-E or do the mod for me I'm not going to bother with another one of those boards, which is too bad, because it was a GREAT motherboard. I'm gonna have to go with the MAX3 for the replacement for this thing in less then a month.....cus the one main issue with the MAX3 is the vdimm but Abit is willing to cross ship you a temp board and do the volt mod for you, under warrantee.
Bah, too much off topic.....but I do thank you for your concern.
EDIT: I just went and registered and I REALLY love the layout of the site and how much detail it asks for when you submit scores. Kudos to you guys on this beauty. :toast:

EDIT: Heh, just ran PiFast with two Prime95's going with the 2.8C only sitting at 3.29GHz and what did I get to show for it??? 95 seconds. :D Hmm, it MIGHT have something to do with the fact that both CPU's are sitting at a steady 100% usage.....just maybe. ;)
Ministry wants to be the #1 ranking site. To accomplish that a LOT of work is putt into it (especially Thorry). Always nice when it's apreciated.
