Sounds like a decent chip. You should definitely not be unhappy with 5 ghz on AIR. It wasn't that long ago that people needed sub zero to prime at 5 ghz, and here we are running 4.5 ghz on auto voltages.
Is that BIOS voltage setting or load setting in cpu-z?
Unless you're trying to use sub-zero, I wouldn't risk getting another chip only to find out it is worse than before, unless it's pretested somehow.
I would guess this fix could help some, from Asus bios thread.
2. If you are receiving random BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) under Windows 7 OS without any warning at stock or what appears to be stable OC settings, please download the following patch from Microsoft to have the problem fixed (98% fix rate): This hotfix will be in SP1.

@ Sniper
Great bit of info :up: this would explain 2 small issues I had & thought the OS was borked so re loaded with SP1 & one went away... The other I will test out later more of a niggle than an issue.
Out of curiosity, those that have no problems booting up after a shut down. Do you have your eSATA, USB 3.0 options disabled ? Also, where did you stick your OS drive, i got my SSD on the SATA 3.0 (6gb/s) port - white SATA port. Cause i got everything enabled, lol.
@ lsdmeasap
I just done a funny thing trying to get my 2500K past 5.4GHz I borked the bios & the recovery bios F5x got me going again back onto F6d. Afterward I thought I'd update the backup to F6d & not paying enough attention somehow managed to swap main for backup can you tell me how I can switch back.
Cool feature either way but I just dont remember what I did.
I have everything enabled but not using my SSD yet might build my UD5 into a case this weekend & fit my Vertex so will let you know if I have any problems.Quote:

Yup they do like 20 second boot.Quote:

Edit I take that back.... voltage overshoot is huge testing with LinX, was ok with prime!...... Dont use it
If you get a chance try a raid setup with 7 Ult its simply awesome. I had one here a while back with two Corsair force F60 drives that was retarded fast. Biggest improvement to a comps performance I have seen in a while.
I'm in limbo with SSD's atm, I love raid have always used it sliced & R0 for my OS & mirror for my good stuff but with new faster SSD's coming out all the time I'm just going to wait till they drop in price & keep adding drives untill the tech levels out a bit & the price is less than a new car lol. Some sick drives out there atm :DQuote:

yea i just did there is no internal pll option in F6
If you're still on it,
Can you manually put CPU PLL to 1.9v instead of 1.8, and see if that does the same thing in letting higher multi's work?
http://www.fileden.com/files/2009/12...p67aud5.f6.zip
But I have no idea why they would remve this option!
give me a sec
Someone just tested and said it didn't help with higher multis....
But does PLL Overvoltage reappear in the BIOS if you change the Sleep mode setting ?
(edit)
while you guys are at it, can you see if the cold boot double post/loop, after a hard power off (like, unplugging the Power supply/mains) has been resolved at least?
Chip #2 on the way :)
If your talking about changing from S3 to S1, then no the pll overvoltage doesnt reappear afterward.
Nice. Any idea of batch.Quote:

Level 1 voltage in F6 looks like it has been eased back a bit but cant 100% tell as I can only run 4.9 without int pll so maybe the chip isnt loading as much:shrug: Level 2 now works but spikes voltage bigtime dont use it.
Oh Yeah, twice the profiles.:D
LOL, You thing just like me :DQuote:
