Awesome. Will give it a shot... again.
I've searched google for it but can't find the measuring point. It obviously exists since it's been measured. It would have been nice if the OP had marked the measuring points in the first post.
Allright, I found minimum voltages for my 515x7 1:1 settings with 1102 now and here they are:

Not silicon, but he crushed the substrate holding the silicon. That's one dead board. Should have used DIMM slots as fulcrum.
I used the Blue DIMM slot as Fulcrum and a piece of plastic from the cpu side. The heat sink was attached to the die so strong after more than 4 hours in the freezer.
I used real force with a screw-driver and a toothbrush from blue DIMM and I saw around 1/5 of the NB green pvc/pins detaching from the board. I thought the mobo will still work, but I was wrong. I wrapped the screwdriver around paper tower and I stick it between the green PVC and lower side the chip. I twisted the screwdriver and I saw some movement. I put some force on all sides the die came off attached to the heatsink.
I cleaned and reapplied the new TIM and put everything back, but the motherboard was already dead. When I start it up, it powers all the fans, but I only get "CPU INIT" on LCD and the lights on the ballistix tracers are not moving.
Do you think ASUS will send me a replacement?

You guys have any recommendations for a 2x2GB set that works fine with this board? It seems the OCing capability is limited due to 4x1GB sticks. :(
We are, but you screwed it up. Not saying I've never been there, but I got a collection of dead parts to remind me to be cautious.
BTW, I was the one who originally meantioned freezing the board to remove the heatsink. It worked a treat for me. I noticed that my RMA board was frozen when I got it(was still winter here, board had condensation on it), and it came off with ease.
Now, today I had the chance to play with another board, and IT was much harder to remove than my first, but still it just popped right off.
Mind you both time, the board had not been run for very long, allowing the tim to set.
Mind you, in the end, my boards are SE's, not the regular boards, so that might have something to do with it...
I just dumped Vista SP1 and installed XP pro for the first time on my MF. I have an unknown device identified as "on Intel(R) ICH9R LPC Interface Controller - 2916". All of the add on devices are installed and working properly (unlike on Vista). I downloaded the Intel chipset install utility, the soundmax drivers, Intel matrix manager for my raid HDs, etc. I have not loaded the Asus drivers from the CD. This device has to be something on the motherboard not recognized by XP. Can someone shed any light on what this could be?
I used mine for about 6 months and I freezed it twice for 3 and 4-5 hours. If I ever get a replacement, the first thing I am going to do is to put it the freezer.
I am going to place an order for ASUS P5Q Deluxe this weekend, so I will have something to play with(without trying to remove the heatsink). P5Q Deluxe has only two fan connector which I don't like.
Newegg has XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 120mm for $26.99 after $10.00 Mail-In
Rebate + FS. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835233003. Does some know if it fits P5Q Deluxe and miximus formula?
what cooling are you using? ive got a ss phase on my cpu. perhaps that is what accounting for higher cpu. also im on maximus formula... though i flashed to rampage for higher fsb. just ran a quick test tonight.

max fsb.
we were! right up until the point to where you broke your hardware in such a way that asus would actually care about the warranty. :rofl:
stop trying to ruin it for the rest of us :p:
For everyday use and what not... no, I don't notice anything different.
If I were to bench my system then yes I would notice a difference as I used tighter subtimings with my crucials since they were a very nice set of D9's.
I like mine a lot and I'm going to run 2x2 until 4x2 becomes more popular and prevalent.
Can some say whether or not the Rampage mod gives this board better fsb? Sorry if this question was asked before.
