With my p5b it's not a matter of 'figuring out' it's a matter of this board being quite buggy and generally unstable. My last 3 boards were dfi and they could clock out the wazoo with rock solid stability... I trust DFI I've never gotten an ASUS board before this time and now I've gone through 2 of them...they are just not quality IMO. DFI has always had the best BIOS options IMO for the last few years (starting a few years ago when they introduced cmos reloaded).
