In the R2E thread, it looks as if the latest BIOS has resolved the S3 sleep issue for many so I would imagine that this would/will be the same for the P6T boards.Quote:

It only mentioned resolving memory compatibility issues, no word on S3 sleep issue so I wouldn't count on it.
Is this still true or has it been fixed?Quote:

You are spot on - I got the P6T Deluxe to replace two just horrible Gigabyte EX58 Extremes, where S3 sleep mode simply did not work, period (didn't matter what the BCLK is set at). The boards had other issues as well so I got sick of them.Quote:

I'm an hour into Prime95 small FFT as I'm typing this @ 4.0GHz (19x211 @ 1.4000v) with HT on and 12GB of Dominator DDR3 - not bad.
Anyone having issues setting uclk to anything but AUTO? With even conservative settings (in line with everything else) I get no post if I define the clock. I have no issues defining any of the other settings.
I just got this mobo and wil install everything tonight. Quick question, can I run dual OS??
Can I ask you what you are installing on the MB, sound card, raid, graphics?Quote:

Everything on my sig plus i7 920, 6gb OCZ Gold 1600. I asked about dual OS because my previous P5Q Dlx coudn't do it (Express Gate messed it all up). I'll start oc'ing after I finish installing all the software and will update later.Quote:

Cheaper and hopefully with some bugs corrected :up:Quote:

You'll get mobo only. It'll come in a white box w/ foam in anti-static bag.Quote:

Not really, I never use anything besides the backplate. But the Q-connector helps a lot.
What is the Q-connector?Quote:

http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/...ELUXE-1102.zip
But if you remove the filename to just see the directory contents (for newer BIOS updates, or betas and such), it just says file not found. Anybody know how to see the directory contents?
Asus Open Box from Newegg is pretty random. The last two times I ordered one from them, I got the box and all parts. For my old P5B and my new P6T OC Palm edition. So it is up in the air.Quote:
