Thank you for the Link to new BIOS 303.
As far as I can say, there is no improvement in overclocking. Max BCLK is still 214 with my CPU.
But this Board still rocks!

Do you have any thermal throttling on the 303 BIOS at 214 BCLK when you check with the i7 Turbo app under load? You may not with being on watercooling.Quote:

How many users here have contacted Asus about turbo throttling issues with the P6T7? Juan Jose is the Asus rep here on XS and he was very helpful getting this issue fixed for the Asus P6T Deluxe v1.Quote:

Edit: Two weeks ago this is what JJ had to say about the P6T v2 boards:
"Hopefully if things slow down a little in our RD / Bios team we will be able to provide it within the next 2 weeks. There might be a possibility that we will release this updated bios (non release as a test bios only) for all P6 Variant boards."
A fix might be a lot closer than you realize. The P6T Deluxe v1 is a great board now with the special release 0006 bios.
I already wrote to him. Hopefully there will be more people in the near future to do the same. At this time though I guess there are only few people which have this board already.Quote:

This thread has died, just writing something to keep it alive!
I'll help - just bought the motherboard, and I wonder do I need to change TIM on it?...
Turbo throttling on this board is worse than P6T6. Multiplier is 20.5 on 3520 running Linpack. (CPU drops from 4200 to 4100). Also for some strange reason this board brickwalls at about 200 BCLK. The pipes get hot too!
any newer bios then 0305 arround the world?
I have no idea... Is 0305 better than 0303 btw?Quote:

yeah that's odd. Well, i decided not to change it and it looks like it was the right thing to do - the stock cooling sytem does its job very well.Quote:

If any more special bios versions come my way, I will be sure to share them.
