Had this board a year ago...don't think two 4770's would work too well in crossfire as the pci-e layout is 1 x16 and 1 x4 and these are older 1.0 slots, so effectivly x8 and x2 by todays standard...

FWIW= Ambient about 25c

I just got one of those 4x Kolance shrouds with the same idea in mind... but the fan hole spacing is off on the shroud (estimated guess I'd say it's 17mm). Just a heads up in case you go that route.

For me, cold boot instability came down to vMCH.... try raising it 1 or 2 notches.

I've built 6 or 7 systems with the "R" board and so far all rev 1.0 north bridge coolers faced one way and the rev 1.1's the other.... all run just fine so there probably is no "wrong way".

I was getting this while playing Far Cry 2... sounded like it was coming from the socket area, but i used some tygon tubing (one end to ear, moved other end around socket area to isolate the noise)...

The UD3 & UD3R share the same bios (F3) while the UD3P has a seperate bios (F4).

Yea...I hear the same thing under heavy load (stock volts right now to) and it seems to be coming from around the top vreg heatsink...right about where PcCI2iminal lost his mosfet :(

D'oh......I just re-read my post...I meant the xtra beep is a little longer than the post beep lol.

Sounds like you still have C1E enabled (drops multi to 6 when idle). Put a load on cpu and see if the multi goes up.
