    I'm also very interested in how well this motherboard does...I currently have Super Talent DDR3 1866 memory, Q6600 (G0) and the Asus P5K3-Deluxe running very well...but if X38 is better overall, I might jump on it.

    I had that same exact issue with my P5K-Deluxe...but this P5K3 doesn't...I hope Asus fixes this as vdroop control is very important to enthusiasts...I'm awaiting on an RMA of the DFI P35 Lanparty board and hope it's vdroop control still works well.

    when i had p5k dlx, the droop dampner worked pretty good no less then 0.01v droop

    but sata issues made me give it up for the abit, which has worse droop.

    you are right though 90% of boards suffer from this to some degree or another

    waiting for some more results.
