    2.1 isnt enough i do not think.

    both sets of my gskill and a crucial ballistix need more voltage on this board than any other board to boot properly.

    frankly i think the ram overclocking on the maximus sucks big balls.
    i have yet to see a board overclock any of my ram as good as my P5N-E SLI did.
    it would run 1200mhz 5-5-5-15 w/ 2.23v

    no other board i have tested can do that at even 2.3v with the same ram. and i have tested alot of boards.

    try this

    USE THE WHITE SLOTS ONLY

    Ai Clock Twister : AUTO - ENABLE
    Transaction Booster : AUTO - Normal Level 0 (i think thats what its call i cant remember)
    CPU Voltage : AUTO
    CPU PLL Voltage : AUTO
    North Bridge Voltage : AUTO
    DRAM Voltage : 2.10 - 2.2
    FSB Termination Voltage : AUTO
    South Bridge Voltage : AUTO
    Loadline Calibration : AUTO - ENABLED!!! - people say this messes with OC i say bullcrap, without it droop is massive and irratic
    CPU GTL Reference : AUT x67 or x63
    North Bridge GTL Reference : AUTO - x67
    DDR2 Channel A REF Voltage : AUTO DDR2 REF or +10mv
    DDR2 Channel B REF Voltage : AUTO DDR2 REF or +10mv
    DDR2 Controller REF Voltage : AUTO DDR2 REF or +10mv
    SB 1.5V Voltage : AUTO
