Do you CRASH at AUTO, or is it just that you'd prefer to set the voltages?...
When i set the FSB through the AI Overclocker app and leave it on AUTO or set to one of the lower available voltages the bios always reports 1.4V on reboot and crashes.

This seems like something Asus should fix because it reports one setting in the gui and applies a different one after reboot. I'm going to hammer on them from that angle, it seems dangerous to the chip and other hardware if it's not applying the setting it says it should.
