just passed 24 hours of small FFTs w/ 0 issues. The last board must have been a defect. Wish i got a pic of the pwm area but it seriously looked like solder got splashed on and it bridged 2 of the fets.
this buid was for pure simplicity and ease of use as it is going to a customer and if the bios were to reset, the pc would be a piece of cake to restore the proper settings... as you are prompted in post that something happened i.e. cmos reset or failed oc, you can hotkey in a profile and boot from it
settings:
3359Mhz - flipped the 2 dip switches on the motherboard
