901 bios is CRAP, kept crashing in 3Dmark05, I couldn't get a single clean run. Flashed back to 703: 14.4K with dual GTX. 1K improvement over the DFI NF4 and this is with PEG Link mode disabled, so the vid cards aren't being OC'd by the mobo.

agreed. 901 went haywire when running 3dmark05, scores were all over the place. 703 is the best way to go at the moment.Originally Posted by HKPolice

Couple of questions about OC stability:
When changing the K8 to NB multiplier down to 3X (600) or whatever...
1... is there a need to also adjust the SB to NB frequency or should that remain @ 1000? (I think I read the "leave @ 1000" somewhere but I forget where now)
2. How about the link mode: Auto? 16/16, or 8/8..or does this matter?

1. DO NOT change this, if I run anything lower than 1000 for SB to NB, 3d becomes totally unstable (I think this is a SLI thing). 3dmark05 will run, but FEAR will crash.
2. Link mode at Auto or 16/16
