    Hope all of this is right for you and helps!!! Have crossed posts a bit that are hindered about here!

    1304



    1304 is std and stock on BX rev 305! So many more bios to come i bleive but 1334 must of been beta with the date and number and problems!!!

    Thats what i got and did 4.6GHz on my E6700 ES!

    No thinking of putting some hard mods on the bord and see if i can touch 5Ghz!

    There are mods to unlock the bios fully!

    Erm EIST is an option in Bios i think...i can't remember fully of top of my head as i have done it with the cristal cpu thing.

    Edit found it!!!

    How to: Disabling SpeedStep with Conroe ES Steppings 4 and 5

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Here it is gentlemen, playing with CPU MSRs can be fun....

    Steps:
    1) Open CPU-Z so that you can see the active multiplier switch in realtime
    2) Open CrystalCPUID -> Function -> MSR Editor
    3) Type 0x000001A0 in the MSR Field
    4) Click "RDMSD" (read)
    5) Copy the upper 32-bits of the EDX resigister to the box below (should be 0x00000060 or similar)
    6) Copy the lower 32-bits to the box below (should be 0x63940089 or similar)
    7) Change the 3 (as in 0x63940089) to a 1
    8) Click WRMSR (write)

    You CPU's maximum multiplier (default on XE is 11x) is now set and the CPU will not step down. I see no difference in idle temperatures doing this. Long term affects have not be judged yet as I just did this about 1 hour ago. CPU seems to respond quicker in benchmarks and doesn't show the tendency to step down at the "wrong" time.
