    I was using 1.675v. Don't try that at home.

    It is an ES chip, so it may not be typical of what people get with retail 6600's. With 1.5v, CPU temp is around 42C. Both Asus Probe and the Core Temp program are in agreement.

    The board does not seem to have bad voltage droop, which is probably why I can clock my CPU's a little higher. As someone else mentioned, the board may overvolt a little.

    One thing about running dual Prime. Conroe will heat up very quickly. Kentsfield is much worse. I'm not sure if Asus Probe is accurate, but I was seeing temps in the low 80's while running quad-Prime. And that was with VCore at only 1.45v! Kentsfield has a Max Tcase temp of 100C.

    Wow, out of pocket only $100. That's really good.
