Wish I could say I am still using this board, but I'm not.
BSOD city with memory, ANY memory, tried 5 different brands, no go. Not too upset. Most boards work for me out of the box and I have an advanced understanding of memory timing, voltage, bios options, etc etc. But like I said, not too upset, pretty good track record with everything I've ever done other than this board and flashing a shuttle board about 5 years ago that, didn't work out too well.
BTW, I have this board for sale if anyone wants it, $170 shipped. Perfect shape.
But was using a QE6700 with it. Had it at 3.33GHz, idle 54 - 55 or so on all cores with a Tuniq Tower 120.
I didn't get a chance to push the board as I was trying to get it stable first, so, not sure I can really answer any questions but I'm pretty sure I could have pushed my quad to 3.5 - 3.6 easy.
Moved to a Intel BX2, not one problem other than, temps are high, idle is 65+ on average per core. Had to use stock heatsink with it as the Tuniq does not clear the caps near the socket.
