Eva2000 thanks sooo much for this thread, it has helped me oc my chip in record time.

You mentioned that you dont know what the reference settings are for but I noticed you've been playing around with CPU PLL. Did it make a difference with your overclocks? Has made none to mine so far.

I previously had a Gigabyte DS4 and could never get my chip truly stable @ 3600, couldn't even boot at 400*8 with a 4:5 divider. With this board I've stabilized my oc with these settings in no time! Awesome board!! Only downside is that my temps are 5c higher than DS4 but thats a small price to pay. And alas no more COLD BOOT issues. DS4 owners... go get this board.
