Can anyone confirm that when putting the NB voltage and co on auto that these per definition are the lowest values possible eg for the NB 1.2 and that these aren't overvolting for no reason like on the Commando board...

Why the heck didn't asus include a readout on all important voltages, temps...

Also for the Flash problems , never flash from within Winblows nor flash when the rig is overclocked plz
