I have my Q6600 running right now @ 3.0ghz (factory cooler sorry), 1.35v in bios, 1.328 in windows NO vdroop during load. My 4x1GB ballistix pc2-8000 is running 4-4-4-12 @ 500mhz 2.1v. So far I am happy with this board, when I get my Ultra 120 Ex next week I'll post real oc results.
Now, does anyone know how to make coretemp work on Vista x64? Even if i run as admin it gives me the looping crash that forces me to restart the pc.
To the last poster, even if it does draw 20-40 more watts than the competition (which I doubt once you disable the wi-fi, secondary lan, firewire, and all the other useless crap), how will that equal more noise? 20-40W might put your psu into the next tier of its fanspeed but I doubt it will be that much louder, and it would be spinning just as fast once you start a game and the video card starts chugging watts.
