    Hopefully next BIOS will fix this. This is why I moved my OS from RAID to a single HDD. But yes, it really sucks not having RAID with high OCs.

    Tin Tin I hope it's o.k. if I post my settings here I don't want to hijack your thread. Also, I just got a different Q6600 G0, I can't remeber the FPO batch but the Packdate is 08/04/07 and It was a L273A6xx (I can't remember the last two numbers).

    I had no problem installing on RAID 0 with the original BIOS (0112?) or the newest. However, boot time into XP is noticably slower than my 939 system.

    It comes more,
    CL4-4-4-12 DDR1200 @2.55V, superpi 1M passed, a quickrun direct boot into windows
    My rams are not so strong, but only on this MB can do such benchmark
    It is running at Performance level =5, and not so-relaxed sub-imings

    Superpi1M passed

    I played this with some ice water

    here we go, start from 475X9: 4275MHz, idle temp: 11C, 11C, 7C, 10C

    Vcore = 1.700V (BIOS) <==max in BIOS
    actual = 1.664V (idle)




    4367MHz pass superpi 1M


    4438MHz cpuz validation


    already maxed-out the Vcore, can't push the chip

    Very nice work indeed. Hey, I forgot to ask what PSU you're using?

    I have P5K Premium and Q6600 G0, too.
    I also have 2x1GB DDr2 1066 Crucial BallistiX Tracer (goes 1200mhz+ with stock 2.2V).
    I don't know why I cannot pass 460-470FSB for the CPU. There is a limitation in the CPU?
    The cpu goes 3800mhz and maybe more, as long as I don't pass 470FSB..
    Maybe there are some special settings to do in bios ?

    YES, quads tend to have FSB limitations, only a few can do over 500FSB, most stay between 460 to 490.

    Great tests!

    I'm considering buying one, but I want a fsb up to approx. 550. Can these boards - or your board - do that?
