So I tried to OC over 3.6 and no luck with it today I just played with it and after all I got the two - - magic dashes So I'll send this board back again tomorrow but I'm not going to deal any more with it, that's it I don't want it any more f..k it I'm watching out for some new board now, but I don't like Asus bc of the bad support.
    I don't know what to get any more, so if any sugestions no need for SLI.
    Good Luck guy's


    "two - - magic dashes" welcome to my hell that i went through, 3 out of four boards that i had died that way man, i finally spent 50 more bucks and got me a striker from mwave.com, they have the cheapest price on the striker. and i am glad again that nugzo brought this thread forward, otherwise i would be switching out evga boards. if you dont want evga and no sli than go with the p35 chipset, either abit or asus or gigabyte, honestly great service is good but great service doesnt do any good if i am gonna be changing out 4 board in six months. striker now is probably the best board for 680i chipset with reliability. doesnt act funny like evga boards did to me, it would lower the multiplier even though i had every cpu feature disabled in the bios. i would stay away from reference 680i design.i havent had asus rma experience because i honestly have never returned a board to asus, and i wasnt getting the striker because i thought they didnt overclock too well with the quad cores. i highly recomment the abit ip-35 pro. great board, for a single card setup, i was able to get 3.6 highest stable with that board and with the stiker i have hit 3.82GHZ prime stable but i have lowered it to 3712 for my 24/7 setup with c1e enabled in bios, because i dont need that much power while i am idling. under load it shoots up to 3712
