    Have you tried booting with low FSB and change performance level before clocking higher in windows? Its set rather tight at auto and 4/5.

    but afaik iirc the maximus has never had a bios update, whereas X38-dq6 has had had quite a few. it could probably beat the P35-boards with a few updates.
