    460FSB my MAX FSB on this bord, this has to be RAM related. 8 bords all maxed at 450/465FSB.

    I can run memtest @ DDR1200 4-4-4-8 fine.

    I've new ram on the way anyway

    I`m having a few probs getting my E6600 stable at 3.4GHz,was rock solid on my previous board but fails orthos / occt within a min or two.

    The board wont even boot if i have it set at 8 x 425,anyone got any basic settings that theyve tweaked that they would like to share?

    One last thing ive got my memory set to 2.0v in the bios but AI Suit has it at 2.3v and PC Probe at 2.1v?

    the real phase power must be measured from this point with Professional multimeter...

    only one to ground

    635MHz PL8 with Intel X48 is possible...only with Foxconn Blackops...

    That's a pretty bad vdrop. I've seen it on many asus m/b's in the past, but i was hoping that maximus wouldn't fall in the same category...

    I think that voltage damper affects undervolting and not vdrop. Or am i wrong?

    Has anyone experimented with water cooling on the chip set yet? Did it improve your clocks? My board will be in next week and I have a Corsair Nautilus 500 laying around that I could use for a second loop. Just wondering if it's worth the effort? TIA.

    Did an Fsb check

    bios 0401
    nb 1.81
    nb gtl x63
    sb1.5 1.90v
    cpu temp -115



    validation

    The cpu did a 556 air, and becouse the fsb is cpu related the board problaby will go much higher.
    stock board, no watercooling yet.
