Again, so asside form the link, where is the actual BIOS v0802 from? It's just nice to kow where the link we're folling is from. So I take it these ROMs are not region dependent since everybody just follows the link and flashes and hopes for the best Thankx.

@Pete, "I've really no idea how the hell i got 500FSB, l;east i know my bord can and will do it i guess, but more so i wana know why it didn't do it with all 4's.". Look @ my post, you'll see that since BIOS v0401 (origional for me in US on 10-11-07) I had 500x8 in moments. So Yes, this bobo is easily and stable to 500x, he muli an dso is limited to your CPU, and a lot and since a lot of you guys are using quads, it's gonna' take a bit more to et hat kind of FSB out of them. A lil bit of GTL can help along w/ some more FSBT. Workde for me on P5K Deluxe. As for the RAM, try 1:1 w/ less timings as before. 500x is gonna' be DDR1000 so that should be just as good, if not better then loose DDR1200. Besides, this mobo doesnt do 1200 in alll 4 slots. 4 slots of DDR1000 should be good to go.

@ mXpS, That E6850 should be great on this mobo. You should see that 500x7 is a snap w/ low temps and vcore. Keep us posted.

@Kup, "I f however I set the strap and the ram MHz to Auto it's boots @ 1:1 anyway..." This exactly what I pointed out for v0701, 0602 was fine for certain variables.
