    I couldn't believe it...system hasn't been so stable as it is now! Feels much more responsive too!

    Does anyone know where the PLL chip is for the FSB? Also, would sinking the 2 Phase vregs for the ram help out at all?
    I was hoping for my NB temps to be lower than usual because I have 3 120mm fans on my sidepanel, but it's hard to reduce ambient temps when there are 5 HD's connected to my backplane

    Sir Kup, how's the modding of the new BIOS coming along? although I'm not sure what on earth is better to use these days, every BIOS has different problems and I'm pretty stable with my setup at the moment. Maybe I should just wait another few months for the next release...

    Someone on the ASUS VIP forum apparently posted up the changelog for the new BIOS, and it was the same as the last BIOS... so either ASUS are being vague/lazy or I would severley doubt the authenticity of the post.
