    I can't recommend any Bios just yet. It seem the one from TechpowerUP is supose to fix the a few things but since this doesn't work for me and I get the same results than i had before flashing the bios, i really don't know.

    Its surely worth a shot to try though.

    6400+ @ def, mem @ def (1066mhz/5-5-5-15)

    flashed with bios from inq site.
    904mhz gpu is fine for 3dmark03 but gives me vpu recover in 05.
    the funny thing is that crysis timedemo gave me 11fps more compared to stock bios.. same clocks, it just is 11fps faster
    flashed in win, didint uninstall or reinstall drivers..

    2x PCI Express 2.0 @ x8 is 2x PCI Express 1.0 @ x16
    ^^
    remember PCI Express 2.0 = 2x speed of 1.0

    anyone else got a hot temp problem?, and vpu recovery kicking in and kills the fan to zero %
