Maximus Extreme - Results/Info/Bios

[GLENBOY]

if you check on pc probe the ram seems to get overvolted so 1.9volt set in bios shows 1.97volt in pc probe , i would change the paste as on my motherboard it was like this, half on half off and on the s/bridge and crosslinks itr had those crappy thermal pads if you were going to put replacement paste on the mofsets use artic ceramic instead of artic silver 5 as its a non conductor, i am using the watercooled fusion block as well , seems a good motherboard to me always resumed from over ambitios overclocks, mines still a bit flakey yet still playing about with settings, theres so many

I've had mine for a few days. Early observations:

According to PC Probe, FSB Termination voltage seems to overvolt -- watch out for that one.

403 has been the best overclocking bios for me so far.

450 fsb with 1:2 ratio runs great off the 266 strap, nice low latencies.

My first time taking a quad core (q6600) to 500 fsb.
