I'd RMA your board if you still can, get a brand new one and mod it like I did. I still have faith in this board.

Either that or swap for an Maximus Formula - just stick with the X38 though.

Kinda wish I went with Max Form, but I'm not having issues here so I'll wait it out.
It is getting worse.
I cannot run 2 loops of 3dMarks01 with it set 333 x 9. I have set everything conservative and even put a fan blowing on the video card.
The graphics card temps are 72C load 66C idle I think that is within spec.

I don't know what the heck is up here, motherboard, video card or both.
I doubt it is the RAM.

I guess I could put my 8800 gtS in there and test again, think I would have to replace the drivers.
I was going to try 300 x 9 but there is no need at this point.

This stinks for sure.
