    I have had two set of OCZ PC2-8000 Titanium Alpha VX2 modules to play with, and this board only kicks out a C1 error when they are installed....

    My G.Skill PC2-8000 HZ chips run OK...

    Tried single modules in each slot and presetting the timings/voltages using my G.Skills but nowt works...

    Anyones else had issues with the OCZ VX2 RAM and this board? Or is it just my dumb luck?

    Yeah there is something wrong with 9 or "final". the whole double boot crap will drive you crazy if you OC and I basically gave up trying to use the bios all together. back to 8.

    btw I haven't had a fan hooked up to the cpu fan plug since I bought the board and i've had no issues.

    lets see what i've seen wrong with this board is:
    1 unplug power cable it will 90% of the time reset OC
    2 Uguru for some stupid reason resets itself also.
    Why not have a Profile saving system It gets really old having to set up uguru over and over.
    3. uguru shows vcore higher then bios setting
    4. OC on the fly feature in bios Locks up even with a setup thats 10 hours + stable.
    5. IF you have a IDE cd drive hooked up, you have to hit a button or it sits for a few seconds during boot up.
    6. Whats the point of having all these deviders when ddr2 doesn't go to 2000mhz

    However I'm afraid of rebooting.. oO
    i got my 1st C1 errors with this board on flashing, My second came not long after on rebooting.

    You seem to need to treat the board a little rough & pull the battery out when it misbehaves. I'm not convinced that it's a bios issue, i think that the board seems to be liable to DMAi corruption, pulling the battery seems to be the most effective way to clear it & force DMA rebuild.

    Since using 12.09/official i've had a couple of occasions where I've had a 50h post code error , which is usb. I've had to pull usb pen drive. Now I've not had that up till now??? spooky.

    luck
