Put a E8500 in my board a few days ago but somehow i cannot get this thing working in the x38 like a q6600.
FSB will not boot higher than 518
Memory is absolutely not stable at almost every speed/divider ....

The board is acting like a 1st class ........ with the e8500 and is in need of a bios that fixes this ASAP !

boooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! no more testing for me... my psu just blew up :|

every over clock above stock wether it be 500*9 or 450 * 9.5 with 1.450000 on vtt, 1.5 on chipset, 1.45 on cpu caused the machine to just switch off after 1 second.

I have got the exact same problem with my board and the e8500 but it will only do this with the 11-1 bios it works fine with the 1st release bios (my favorit).
