[QUOTE=loc.o;2732485]For Maximus 2.0.b.16h PLL ICS9LPRS918BKL (919BKL fine as wel i thought).

Testing max FSB of me E8500. 32M time is horrible, slow mem, no tweaks and apps running. FSB not too bad though

Commando bios 1605
Tuniq Tower (room 20 C)
E8500 Q745A554
Ballistix 8500
8400GS
OCZ 520 mod


I got the exact same batch as you loc.o

BUT in running it in Maximus Extreme, and i must admit, this board really sucks.. I got a feeling the cpu can do alot more, it craps out on about 500 in this board, but it boots without a glitch at 550, god damnit..

what do you think, i got same batch as you, and my VID are as low as 1.0500
and 510 is a no go into windows, nomather what voltage on the important things... how was your experience with maximus?

regards.
