    Actually they were supposed to work with an auto detecting adjustable IMC, like the original spec had. Was suppose to auto detect and adjust the IMC clock to within 200mhz of the core speed to avoid the uneven divider problems that the K8's had, which would allow you to run your ram at full speed regardless of processor clock. It was also suppose to be able to clock down, and go into Idle mode like the cores do, with C&Q 2.0. Thats what the whole separate power planes thing was supposed to be for, all that does right now is make it easier to OC.

    And a side note, my system has proven to be gaming stable so far, on the auto detect voltage through the P0J bios, been messing about with Portal and Sims 2. Even played Half life 2 a bit, not gonna hit that too heavily though until the new 3870 comes in. At which point I'm gonna see if my system stays stable after putting the new card in, like it didn't do last time. Granted last time I could of just plane had a dud card.
