I just upped the HT voltage to 1.5v, so 268 works fine now. Nothing higher is bootable, probably just limitation of the bios cause I'm still using 904 which was the first to support phenoms on the board. Currently running 268x11@1.325v because this board has some vdroop issues and it doesn't like high voltage to get the 1.3v at load that it needs to run 3+ghz. Not sure if that's a board issue or a psu issue, I have the pc power and cooling 510 watt, but I could move the 1kw one over to check.

2 more days till I get my 9850 BE...
