I wish GA would fix these boards. I RMAed my first one for bad RAM sockets. The second started to act up so I dropped it back to stock with a Windsor. I;m going to try a 9850BE and hope to get 2.8G from it. The main problem I see is the RAM timings get hosed and it takes some crazy maneuvers to get it back to normal. Reset CMOS, Set Defaults, (reset) Set Optimized (reset) then check RAM voltage and settings, drop in manual if you know them or run DDR2-800 stock.
