highly isolated issue... sure...
50% of the people that voted here have corruption issues, and this isnt about xtreme fsb and memory ocing... we are talking about 400 and 450fsb and 1600 and 1800 mem speeds here...

Broly, it IS possible to get 500fsb+ and 2000mem speed+ stable on 790, it just doesnt work on all boards and seems to be very tricky to tweak, while on x48 its easier. after all nvidia advertises the 790 as THE enthusiast chipset which can reach higher fsb and mem speeds than other chipsets... but all the sudden it turns out most of the chipsets actually oc worse than intel chipsets, and even the best ones nvidia can churn out are at best, as good as intel x48 chipsets or maybe slightly better, depending on the clock speeds your running.

and now nvidia is saying its an isolated issue with extreme overclocking?
doesnt nvidia say 790 officially supports ddr3 2000?
that was the main selling/marketing point from what i remember...
so now officially the max is 1333fsb with 1333 mem and 1600fsb with 1600 mem is already extreme overclocking?
