if so can they post their settings

I was stable with my SIIE for a while, but typically this board works fine for a while and then decides to go back to crashing and freezing

i am hoping to to get the blackops board, but want to make sure the E8500 will work fine first

thanks

Well, at least for now, 500 fsb seems like mission impossible on this board. I managed to boot using 8X500, though it was not benchable at all. Just a winrar test and then it crushed. I tried several combinations with the timings but no luck. I someone else can give us stable settings for 500 fsb I would appreciate it as well.

460 and 470 though, is pretty easy on this board but again it's pretty low for an E8500. This board was built only for unlocked multipliers and that is final... aka QX9XXX
