I mean, it is nice to see you can jack this board and run your QX9xxx CPU at over 5Ghz; but what about the people that don't have LN2 or a Phase Change setup and just want a lite overclock [compared to the results of the pros]?
Now, I'm not asking for someone to figure out the settings I need, all I want is for someone to point me in the right direction. I've tried the usual overclocking procedures, like raising the FSB 10Mhz at a time, but a mere 10Mhz raise stops this board from posting, even if I raise the voltage and dial in the required settings for the RAM. Even the crappy [my opinion] P5E3 Premium allowed me to be stable at 3.2Ghz without having to get to the point of throwing this whole system out the window and calling it the day.
