Foxconn Quantum Force Black Ops X48 OC Guide (56k Warning)

[ceevee]

I think the main issue is you guys are trying to overclock with 4 sticks of ram. Its known to hurtyour ram ocing no matter what board or chipset your running. The 1:4 266 and 1:4 333 are the best dividers for the board.

Actually I am just trying to get 8GB (4x2GB) to run anywhere near its rated settings. I am not trying to overclock.

What I don't understand is why cheapo crappy 2GB (2x1GB $90) sticks will run at 1333Mhz, but some of the best Corsair 8GB (4x2GB $1400) sticks will not run at 1333Mhz even though they are rated at 1600Mhz 7-7-7-18 and they are Intel XMB SPD certified for those settings?

I am not trying to overclock, I would be thrilled at this point to get this board to run even anywhere close to the stock settings for this RAM.

When are we going to see some new BIOS releases and stability fixes? Are they going to adress the fact that high performance 2GB DDR3 sticks (4x2GB) will barely run on this board?

Seems like this is a great board if you want to put in 2GB of RAM (total) and run SuperPI. However if you want to do 4GB-8GB and actually use it for Vista 64/gaming/workstation its not very good at all.

Hopefully they will support this product with a vastly improved BIOS to address some of these issues.

I am concerned though about the comments that people are leaving that suggest Foxconn has a reputation for basically hyping a product and then ditching its customers. Is this true? Or are these guys going to actually support this and improve it??
