Hi, there are settings all over this forum. Check page 24 for 3.6ghz settings.

@ryanwhite123 you got it to run stable at 3.4 Ghz with 1504 bios? How long did you run Prime?

Wish I could try 1504, but I got CPU INIT when I reflashed to 1301. So going to have RMA it.

Does any know if Asus will allow me to RMA the board with out the heat pipes? I sort of hacked it up prior to water cooling (should of thought twice about it)

Hi pellepel, before i flashed to 1504 i couldnt get past the windows screen with anything other than 3.0, whereas now i can boot into windows at 3.4 and 3.6 with ease. I have been using other peoples settings from this forum as im not a great overclocker. Sadly though, my pc freezes up after 15 mins priming. The screen goes all wierd as if the graphics card is getting pulled out. I think this might be down to my stock heat pipes though, my N/S bridges are probably overheating. I think that im going to buy the coolers that nugzo recommended. Have a look at my settings and tell me what you think:

fsb 1700
Ram 850

cpu multi 8

vcore 1.625
memory voltage 2.2
1.2v ht 1.7
nb core 1.5
sb core 1.65
cpu vtt 1.55

Just to get into windows with an overclock higher than 3.0 is a huge leap forward for me.

As for RMA'ing your board though, the heatsink looks as though its designed to be removed by the end user, otherwise they wouldnt have made it so simple to take off so you should be fine. Thats my opinion anyway.
