Did you try upping vFSB like i suggested. My board will do this if vFSB is too low. Sounds like your not far off stable.

Hope you guys get it fixed...
Still much love from me for this board. You just gotta be real methological when setting it up. New bios' can also bring instabilities as they need different settings\voltages to other bios'. Agreed though, there could be some bad boards around. I hope these last few pages dont put people off getting this board because for me it is running sweet.
