ASUS Maximus II Formula - new P45 king?

[Leeghoofd]

I can second that on the 0901. I tried 0901 initially and had stability issues w/ anything above stock but I've had nothing but happiness w/ 0701. The only problem that I am having with the 0701 version is that I can't lower my multiplier in order to run 8x450. Everytime I try it resets to 9x450.

How do you like the MFII over the P5Q dlx mate ? Is it worth the step up ?

By far not You can talk about stable by passing 100 runs (I am always going with 300 runs over night).

Worst tip you could ever give to users here... totally hardware kill and way over the top... but if you want to go and waste ya hardware and cycles on a stability test, be my guest...

not planning on keeping your hardware very long? There is no reason to run 300 loop test let alone 100 loops
run 10 loops if it passes then toss it on prime or OCCT for 6-8 hours and its done. And the plus side you wont kill your hardware

And then you get the suggestion of a wise man : 10 loops is more than enough, add some other tests and you are ready... users are really exagerating with all of this...

Not a Huge OC, but I think it's Stable!
Ran Linpack Test#2 on Vista 32bit for 100 Passes with no errors.

I would love to get this Chip to 3.8 or hopefully 4GHz but everything I have tried has been unsuccesful.

Stop doing that lol... why do I see 6gb of ram... do you run 2 x 2 Gb and 2 x 1gb sticks ? Have you tried dropping multi to eg 7 with 475FSB ?
