ASUS Maximus II Formula - new P45 king?

[electricl]

your gtls need adjusting.
your chip might do 4.0GHz depending on volts/temps.

what FSB / multi and current gtls?

Here is my current setup.
No matter what I do it wont be stable at 500fsb. The settings below are stable.

Suggestions are in bold
lmk how it works out.
going to post a 4.0GHz setup shortly

It boots fine until the vista loading screen is suppossed to show up then it goes all black. Tried upping the volts a little but it didnt help.

Did you post setup for 4.0 GHz yet
