ASUS Maximus II Formula - new P45 king?

[CryptiK]

Same thing I am thinking. Thank you all who offered help, I'm really appreciative. I already made the RMA request and am shipping it back Monday. Fortunately, a friend has a mobo I can use in the meantime to stay up and running. Thanks again, and I'll let you guys know the result of the replacement board installation and whether it solves my problems. I kind of suspect the PWM chip on my particular board was defective.

Well whatever the issue was, hope your new one goes well and doesn't take to long to get to you.

24/7 4 GHz stable settings
I'm stuck on 1:1 Ram at the moment but that wont be too much longer before I get the right combination

I think your vFSB, vNB & vPLL are a bit too high, but that's a good start. Just work on the ram now I guess.
