KRich - Yes, that is exactly what I mean. I think the boards are too sensitive to this, we should be able to set the vFSB (Vtt) and the vNB further apart without encountering the problem you described (which is exactly what I experience too), as it is limiting the boards performance. The maximum vFSB intel allows is 1.15v and my cpu can do everything I want it to at less than this voltage. I do not want to have to overvolt my cpu simply to be able to run the vNB higher.
I could run a larger vdiff on my P5Q-Deluxe, such as 1.1v vFSB and 1.34v vNB without issues, so I know that it can be done with an Asus platform with the P45 chipset, just not on the M2F. I want Asus to address this issue, along with allowing better ram overclocking above 1200 - 1300 MHz, and increasing the boards ability to run FSB 550+ stably.
