ASUS Maximus II Formula - new P45 king?

[Grnfinger]

Grnfinger is there anyway my crossfire problems could be related to the autoed 8X8 Pcie lanes?? Will that affect performance that noticeably?? Also I updated to the new drivers and now I seem to be back to about the same performance as I am with one card.. It hurts to say that out loud... My GTX SLI murders CF performance not even close....

They say there is little to no noticable loss. I cannot confirm this for I only have a 3870X2. Altho it was a pain in the a$$ I moved my card from the top to bottom slot.
No difference in performance, 3DMark and Vantage scored about the same.
Everest shows it at 16x top or bottom.

I run 445 FSB 24/7 on the 266 strap and PL8 totally stable. Not sure if you can do that too but above 450 you have problems, but let me know if you want my settings.

I would be interested in that....I have been having issues with my rig all weekend. My once stable 4.0GHz is failing every test will pass linpak 10 loops one time then fail the next. run 3-4 hours prime no problems then the next run fail in 19 mins.
So I dialed back to my 12 hour prime stable 3.9GHz setting same freaking problem, not stable! Getting frustrated at this
