    Not even a tref change for improved bandwidth seems Asus are dragging there heels on this board's support.
    I bet they're doin a lot of work on the x58's. Such an anticipated and new chipset right around the corner. Or maybe they are so busy with the 5000 P5Q Models.

    If Asus doesn't start taking care of the people buying their high end boards "ROG" will change to "ROC" (Republic of Crap).

    Oh wait, I did get a flashy little ROG light.

    Thanks for the info!

    Did you mentioned any SB temp drop (aprox. 9-10C) after putting the block to the northy?

    So there is a problem with my NB temps..(vnb=1.29)..

    I will re-check my block/heatpipes contact..and i will mod my block..because it has a lite (inside) surface.

    I can't lough about that anymore. The board, for its price tag.. is simply just crap at all. DFI boards do better FSBs, cost less and also have a better soundcard. it is frustrating to see that asus doesn't take care about their RoG line...
