Done.

The spd button now works for me. The CPU-Z Timing Table doesn't match with yours but is either wrong?

I didn't notice this before but CPU-Tweaker 1.0 beta2 shows the Bus @ 195.6MHz along with some other changes.

BIOS Settings:
CPU Ratio Setting: 20
BCLK Frequency: 190
DRAM Frequency: DDR3-1573
DRAM Timings: All Auto



I then checked the stock setting and now CPU-Tweaker shows the Bus @ 137.6MHz.

BIOS Settings:
CPU Ratio Setting: 20
BCLK Frequency: 133
DRAM Frequency: DDR3-1066
DRAM Timings: All Auto



I looks like that CPU-Tweaker is adding 4-5MHz to the BCLK BIOS setting. Now am I the only one that is seeing this?

Okay here we go 4.0Ghz on air 1 hour prime stable took some real work but I think I got it now...



I am in a bit of a hurry but I will post my bios settings on an update to this post in a little bit but I am shocked that this board runs this well it's awesome on all levels...

I am running the Gigabyte with the 920 and Patriot 1600 cas9







Hope this helps I am calling this 100% stable but I gotta prime for hours to be sure....

Note: I had to bump my Vcore to 1.4 in the bios to run stable in the picture I was trying for some lower settings but they didn't take....

Hey, don't forget to update us after you've had time to really test the stability. I'd love to know if that OC holds water long term.

reading frequency is correct on some system and wrong on some others.
It's seem that I need to perform it, but I don't know why is wrong;

For the XMP profile (not show in the spd table) it's cause it's not enabled on the spd register. (B2=0x00)
