Could you do a side by side same CPU shootout between these two boards? I'm sure everyone in this forum wants to know which boards OCs the highest.

So far the CPU OC's the same but the P6T is sooo much more stable and no reboot/coldboot B.S. and memory bandwith isn't even close.. I'm priming right now and I will post some camparisons but the P6T runs much nicer, just perfectly..





But I just can't run the CPU at 4.0Ghz I can't believe it but it just won't run that speed!! I have no idea why or what to change to fix it. I have now been priming perfectly for 2 hours at 3.967 with a Bclk of 209 on the 19-multi at 1.35Vcore set in bios, memory at 1670 8-8-8-24 Dram bus volatge at 1.66V everything else on auto..

On that note I have a conspiracy theory and I wonder if anyone is on board...

I think intel has put some sort of ceiling on these 920's because why on earth can I run 3.967 at 1.35Vcore Prime Stable but 4.0 is impossible unless maybe I put 1.45 volts through it but there is something strange here I just don't get it.. Anyone else with a 920 want to jump on board with my conspiracy theory.. It's like they said hey if you buy the cheap one your gonna have to WC it to get it to 4.0...
