Helloo,

Finally weekend .

Can you guys report what kind of temps are you gettin on Power (load)?

In p95 in stress I am hitting 49 on 4ghz with no case so probably around 52 - 55 in closed case.

After 4 reseating of Cooling on mobo I got finally nice NB and SB temps (SB 38C 1.01v and NB 45C 1.31v - no case but also one fan only on CPU).

I tried 2 different types of washers and mixture of them.

Best results I got with same washers for all screws in my case 2mm silicon are doing much better job then 1mm steel.

Putting washers only for NB is not a good idea from my observations and worth mentioning my new MF2 had overheating issue on idle on both MB and SB - they were hitting 54 after few minutes in BIOS.

He was refering to the multi not PL level....

Anyway I'm about to sell all of my Asus hardware if they dont smarten up with RMA.

How do you like the Giga board?

I was very interested in the UD3P but didnt bother cause of i7
