I've got this board now and i really dont like the voltage increments at all...the jump between them is too much.,.. seriously .300 to 400 wtf.

I was able to run less than 1.5v for 570fsb on my DFI...this one im there and struggle to even get 550fsb into windows....

DFI FTW, wish i could have gotten another one...
the Biostar is a budget board that is decent in overclock and performance...don't know why you can't get 550 stable...look at the first page of this thread where i posted my bios shots of an E8500 at 550 FSB (prime certified) and a 9650.

have you removed all the heatsinks on the Biostar to upgrade the TIM...the TIM on the PWM mosfet is pathetically inadequate...i replaced all the pins/springs with a bolts/nuts (better clamp down action)...see my link in my signature for the correct size....Abit's IP35 Pro had problems until i did the bolt and TIM mod on the heatpipe system for that board...after accomplishing it, i saw more stability in my overclock.
