Hmmm... what bios were you using before, and what was your max overclock at that time?

I only ask as I installed the beta bios several days ago when it first came out and achieved no increase in overclocks.

BTW... your memory benchmarks are very impressive!!!

Good to hear you gained, but what did the board go up to before the new beta?

LOL... no response yet, I'll bet two minutes after he made this post his computer burst into flames.

I didn't gain anything but I didn't lose anything either. Haha I guess I shouldn't be too greedy.

Wow! Nice shots Gwar!

Thanks for the info... and as for what you said, I'm sorry you misunderstood, I wasnt trying to attack or throw mud, just joking around, believe me, I understand we all have lives and that sometimes the last place you can be is online.

Anyhow, sorry bro... and thanks for information!

I don't know if it's from burning my ram in or something but I can now go 255 1:1 2.5/3/3/5 Turbo/Enhanced/A/A/A @2.8v with my ocz3700/2's.

I couldn't even post at 251 before........

Are you using the new BIOS as well?

I've personally tried every newer bios, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4beta, as well as bigtoes modified 1.3 and I achieve zero change in max overclocks.

1:1, 5:4, 3:2, any setting and voltage, I cant get any higher.

Yes flashed it this afternoon just for kicks.

Here ya go. Again I don't know if it was from burning the ram in, I spent about 16 hours 8x2 encoding video at 250 1:1 before this bios so it could have been that, that allowed it to go higher 1:1.

I found an interesting bug in this bios tonight, I need to try to reproduce it tomorrow.
