The board has stock cooling for everything but the cpu, like I said I got it from Newegg and just placed it on a test bench. I have a bad Cryo-Z mount on the CPU. I'm waiting the waterblocks from Mips, otherwise there is no way I can tight the Cryo down on he CPU.

The MCH problem I noticed right of the batch but tried to OC anyway. My DFI needed 1.75vmch and 1.50 to run 485fsb.

Yeah it is crazy I love this board I don't have a clue for my stable settings yet but my 556x9 (5004Mhz) was pretty comfortable on 1.44-1.48vcore.

All that on a old OCZ PS 520w PSU.

So I think I can et more out of it and start aiming for a reasonable 24/7 setting.
