If that thread keeps getting bumped and rebumped, they might delete it. Let's all work with them, not against them OK? This would be a neat feature, but we won't get it if we're not polite.

Remember, they could just decide to say "You don't have an Extreme Edition CPU, and that's why you're having this issue." Eventhough I do have an Extreme Edition CPU, I'll get on there and help you guys. I'm trying to figure out why I cannot get to the forum. All I get with these links are page not found errors. I can't figure out what's causing it.
As far as I can understand, doesn't the smackover board support turning off the tdp limit? The point is, that this is not a feature to limit overclocks, but rather to just keep the chip within operating limits at stock speeds. Asus, for some reason, decided that it will apply this policy on users that aren't Intel's focus. This isn't like a major update, I would imagine memory compatibility is about 10x as complicated to fix as a simple multiplier switch triggered by a tdp ceiling. I'm only going to be patient for so long, if Asus doesn't even acknowledge this issue, then I will exchange this board for a dfi or evga one before my 30 day return limit on newegg...
