Heres a little trick I picked up some P5Q Pro owners at least may find useful. While I was removing the NB/MOSFET cooling solution asus use I noticed 2 little indents on the black foam sticky pad thing put on the NB part of the NB/MOSFET cooler. Evidently it was pushing down on a few resistors, that must of been causing them to get rather hot. Since taking the black pad thing off, cleaning the sticky residue off and setting things back up, things seem to be running much nicer. Haven't fully tested things yet but so far 400FSB 1.1v is no problem, will be pushing further soon.
Hello Ket
I had My new P5Q Pro today. I removed also the Sticky Gray Pad under there and applied some Arctic Silver 5.
I hope i hadn't make a mistake by taking off the Gray Pad too ?
