    I dunno, both my Pros done 500FSB, but the one I sent in for RMA a few days ago has always been the weaker board, and it finally started giving up. SO for me at least, I'd say 500FSB isn't hit and miss, but with early rev. P5Q series boards they had teething problems for sure.

    Yes, I think if I had a later revision it may do better. I have pondered going back to a DFI but that link width issue has been reported with other versions of their LP P45 boards and Nvidia cards as well, on the DFI Forums.
    Not to say I am unhappy with Asus, the P5Q's are very good boards, and it's nice to have socketed bios chips.
    As I mentioned I was going to do in a previous post, I swapped out my GSkill ram and put back the Team set, they are working well with the 1613M bios. Also fitted the Enzotech sink on the sb, along with all the other aftermarket heatsinks it's running nice and cool.
