But then you can't run anything but a 1:1 divider, and have to settle for a looser PL.

    9x500 w/ 5:6 divider and PL=8 Stronger is a good goal to reach for.
    So, I've been running stability tests on my MIIF, Q9650, & DDR2 1000 - I was having trouble completing SuperPI and HyperPI but it was stable for 12hrs blend on Prime95 @ 480fsb ... I thought it was ok. I recently tried IBT & it failed. I reset my bios and all settings go default and it still fails IBT I am currently running HCI memtest to recheck ram. I was running 1.43v on the core to run the 480fsb (8.5multi) - could the CPU be failing or the mobo?

    EDIT: How about an E8600 for this board? I've decided to run my other quad with my UD3R board. What fsb could I expect with an E8600 in a 24/7 scenario? Also heard there is an E8700 coming out, any idea when or is it bs?
