I tried this chew* (@ 2600nb), and it didn't work, the machine shut down and never rebooted. I even took a shower waiting for it to come around, nothing short of a CMOS reset would get it to post again. (It appears my chip just won't do 2600nb at reasonable volts)...

I've been messing with this board most of the day and even though the monitoring software only shows IMC changes when it's done through software it does seem that the bios is making some kind of voltage change on the IMC (I can't imagine I'd get 2400nb @ 1.20v's)...

I managed to get the system to a point where I'm pretty happy with the Clocks/Voltages without having to use PhMSR Tweaker, which is a good thing.

The Bios "software hooks" are terrible to say the least. Along with the PCI-e problem, adjusting HTLink multi with AOD doesn't work either....
I'm not really sure whats going on without test points and a DMM but at least I got an unlocked 4th with clocks and V's I can live with.
To be quite honest I'm getting tired of with it for now...

Hopefully they won't give up on this board and the next bios will fix some of this squirleyness.
