IN9 32X-Max and the Q9550 - Overclocking Help

Wow, I wouldn't have thought a 45nm Yorkie would run in this at all. I still had one of those mobos lying around, threw it in the trash a few months ago, after years of miserable performance and unreliability. 680i sucked, period. Not even Abit could change that.

I must be one of the lucky ones then. The best part is that I got this MB from Newegg right before they were going to stop carrying it. I think I paid something like $119 after $100 mail-in rebate. Actually got the rebate too!

Once I found memory that would work it was quite stable, only had an occasional lockup/BSOD. I've almost got the Arctic5 broken in so I'll start running some extensive testing to see just how table this will be. My gaming experience has improved and games are working flawlessly so I think this is a good sign of stability. We'll see.
