ASUS Maximus II Formula - new P45 king?

[In-Fluence]

yep those are high volts but 4.2GHZ settings. just got it stable last night, in order to get 485 fsb i have to drop the multi to 8 settings are the same ecxept vcore is a bit lower thats it will post at 492 fsb but as soon as it hits above 40% load it crashes

Stable with 1.6v 4.2GHz and on watercooling? Or do you just mean bench stable? Let's see some screenies then!

I managed 4.08GHz which was just about stable enough for a 1M superpi run, and 4.05GHz for a 32M run, but didn't mess with it too much as I'm still trying to get a 24/7 stable config, but may try for more soon

Gone back to 1901 after having multiplier problems with 1802. Stabilising the system with the same settings used on other bios wasn't successful. Does anyone have to use majorly different settings for different bios (in particular GTLs, skews & voltages)?
