    Good for core temps.(Tjunction), CPU (TCase) will be lower depending....
    My core's run about 10c hotter than the TCase temp. at full load.
    Normal as per Intel is a delta of 5c, that's if you calibrate your sensors.

    I had the bitspower freezer for nb/sb and mosfet coolers. My NB/SB temps are around 36-42C range depending on what I do and running Intel Burnin Test makes the CPU goes all the way to 70-80C too. It's a hot piece of chip!

    The advantage of a dual loop is that you can isolate your GPU cooling from the CPU. In comparison to a CPU they don't care much about temps. With automated temperature control your system can also run more silent. For instance at high CPU load it won't be necessary to ramp up the fans connected to the GPU loop and vice versa.

    Does anyone knows how to get R2E to boot from USB? I've copied Win7 install files onto the USB but just can't get the R2E to boot from it. I can manage to boot from USB on my notebook so something is wrong with the board. Please help?

    Excellent results Billy. Any 3D benches? Dice or LN2?

    1 Make usb bootable
    2 Copy all files
    3 Set usb as first hdd device in bios
    4 Set hdd as first boot device in bios
    5 Boot

    Thanks and I did that. I've selected USB as the first device to boot but my USB is the 3rd HDD device. If I were to make it first, would I still be able to install Win7? I'm just worried it will not take my SSD as the main/first bootable HDD after installtion.

    Make the USB the first device, boot from it, install W7 to desired drive, reboot after install complete, select OS drive as primary boot device, reboot.

    It doesn't work. I've entered the USB as the first boot device and first HDD device, changed the USB Emulation to "Auto", "HDD" or "CD-ROM" but no luck I'm on BIOS 1406 so perhaps some kinda bug?

    Ain't it required to have the same clocks on both to enable sli? 1 of the cards is underclocked according to gpu-z

    I think no - but maybe im wrong.

    My friends has two 280's, one is ftw version and second is stock - they work ok.

    I can flash card for new bios, but i dont think that this is a problem.

    well just bump it to default clocks ? Does both run the same bios ?

    Tried diffrent drivers ?

    press F8 during post , you will get the boot selection menu , if the usb drive is not at the list it won't work. Not realy bootable maybe.

    Have my 24/7 settings sorted out finally. Plenty of power but still runs relatively cool at this voltage.

    4.2 GHz @ 1.296v / 1.37 Vtt / DDR3-1600 / 7-7-7-20 1T / B2B = 4

    If you haven't solved it by now, perhaps try installing the driver manually through the device driver. Try installing it on the second card. Sometimes it also helps to completely remove one card and add it later.

    Anyone else noticed that tweak it is not setting the Vtt correctly?

    For example when you set 1.4250 Vtt with tweak it (while in windows) then check the voltage with HWINFO - it reports Vtt as 1.343v and I have confirmed this is real with DMM.

    I used to really like Tweak it on the Rampage Extreme X48 as it was actually set up properly. With the RIIE I prefer to use BIOS only for voltage settings.

    Also I wonder why Asus removed the PWM mosfet (POWER) temperature monitoring from the Rampage II Extreme when then had it with the Rampage Extreme X48?
