Put 1301 on my S2NSE. No change from S2NSE bios 805.
I've managed to stabilize my quad at 9x500FSB. Most of you are going to balk at these voltages. Yes I'm going to run this 24/7. All this happened because of the guys in the Q9650 thread telling me it couldn't be done on nVidia...
vCore: 1.5625 BIOS (1.42-1.5 Hwmon)
LLC: OFF
PLL: 1.5v BIOS (1.55-1.57 Hwmon)
vTT: 1.42 BIOS (1.46-1.48 Hwmon)
vNB: 1.80 BIOS (1.81-1.84 Hwmon)
vDDR: 1.9 BIOS (1.94-1.98 Hwmon)
vSB: 1.55 BIOS (No sensor in Hwmon?)
vGTL1: -51
vGTL2: -48
vGTL3: -48
vGTL4: -51

Cpu idles at 44C and loads at 87C, NB idles at 35C and loads at 78C.
Whole system is watercooled.

Some of the things I've noticed about the board:
1. 450Mhz FSB and lower is VERY EASY. My cpu/board did 9x450 on all auto settings.
2. beyond 450FSB, the voltage required for vCore, vTT, and vNB jumps exponentially.
3. increasing PLL doesn't do anything for me... Does it really help some people?
4. I haven't noticed any of the northbridge overheating issues everyone talks about here. I've run my northbridge with up to 1.88v(1.9v is where it turns red in bios) and had no problems.
5. Once the FSB is stabilized, clockspeed seems to be a nonissue. I worked out 500FSB at 4ghz, then just bumped my multiplier up to 9 and didn't have to change anything else.
6. forget about stabilizing anything over 500fsb with a C2Q on this board. Seems like the strap on this board beyond 500 fsb is meant for C2D's only.

Anyway, LinXing now. will post that in a few.
