what are going to change settings about Skew like clock amplitude etc etc, witch of them leads to better results ? thank you as always

Great oc to, very low vcore .

That settings are not equal for the same plataforms, it's a " try and restart " issue xD.

Hello nice review.

I have a question. I`m doubting between this board and the Gigabyte UD6. What would you say?

Rest of system is going to be:

OCZ platinum ddr3-1600 4gb CL7 kit
i7 860

Hi unkki

I think I would be the wrong person to ask as to which board you should go for as I could be biased towards the ASUS brand very much like someone whom done a Gigabyte review would be.

All I can say is that I think this review speaks for itself in terms of performance and features that this board has to offer a user, I would also say this is one of the best looking boards in the P55 range to with a lot of bling factor to go with the outstanding performance it offers.

At the end of the day the decision will be down to yourself, but you have to ask yourself what it is that you are looking for in a motherboard and I think you will agree with me the MF3 offers everything you could ever want and more.

As for the parts you have listed they will go well with this board.

Hi sacha

any comments on this, has anyone tested this to see if games have better ping times

GameFirst
The speed you need to pwn
Low Internet latency allows you to frag more, and get fragged less. That´s why ROG has introduced GameFirst, a feature that manages the flow of traffic according to your needs so that you can still listen to online music, download and upload files, and engage in Internet chats without sacrificing the low ping times you need to pwn your opponents.
