sno.Icn !!! How goes it? I've been wondering what happened to you and the rest of the OC bunch from the GBT OOC event. Glad to see you're alive and kicking. Your results are pretty much on par with everything I've seen on air. It's tough finding that max-max on air if you don't know the threshold of your air cooler. One second it seems fine and the next, it's screaming towards 75C.

Chrono Detector - I've experienced something similar to that 3 second pause. Most the time its from a not-so-stable-OC, or I got too impatient before windows fully loaded. When I'm overclocking the CPU, I usually have Turbo disabled. Otherwise, I haven't seen that locked issue pop up yet on the P55A.

Euxinus - That Zalman 600W should be plenty of power for that system. Even though the board is beeping and restarting, making it sound like it's close to booting, it could just be the board. If I had your system in front of me, I'd still take the RAM down for testing. The only times I've experienced those beeps were due to the 12V aux 8-pin wasn't plugged in and/or bad connection - CPU wasn't being detected properly. You do have a Xeon plugged in there and I can't help but wonder if the BIOS can't see it.
