That should be sufficient for a daily user.

I really have the distinct feeling that there's a bios issue with IBT and sortlikes. I want to know is due to the elevated CPU frequency or due to elevated bclock, mix of both that IBT keeps on failing ? I can test with my 950 max at 4.3. She just get's too hot... might have to give the GT a run for it's money...

But anyway never mind some of my grrrrrauuwww posts, I can be grumpy sometimes... you have been warned :p

I did notice that this board does push harder than my other x58, in LinX at 4500mhz I get around 57-58 gflops max. On this board at 4500 gflops are 57 sometimes but 59 and very close to 60 in others. I wonder if that could cause it to possibly fail on the same voltage?

On another note I was able to squeeze the board very tightly into an antec900 case with a pair of 5870's and try my new loop with it. Will keep testing it, and see what it can do.
