***Asus Rampage III Extreme Owners Thread***

No matter what I do, I get GPU driver crashes above 3.8ghz on my R3E.

I tested the same GPU's in a UD3R - no problems. Both my i7's do 4.5ghz at 1.35v on the UD3R. I can't get above 4.2GHz on EITHER chip on my R3E, and it needs 1.39v to do on the R3E. NB/SB temps never go above 60C full load.

A few boards that perform exceptionally well with exceptional chips doesn't make this board a good board. It needs to do well with most chips, which it can't, because of lack of QPI PLL control, and who knows what else.

Ok how many RE3. Do you have or have tested. ? Just the one or multiples?

All the pc components are variable.

90% good results is a good board to me.

I have a dud of a video card that 95% of the people who reported owning it get better results. It works exactly in spec but i try to push it its horriable.

I find it hard to believe 90% are having "good" results. If good results=4.2ghz maybe so, but this is not a 4.2ghz board, nor is it in the 4.2ghz price range, almost any X-58 now can get you 200-215bclk.

It is full of good features with an almost perfect layout, however I have seen quite a few that have issues, myself included.
