C-N: you're more experienced than to just blame a chipset/bios issue on an unstable overclock; you know better than that

The Asus boards are experiencing the exact same issues btw.

I don't have anything useful to add. But I did mention several posts above that the problem has nothing to do with stability /overclocking at all...

Apparently asus just got a beta bios out to some people that fixed this over 20 cold boot tests...
