I've done some more testing only to be more confused as the problems with my X-Fi and floppy have gone away, I've temporarily removed part of my post.
And sorry to hear about the problems some members are facing, also about the sub-par support.
I've tried to replicate some of the problems that have been reported.
1)I could boot into windows at 48x with my HD6950 (rechecked, but didnt look for a LinX/AVX stable voltage setting). iirc KILLER_K reported had he used automatic overclocking it could go to 4.8GHz, dont know what to say about this.
4)overclocking @ 4.5GHz with LinX/AVX and furmark wasnt a problem. With LinX using up most of the CPU time furmark was running slow. VCore reading in HWiNFO was 1.280-1.296, LLC is level 3.

Support; at least from the USA team; does seem disappointing which is sad since ASRock makes some fine mobos and as LoneWolf stated it wouldnt be good for their business (though that kind of support is not uncommon from the distributors in my country; part of the problem being it hard for us to explain troubles precisely in english while there are few japanese speaking engineers that we can get in touch directly. I've recieved the same kind of non-helpful support from a well known sound card company but they have a bad rep so...)
It would helpful if we could get in touch with an ASRock engineer or an employee who could get directly in touch with their engineers, maybe Ket could help us out?
