Did you try its OCability yet? What batch # is yours? I got a 3202B190 and OCing isn't that good...Can't even get it to run stable at 5Ghz using 1.544V (LLC Enabled and vcore set at 1.475v in the BIOS).

Batch# L209C207

Mine is a bad clocker. i've not tried it that much but it is 3d stable @ 1.3v @ 4.5Ghz but once core is failing in Prime95, i've tried 4.8Ghz @ 1.45v, but it wont even get into windows.

As for the OCability, i have not tried that much, i'll do that now but i need some help in form of input regarding mobo settings.

I've just got this Max V Gene Z77 because my old P67-UD7 is not 100% supported (locked multi) on IB, and i've not clocked much on Asus since the old MIIF 775 days, so there is a lot of new stuff to adjust here that is not present on a UD7 board. So to sum it up, all info and tips regarding OC'ing on Max V Gene is really appreciated, this will also help big time on LN2.

do you have a watt meter by any chance? how much less juice did IB need?

btw, thank you very much for good info. obviously this is an IB engineering sample-how did you get it w/o NDA?
