Special thanks man! I just upgraded my bios version to the newest stable and got able to switch the VID thing into manual! So I got it running @2.640

So happy now! I won't leave this setting 24/7 though.. I'd better wait for the new HSF to come cause I'm on stock cooling now.. Does anyone know why the core temp app reports different value of core temps than the PC Probe?? Is the value of PC Probe the mean value of the two cores of core temps? And another thing I can't understand is, at CPU-Z under the tab Memory the DRAM Frequency reads 220MHz but under the tab of SPD for the first slot it reads 200Mhz. The 200Mhz is the nominal manufacturer value? And I have set a limit of 183Mhz for DRAM Freq in the BIOS, so how can it be 220Mhz??? There is no DRAM/FSB divider option in the BIOS so I figured out I should just limit the DRAM Freq to a specific freq instead, is that right?
