NP I have links close to the top of the OP of this club thread under the ASUS section for bios and FAQ on the M2N SLI, M2N SLI Deluxe & M2N32 SLI Deluxe Wifi. It makes it very easy to look up info at the click of a button.

Very cool... thank you guys! Now I just have to figure out why I have no option of anything higher than 1.3v.

That is what I had. I left the timings at 5-5-5-15 and the voltage at 1.8v.

I didn't feel they needed a bump in voltage even though they tended to lag sometimes. So a minor bump might've helped. And besides the metal heatspreaders they have on them I've only got my 120mm in the front grill blowing air towards them and the Xiggy. So air does move around.

The non-deluxe version was limited and does not have most of the advanced BIOS settings or higher voltage choices. I built my friend's pc with that board as well and noticed the differences of it and mine.

EDIT: Well guys my RMA was accepted and I sent the RAM out yesterday. I feel so lost with only 1gb it is rediculous.

But hey I don't have any more double booting which is a god send. Amazing that ram module was the cause for all of that.

is there any sort of workaround with this... custom bios maybe? or is it a hardware problem?

I did some digging, but I didn't turn up any custom bios for the sli... only the Deluxe. Maybe I'll just be buying a new motherboard first, ehh?

N2Gaming

As a matter of fact there is a few things you can look into. One being a bios mod. Look on the OP of this club thread for a bios mods link. Then you always have the volt mod option but don't ask me how cause I would not know where to begin. Lastly I think you may be able to use software to overvolt your cpu. I can check around for that and get back to you.

Systool is the only thing I could find so far and I don't think it has Voltage adjustments. In all honesty I think your gonna be hardware limited voltage wise so you may only have a voltmod or bios option.

Yeah, the bios mod in the OP is what I was referring to. The only one listed is for an M2N-SLI Deluxe. Nothing for my mobo.

I dont think a software workaround is going to do it since I can't even get it to boot into windows if I go any higher. There is no "instability" in between. It goes from being rock solid at 234 (ran for 48 hours at full load) to not booting at 235. I can go up to 250 before it stops posting though.

N2Gaming

What is your ram overclocked to at 234? Have you tried to lower your ram divider to the a slower divider? Have you tried to loosen you ram timings when pushing to that level of overclock. Additionally You may want to check you temps during a full load stress test to make sure it's not temp related. Anther thing is to make sure your power supply is adequate for all your hardware and that you don't have any power spikes or dips while overclocking. More volts will mostlikely get your cpu to boot into windows but make sure you exhause all your options before you throw in the towel.

Edit: Do you have a chipset and HT link voltage option in the bios? If so have you tried to bump those up a notch or two?
