some more information, im also using a open case with a big fan ( those for humans u know xD those big ones ) pointed into the system. So I guess airflow isnt the issue.


Asus probe 2 says that my mobo temp is 28 degrees C. This temp doesnt rise when i start stress testing so I dont know if i need to trust that one.
Ok what I recomend is Dl'ing Everest. I personally love this monitoring program. It will tell you everything you need to know and more. Also it will label every temp probe.

:O It doesnt show the high temp 3. and it shows the same mobo temp of 30 degrees C. which is also shown in asus probe , this temp doesnt rise either.

btw cpu is running 3.4ghz on 1.34volt :S dunno how it works but it just did. Its gaming stable so far... will test it tomorrow. Temp3 in speedfans goes to 55 while gaming.

but im off to bed cya !.

Has any one taken advantage of the link I listed earlier. I think there is some very good info in that thread. You may or may not already know but it will solidify or better yet anwer most unanswered questions that you may have regarding overclocking Phenom II cpu's. I'll just copy and past the link this time.

Well I am sorry to say but I am going with an MSI 790FX-GD70 along with either a 955 or 965. If Asus had mad a MB with 4 PCI-E slots double slotted I would have pick that but they didn't.
I'm going to be shooting for 4 Ghz and will still be around here as I have had lots of fun with this MB, but It's starting to degrade to the point that I just cant take it anymore.

Cool :(

Hi guys.

After days of extensive testing and the fact I am now bald, I can safely say the AM3 Phenom II X4 955BE does NOT work properly with the M2N32-SLi.

That doesn't mean to say any others won't work, but I found it so unstable even when it did boot up...regardless of the BIOS version put on it.
I swapped between 2205, 2207 and 2208...whilst all recognised the CPU itself, not one of them behaved correctly even after multiple resets of the BIOS etc.
I got it last Thursday and never had a successfull streak

Even when forced to 1.375v, 16x multiplier and 200MHz FSB with C'n'Q disabled as well as C1E etc, the performance never exceeded that of an 803MHz Quad Core. (Windows did report it as running at 3.21GHz though which).

I love my M2N32-SLi Deluxe, but at 4 years old, I was hoping a bit too much to expect a 2009 Phenom II X4 955 to work correctly on it.

The M2N32-SLi has now got a new lease of life in my brother's PC...replacing an S939 Athlon64 X2 4800+

The king is dead...Long live the king!

OK i filled in my specs, and no it isnt my GPU. But can i put my videocard into the second PCI-ex slot? so my northbridge gets better airflow?

and today i will check if 3.4ghz is stable on 1.34volts ( it was yesterday for 45min crysis gaming :P ) But i dont think its stable cos it seems a bit high

Mmh today i did some testing which part of the mobo heatsink felt hot. I can tell you that the nortbridge? ( next to CPU ) is easy to touch and not hot i think thats a good thing. The hottest part was the part with the ASUS name on it ( Southbridge?) temp 3 said it was 60 degrees C and I felt some " pain " on my finger so i think thats the badboy. Is this normal for a southbridge? if not, how do i fix it.
