I love my GD70. I got my 955 clocked at 3.8 at 1.42 volts with Vdrop at 1.4 and I'm 100% stable at that. I can boot into windows at 4.0-4.1 have not tried higher but have not got stable at 4.0 yet Great board so far. Lets start a thread for it see if anyone is getting 4.0 stable and there settings and all.
