Glad you could join the club. I'll have your name here. This thread is use to discuss about anything with this specific type of motherboard. Also this could help you get your problems resolve quicker when people actually have this board. As you see, this is a members/owners, so you can trust that they're probably going through the same experience as you. I'll have your name on the list. Do encourage other people will similar board like ours to join the club. Thanks!

@Caic Addict & Hygge- Thank you so much for joining! As you guys can see, we can all share ideas, tips, and help out on this board because we all share the same board. Some welcome along, and feel free to pass this for any users of the K9N2 Platinum boards! I will add you guys on the list!

@Hygge- What bios version are you using? Is it the latest? Also what cpu are you using with the motherboard? If you go under "Cell Menu" and look down at "NB Voltage (V)", that's the NB voltage to adjust. Use the "+" or "-" to adjust them accordingly. I added an image below to help you see easier. Hope that helps!

Nice specs, but you might want to put it in your sig rather than typing it in all the time. Go to "User CP" and click "Edit System". Fill your specs there and from then on, every time you post, you won't have to type all that information. Your sig specs will show below your post. It will be much more convenient for you.

@raisethe3
Have a look at my post, ones more!
Lastest bios in use.
With the phenom 955be on the k9n2, you have the mct-voltage option, which is the NB-volt in the cpu...If I set this setting to auto, then there's no way to run my nb at 2480-2500Mhz!
The lack of option I was refering to is the cpu-nb multi.
Nb-voltage option in the bios aren't helping when overclocking the cpu-nb.
Remember to hit the F4 key in the cell menu, and set "power user mode" from limit to auto.
