Iam one of 3 (now 2) people on the forum that have achieved this. Its really rare to happen and is mostly luck as opposed to bios settings. But ill give you my bios stuff so you can try.
Vcore 1.3v +100mv
Nb 1.39 (or 1.56 mine runs better at 1.39 for some reason)
FSB unlinked
CPU 1333
RAM 800mhz
4-4-4-12 2T 2.25v
Im at school now but maybe I cant get some bios pics for you later

LOL you guys take off on the Intel MB and hope you do well with them. But, this is a thread for people who want a challenge (aka: don't have any money to spend on a new board
). So lets take it form there.

They aren't bad, just not good for quads. Besides I think f you dig deep enough you can find problems with any board.

well if it can't really OC that well and only up to 3ghz that's a wasted effort on my end.i'm just gonna return the board and find a better OC'able mobo.

oh does this cover the p5n32-e sli model as well right? i have the 680i chipset in mines is this the board that we're talking about?

Yup and no better for a Quad I'm afraid. Only good 680i for quads is the EVGA 680i rev A1. Dunno about 7x0i boards yet.

too bad. Why don't u trade the quad in for an e8400. The board runs nicely with that.

OVERCLOCKING QUADS ON the p5n-e is HORRIBLE!

Only like 3 or 2 people here have gotten it to 3.0ghz.
When i try too oc my q6600 on it i cant even get past 2.66ghz.
Im gunna spend a couple hundred dollers soon on a new mobo, good that you are too.

Good luck though, and may god be with you :/
