Epic board - so many happy users!!

I did a ton of research on the whole LLC issue (though not as much as Robilar ) and after some testing I've concluded that the power management on this board is totally up to the task. Shame about the E84 though Rob...

I've noticed no voltage spikes at idle with LLC on and vDroop is just ridonkulous with LCC disabled (~0.1v!! ).

Yea, grab chipset drivers first, that's what I did, Windows Update should pick up everything else. I flashed to the F7a BIOS right away too. If you're comfortable with flashing, I'd do that next.

I still haven't used the newer beta BIOSs but methinks F7a will serve just fine till there's an official release...

I bought this board because I was frustrated with my P5N-E board and it's RMA drama. While that's getting resolved, I am enjoying a very nice 4.0GHz OC after only a few hours of tinkering. The 4.0GHz even runs better from my initial observations than a 400FSB 3.8GHz OC. :sarcastic tear:

What's the vID on your q6600? I have a Q6600, and I haven't been able to get much over 3.4GHz, but it varies.

Funny you should say that. I cooked an E8400 on a Rampage Formula as a direct result of LLC.
