well my BIOS has just been updated, but i have to get up early in the mornin, so I will start a thread after I install it after breakfast. We can see what this 650i can get out of it. Then, whenever I get a new board, we will see what it can really do.

and when I upped the voltage on my 650, it wouldnt last more than 10 minutes. any of the voltages over auto. We will see what it can do with the e8400, while I decide on where to get my new board.
