I'm in the process of building an new system which will include the following

Core i7 920
ASUS P6T Deluxe v2
6 GB Corsair Dominator DDR3/1600
ThermalRight Ultra Extreme 120
640 WD Caviar Black
500 Seagate Baracuda
Evga 8800 GT SC - will replace within the next month
LG GBW-H20L Blu-ray drive
Corsair HX 1000 Watt PSU
Vista 64 Home Premium
Coolermaster ATCS 840

I know bios 0302 just got released last week and I just wanted to see what it fixed and/or improved over the initial release bios.

I am due to receive my power supply Wednesday so I can begin this new build.

Batch # 3841A525

My P6Tv2 didn't work out of the gate with ver 0102...I used the Qflash and brought it up to ver 0302...then everything worked within the bios.

Mine was defective...the cpu clamp was taller then the actual chip...which meant I couldn't get a good thermal connection with anything other then the stock fan. I'm still waiting on the replacement...might even put it on the boards for sale...

Hope your replacement MOBO works out for ya. I should have some feed back by Friday when everything is up and running.

It did and she does...been running Seti on all 4 cores and crunching two more under CUDA at 3.8Ghz...on air to boot! Just doing the fine tweaks on the system before she goes under water.
