Working with 3200+ 90nm week 47and ASUS A8N-SLI Dlx. So far Prime stable and all 3Dmarks OK at 2.6 GHz @ 260x10, 1.55v, HTT 4x. (stock fan, AS5, Mushkin Basic Ram 2x 512 @217MHz, 2.5,3,3,7 and 2.75v). Temps 30C idle 43C max load.

Problem: setting CPU voltage to 1.5625 or lower gives 1.46v to cpu. 1.575 bumps it to 1.585. Newest BIOS. Tried resetting with clockgen, but no results (ASUS Probe and CPUID show no change, and the temps stay same, they always rise when overvolt any CPUs). Need a setting that gives me proper 1.52-1.55v. 1.585 takes CPU over 50C, and 1.46 doesn't run stress tests at 2.7GHz.

Is this a prob with this BIOS? Anybody work around this?
