I have been running @ 425 x 9 3.82Ghz stable in Prime95 but still getting game freezes. I've been spending hours adjusting Bios settings trying to clear up freezing issues and 3Dmark. I decided to disable CPU Thermal throttling. Now, no matter what I do, the FSB reported by CPUID will not go over 333Mhz. Have it set to 420Mhz in Bios. Tried re-enabling CPU thermal throttling, that did nothing! I have all the other stuff off, C1E, speedstep etc. disabled. Currently have latest F8f bios. I tried loading Optimized settings, tried hard and soft Bios reset, restarted and put everything back, no dice there either.
As far as voltages go, +.2 on FSB and NB, +.3 for rated Ram spd, 1.4V Vcore for 1.36 actual.
What the heck is going on here? I'm honestly about to ditch this motherboard as I'm starting to think it's faulty.
