I've got one as well paired with a 2500k and an 8GB Crucial kit. It's running with a 46 multiplier stable so far though I've left the voltage on whatever Asus' auto settings are and hope to play with it more over the weekend to get that dialed in.
So far the board has been great.

I recently got this board paired with an i3-530 and the A-Data 2x2GB DDR1333 kit but still need to figure out what video card to purchase. For now it's using onboard. It only supports LGA1156 CPUs up to 87W TDP which *excludes* the standard i5-750/8XX series quad cores. It'll be interesting to...
Scythe announced that a good number of their coolers already support socket1156 here.
I'm using the Ninja2 with a different fan. Other than having a hard time getting the push pins pressed down enough (same exact push pins as the Intel retail cooler) due to the size of the cooler it's been...
For the cooler I'm using the Scythe Ninja 2 with the Scythe S-Flex SFF21F (Sony fluid bearing things). The default fan that comes with the ninja2 is great for a non-overclocked system but it can't push enough air to effectively use the cooler. There may be better fans now but back in 2007 AT...
Ok so end of weekend update:
Turbo on
LLC disabled (per Intel's spec)
scythe sflex fan used now instead of default one, reattached heatsink in process (stupid push clips!)
Vtt 1.25V
Vcore 1.39375V (under load it drops to 1.296-1.312V with LLC off)
DRAM 1.58V, 8x multiplier, 1424Mhz
BCLK...
I too seem to have maxxed out my cooling and/or the CPU with the following settings:
load line calibration enabled
turbo on
183Mhz w/21x multiplier for 3.82Ghz
8x RAM multiplier, RAM at 1464Mhz
Vtt 1.27V (may be able to go lower)
Vcore 1.35625, under load 1.360
DRAM 1.58V
Cranking up...
My new setup is:
i5-750
Gigabyte P55-UD3R
A-Data cheap 4GB DDR3 13333
Scythe Ninja2
Right now I'm testing leaving turbo mode enabled as that seems like a good thing to leave on however I'm running into a few odd issues with it. It's currently running prime95 at 175Mhz BCLK at a 21x...
Scythe announced that many of their existing coolers support the lga1156 either out of the box or with a cheap pair of clips.
LGA1156 press release

That one does look tiny. I've been eyeing the Cirago bta-3210 which is also hardly larger than a USB connector. Newegg doesn't have it yet but geeks.com and xpcgear do.

This is a good deal. 5 year warranty and the bare drive is around $235 so you're saving a good amount. Funny thing is the internal drive was near this one on the shelf and was marked at $282 for the same capacity/warranty...

I do really like Monochrome...Replica from Solid State Society is quite good too. A piece from spotter has been enlisted as a cell phone ring tone in the past too. :)

I had upgraded my old 700m to a 60GB 7200 rpm ide drive without any issues. Just be gentle wiggling the adapter off the drive. I recall there maybe was one screw you needed to unscrew and then the drive sort of swung upward where you could more easily remove it from the connector.

Have you looked at and discarded devices like the Linksys NSLU2? It's not RAID, but it can take 2 usb2 drives (could be fanless 2.5" enclosures if you don't need a ton of disk space) and is probably fast enough for most home uses.
For a home built fully enclosed RAID system that's cheap, you...
I believe you are correct. All the exposure compensation seems to do is adjust the exposure time (or aperture) up or down depending on how you have it set. If I understand you correctly by setting the exposure compensation one way or the other will just shift your overall range in post...
