Bables - Thanks for posting your bios settings.
I'm not up for any physical mods. I'll take it to what the board can do out of the box and be happy. I'll save those hard mods for when the system is near end of life and is starting to feel sluggish.
From what I have read its about 290fsb on this board out of the box. 2.6ghz out of a quad core Q6600 would be plenty for me. Especially considering that I have upgraded from a old Dual Taulutin...I am truely in new territory.
I ran Prime95/Coretemp last night for two hours at 275 fsb and all is well. It leveled off at 55C. So there is a little more headroom in the stock intel fan/heatsink.
Definitely share your opinion on this mb, I bought it knowing it was a pebble...turns out it's a diamond in the rough! It's not cutting edge overclocker but if you have an AGP card your happy with, then this is the ticket. The audio chip isn't half bad either.
