oh dont get me started on the IP35 series.

I HATE IT.

The board is absolute POS. Sorry if you own one.

But as you can see i did too, and it SUCKED hardcore compared to any other board i have touched.

Oh the ASUS P5QL-E comes very close tho, but its a lot more stable.

Never buying another Abit or Same OEM maker board anymore. :\
Gill MSI falls in that catigory too. :X

But my MSI treats me way better than your touted DFI did.

LOL it wasnt my DFI.

If it was, it would of done more then what you asked for. LOL.

Like my Q6600 was a straight up plug and 3.6ghz.

Also that E8500 i picked up for ya is treating you VERY well.

My IP35-E > any of Gill's new/old mobos. Sure it has a voltage problem with quads but this dual is a champ and my ram will run WAYYY past the 800 spec just ask him

Ah I'll give it a shot i think - Thanks Bryan. I've seen a few posts about people breaking their ip35-e with flashing and it makes me a bit wary as things are working at the moment

ps.
I've updated to the 16 bios now and vdroop looks the same!

I have 2x 35e, just flash using the windows util and set the chip to default speed before flashing though. I've done about 4 flashes with this method between the two boards, worked fine.

There are so many dead and rma'd boards due to the Windows Flash Util crashing, read the abit tech support forums. I've used EVERY Bios from 14 through 18 and EVERY beta, the droop is still there so NO it's not a bios problem, my friend currently has my old quad and his board is starting to do the same thing as well.

Sorry just to clarify, your friend is also using a ip35-e?

Yes, he got it from an open box deal on Newegg. Same revision everything.

Yeah, the IP35e sucks for quads. Dont use the windows flasher either, its buggy.

So what's a better board for Q6600? How's the GA-EP35-DS3L P35? I'm going to do some mild overclocking.
