Ah, in the inevitable car analogy... ok, do they have the ability to disable the governor
I know you are running classys so probably have no clue LOL
For us peons... its this annoying feature that drops your multi if your going too fast only enabled on some boards, even though it is a Intel specification and is supposed to be part of ALL x58 motherboards.

Dunno which ones you are running personally (x58 or NF200) which was why I asked if it had it.
Dropped some bids on ebay. Even thought about trying to repair some damaged sockets, if I was still working at twotech I would definitely take the chance of being able to repair one. I do not have the gear here to do it. Plus I would have to give up coffee for a week, which I do not want to do either.
