I have MIIIF which is quite similar- my sample can do bclk 265- so far tested only one chip- my new 661 and 670 should be here next week

hope for nice pts boost in wp category for dual cores

about cbb and cb there is simple mod:

I didn't test mine before mod

but after mod I din't have cbb- only cb @ ~150C, but I have tested only one chip

Nice I am really thinking on giving the M3E a go.
So that mod is the Ln2 jumper on the Extreme? Or do I have to do a similar mod on the M3E to be CBB&CB free?

Thanks I wonder what's this Ln2 jumper for then:B

"TW do you see that jumper just above the "Go Button" ? That's in fact a cold bug switch. Die-hard overclockers cool down to way below sub-zero with liquid nitrogen. Typically when an Intel processor hits -90 Degrees C, you can't boot anymore. This is what is called the "Cold bug" in enthusiast terminology. Well, switch the jumper and that issues becomes a non-issue. Very nice. We'll discuss the several micro buttons separately by the way."

All I know about the Maximus Extreme is they were way too late to market. Now there aren't enough results on the bot to make an informed decision about spending that much money on the P55 platform. If they could have only lauched that board like 2-3 months earlier.....
