This one is a keeper! Doin 3.6 24/7 @1.36v.

Been on the darkside so long I need more time to see what it max's out at.

LOL...meh grin is so big it got in the way of my @3.6v. Clearly this is not so...cleaning it up to correct my mistake, sorry

Yeah…apparently there were some bad boards in the mix at release time. I asked Club-it if they would pull this one out of the box and test it to bios before they shipped me another one. Fired it up on the bench and BAM bios sweetness

Being fearful of killing the NB chip I used the hair dryer trick on low heat and the stock heat sink assy. almost fell off by itself. It appears that they are using something different for the thermal interface material on this board than on my 1st one.

At this point this thing rocks, it’s been solid as a rock, very easy to OC, has achieved and surpassed my expectations of 3.6 24/7
