    Guys, have it, here you go: Benchmarks: If anyone wants any other benchmarks, let me know. (If I don't reply, shoot me an Email at miggtt699@gmail.com) System specs: Intel Xeon E5-2670 OC 2.7Ghz (3.5Ghz Turbo) 8C/16T (BCLK 106 // Stock voltage) Raijintek Triton 240mm in PUSH Asus P9X79...

    Thanks! I'm picking it up. I hope I don't get scammed because I'll be paying for the package before opening it and that's kinda sketchy but... For 90€ is not too bad, Cheapest board I can find on ebay is going for 150 and it's a P6T SE.

    Yes this one does have those too, the Sata 6 and USB 3. It's a shame my Sabertooth is busted, that is a really good board ._. If it's the CPU that isn't accepting voltage changes I'm going to be very upset, I must say. Oh and that's fine, I don't use AMD GPUs if that's the problem with them.

    Hey guys, sorry to be a bother, I spotted this EVGA X58 SLI3 motherboard for 90€ total (including shipping) in my country, should I go for it? Currently running Bios 1204 and still nothing, still continues to ignore voltage changes.

    I will probably be jumping to 1302 version of the bios, I have the 1402 version.

    Yes, after 3.3Ghz I get BSOD.

    How would I do that? Remove the battery and stuff? I've tried that but I'll give it another try today, leave it unplugged without the battery for like 15 minutes or so and see if that helps.

    I don't think so. The voltage actually increases when it's under load to 1.16-1.18V.. If I disable the turbo boost and everything, it never goes above or under 1.096V.

    Well even so, wouldn't the motherboard not care about the power supply? Like I understand that the power supply may not be enough, but wouldn't it accept the voltage changes regardless? As far as I know, there aren't motherboards who refuse to overclock because of a power supply not being...

    Okay, update, tried doing that, nothing, max it hits is 1.2V (set it to 1.35) and with turbo, tried disabling everything on the bios, literally went mad, max it hits now is 1.096V. Going back to my 3.1Ghz Config.

    I will be trying that out just now. None of them work, I am thinking of getting another processor to make things clear yes, but I'm yet seeing if I can get away without having to spend money. I am inputting the voltage with the numpad, not the +/- signs, tried both, none work. Here's...

    1366 x58 Xeon Enthusiast overclocks club

    Aw man, really? The only really "good looking" (for my build) X58 board I found x.x I will try and do that, but how can I check if they stay? Is there a monitoring tool for those voltages? The thing is that, it's not even failing to boot after voltage changes, so it doesn't reset itself, it...

    Okay, sorry for bumping this thread, but I've got a big issue at hands and it's getting really annoying... I have a X5650 running on a X58 Sabertooth Asus motherboard, and whatever I do, it just refuses to do any voltage changes, I don't know what else to do. I've disabled C-Stepping...
