Has Intel fixed the Sandy Bridge S3 sleep bug ?

But with a LOT of P67 boards it makes no difference what PLL is set to they still don't resume from sleep. The Z68 on the other hand works in nearly all cases with default settings (PLL on), but not sure about if overclocking above 4.2Ghz
 
You would be suprised at how often installing the latest RST driver and the latest Intel OROM will fix that issue. Also the latest Intel Management Engine IF your motherboard requires it.
 
^ this, Waking requires a lot of stuff to reinitialize. Unstable drivers can cause all kinds of weird behavior.

A lot of the wake issues ive seen have to do with wacky usb devices and HD firmware issue .

it wasnt a whole lot better on prior platforms.

it took me close to a year to get a socket 775 and vista stable on wake.

You do not need to enable PLL overvoltage to get to 4.2GHz or beyond. About 4.4GHz to 4.5GHz is about the level you'll need to start making more voltage adjustments.
