Got my board Saturday and it had the 11 bios. My temps were reading 8c higher than the board in my sig. Flashed to the 17 an hour before I read your post and the idle temps are back inline at around 36c (So. Calif). I'm running this board at 230x10 @1.775 vcore, max mem and chipset volts. mem timings 11-2-2-2.5. Testing my Nb , Sb cooling mods now. This 17 bios also verifies the Dual Channel in the startup screen that wasn't on the 11. Not having the 14 Bios that most seem to have ,I can't say which is better ?
Looking for the memory voltage mod, if anyone can point me to it. This Buffalo seems willing to go higher with relaxed timings and alittle more voltage! Yes, I did the L12 mod but the board would do 227 out of the box !
