Hi,
I'm looking at building a X79 based workstation for heavy duty parallel processing (running open source computational fluid dynamics software like OpenFOAM). Linux is a must for this. I'd like to overclock a 3930K to around 4GHz, but the most important thing is stability as it'll be running full chat on all cores 24/7 for a few days at a time. I've read a few things about ASUS boards not having good linux support - was hoping you guys could give me some advice on OC'ing in linux and which is a good X79 for it?
Thanks.
