Yeah, but I'm scared that by doing a bios flash I will simply break my bios as in: I will need to buy a new mobo to get my system running again
Edit: Oh and I only just read your comment about the 8-cores just now, Rgone. Good thing that this is a Quad-core then
Edit 2: I think I'm going to try updating to the P1.40 bios as apparently AsRock added support for my CPU in that BIOS update because at this point my CPU isn't exactly supported by my mobo, lol
Edit 3: So updated the bios to P1.40, the update was a succes, however, no APM... but since I already made the step of flashing anyway, I went ahead and tried the L1.46 beta version Rgone recommended. Once again, he was right!
So, I now have an overclocked CPU, my G19 was plugged in and enabled while booting and our cherry on top of the cream pie: APM disabled and no back throttling issues!
I'll probably run another blend test for half an hour since all my issues always came to light within 30 minutes of stress testing... Just to make sure the OC settings are still correct
So I'd like to thank both Rgone and trents for their help and utmost patience with me as all of my issues have been resolved.
I'd say, topic closed and let's hope it is of any help to someone else out there on the net.
One last thing I've learned: Always listen to Rgone as he is always right.
