You have a bios from june as well:

Hmm, come to think of it, I had to switch backwards to the june bios, or i couldnt get it to boot above 49x on 4 cores, reguardless of what I set it to, I could set 60x and it would still boot at 49x.
3 or less and it would boot up to 53x like normal just fine. It had me thinking a core had degraded on my cpu.
Switched backwards to the june bios and all has been well.

I have come to the conclusion that all Z68 & some if not all p67 MSI boards have a Load limit issue.I have been through all 7 bios's for the GD80 (G3) version with the same result. Using core temp RC2 wattage monitor the board throttles the clock at any load over 100W no matter the settings.
I would guess a bios will not fix this and only a PCB revision will beable to address this problem.

I'll keep you posted on the resolution. I am working with MSI on this issue.
Please do, I still have the board setup in a system,it runs and overclocks great but benching it fails.

Use MSI Control Center to set the bus speed in windows.
And my p67 only throttles, or refuses to boot above 49x using the latest bios. June bios is fine....

Hey Angry, could you tell me the wattage core temp reports when your system starts throttling?

So running @ 49x you are doing only 100 Watts, that is weird. I run 47x and 3 mins into prime blend test 8 thread it hits 101-105W.

That is good to hear, so a bios might help do the same on the GD80 board.
