on all of the bios and beta bios.. it will stop spin halfway

vdimm overvolts by 0.04v.. which i think is important..

typo

"a P45 board might spell nice for you, but we just do not see why should anyone upgrade to a P45 from a P45."

It is good to know that there is backplate for the MOSFET. Current mobo does not have the back plate for the MOSFET and when the mobo warp expecially fitting water block that does not comes with back plate might make the heatsink lose proper contact with the chips.

Hope Asus will implement backplate for the MOSFET for its entire P45 series (mid high end to high end)
