well let's say they work - -40°C ok here, -45 sometimes "63" (P8P67 Pro). Both of my chips didn't liked higher than 1.65Vcore. clocks where more or less exactly the same on air compared to singlestage.

any chance such option will make it into P8P67 Pro?

alright, trying to test this in XP X64, but after all updates, chipset driver install, task manager is only seeing a single core.

device manager sees all the cores under processor, and multi acpi is showing under computer...but task manager will only show a single core. been searching online for an hour for a fix with no luck. anyone else?

wish I would have gotten one of these instead of the deluxe, will not even boot x52 multi where as on gd65 I can run superpi32 at x53

Maybe the task manager is switched to "one graph all cores" mode? In Win7 it's in View -> CPU History -> one graph per CPU.

nope, checked that. it is set to one graph for each core, and it won't let me set affinity.

task manager thinks there is only 1 core, but device manager sees however many cores/threads i enable. it is the weirdest thing.

tried setting "numproc=4" manually? (boot.ini / msconfig)

yup, tried that too. msconfig won't let you set anything other than 1, and manually adding it to boot.ini does nothing.

this is retarded.

Bit better, but still not the right performance: http://hwbot.org/forum/showpost.php?...2&postcount=30

Q_RESET button activated, and the BCLK clock was fixed at 100
BCLK 100 more than the BIOS settings, and to check back in a window is fixed at 100. Please check.


BIOS 0951

your Management engine module of the current bios rom seems to be screwed up. flip over to the second bios rom on the mobo
