Are you ever going to update and add my mobo the Maximus Formula SE? I have been have stability issues with patriot memory at standard clocks and was hoping your update would provide some insight.
In the article about overclocking the X38 the author wrote "The DDR2 based Gigabyte board reached an impressive 8x485.
When I look at the first image I see an overclock of 6x485 = 2910 MHz (+22%)and a memory speed of 2 x 485 x 1.2 (divider) = 1164 MHz.
Do I miss something???
I was just about to post that. Actually the first two pictures on the last page are incorrect. Both pictures show the same screenshots from EVEREST, and those two screenshots show incosistent information with the first showing 485x6 and the second showing 485x8. The MemSet screenshot for 4GB of memory shows the memory running at 485 1:1.

I think you guys meant "saddled." The chipset is burdened by the fact that it has an onboard memory controller, it's not in the back room of a strip club getting a lap dance from the memory controller :)

I have a x38-DQ6, q6600 g0, wd raptor 150 & hitachi 1tb, windows xp X64 and have been getting random blue screen/reboots whenever I enable AHCI mode.(yes f6 drivers properly installed etc)
Has anandtech had any problems with ahci on these boards? (xp x64)

You may need to install new drivers before you change mode in bios.From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Host_Control...">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Host_Control...

the drivers are properly installed, windows was installed with the drivers @ F6 mode.its not a boot up problem, it runs fine then at random times will blue screen/reboot (overclocked, not overclocked, even underclocked does the same).
