No the Gigabyte controller is not faster. Use the Intel. As far as BIOS settings, here is a nice guide (pdf document) http://www.giga-byte.com.my/FileList...bios_guide.pdf

ok, i've finally got it to work properly (I tried to go to x21 on 133mhz but got some alarm from my pc about the core going over 60)

is there a way I can copy my bios properties directly from windows? or do i have to go to my bios and copy by the template to show you guys?

for 3.8ghz clock just go in bios and set it to this,its what ive been using for a year now and 100% stable,set bclk to 180,set your qpi voltage to 1.3000v, set your ram voltage to 1.66v, set your ram timings to what they are rated at on the packaging for example7-7-7-24-1T and raise your memory multiplier to give you as close to 1600mhz,set system performane to standard and set your cpu voltage to "normal" voltage setting(1.18750v) your uncore freq is twice what the ram multi is then add one to it so if ram multi is 8 uncore is 17......set the alarm setting in bios or easytune for 75c

warren, I don't want to overclock my cpu all the way to 3.8 as this is my firstime clock so I would like to start with a safe clocking speed and template.
do you have any suggestions for a lower clock?

thanks for the help up until now!

3.8 isnt that big an overclock,and with your cooler you should do 3.8ghz quite easy.. for overclock of 3.4 or 3.6 just set your bclk to give you 3.4-3.6ghz and set ram multi for 1600mhz all voltages can be left as the same ie: cpu normal voltage,ram 1.66,qpi 1.30000v

warren, i've tried this
it goes into limbo, and when i reset it it comes back telling me there was a problem with the overclocking and gives me the default values to load with.

help?
