[QUOTE="Rez Exelon, post: 1450120, member: 5800"] Yup yup! I had to RMA 2 seperate ASUS boards before I went with the MSI. The first one had it's integrated sound fail and the second had it's USB 3.0 fail. ASUS told my it was my problem and that it was the technology or OS I was using. Oddly, when I put the MSI board into the same hardware (not reinstalling the OS...just a driver refresh) everything has worked perfect! I tested with the 555 just like you, but the one that I got ran unstable when unlocked. Then again, even without the other 2 cores the 555 ran a 7.0 on the Windows 7 Winsat test. But for anyone that "needs" the extra horsepower i say pay the extra $40 for the 955. [/QUOTE]
