I'm just curious:
1. Your board have Bios v1.41, mine still v1.40. I can't find v1.41 at Asrock site. Please send me download link to latest Bios.
2. I can't pass Burn In Test at 4.0GHz. Stable only at 3.6GHz. My cooler is Thermolab Bada in Azza Helios 910 cage. If you don't mind, can you post all Bios Setting or send me your OC DNA.
