hows the board working out for you? this should surely be competitive in the blizzcon competition
I bought this board about a week ago, with that exact thought in mind.
Did some Bclk testing today and ended at 250 on dry ice. 😄
I didn't get a CPU-z screenshot of it, but I have a .dat file.
Not sure if there is a way to convert it or not. :confused:
Next session, I'll get screenies.

hi
sorry for the very late reply lolz. have been busy the past few months testing and exchanging hardwares so today, i finally came up with a final build. so here are some of the pics i took of my mobo and my rig.
Stable @ 3.7Ghz on CoolIT Vantage ALC and Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1600 2:6 @ 6-7-7-19

I got 8GB of that XMS3 ram and my motherboard is after getting very unstable with it.
Heres what I have managed with mine in a quick and dirty LN session few days back...still improving, was only second time clocking the board so far. Like the BIOS, havent noticed any bclk holes or memory divider issues ..which is nice.

Seems around 4-5ns lower latency at the same settings compared to some MSI Trinergy's I am testing now as well... Heres a few pics of the Gene in action.
Hoping to hit sub-6 1mil Pi real soon.. just gotta jam some voltage on these rams 😉
**Had to perform ColdBug mod on mobo..as "LN mode" in BIOS does nothing to alter the cold bug boot issue at around -40c.. I removed the resistor on the affected PCI-E signaling lane..and soldered the two leads direct. I am now able to boot at the stable temp limit of the CPU at about -145c.
