Are 680i's playing nicely with quad core now??

I know that Nvidia said its fixed with bios, but evga rev2.0'd the boards.

I have a BFG 680i , will it be able to nicely clock a Q6600??

anyone tried?
 
You need a Rev2 EVGA board, there's one other board (not one of the reference design ones) that has the improved functionality but I can't remember which one it is.

i know evga's latest revision of the 680i board supports quads very well now, and with latest bios update (p30) supports 1333mhz cpu's
 
I see BFG finally pulled their finger out and released the P29 and P30 BIOS. I'm tempted to get a quad myself, any one tryed them in the BFG 680i yet?
 
if you have a quad and want to clock as far as possible grab a p35 and avoid nfarce would be my advice.

theres more advantages with the p35 chipset than just the better clocking too.
 
This 680i has been good to me, would be a shame to say goodbye.

so, which p35 supports sli then as i can't seem to find one?? none it seems.
 
Single card seems much better than SLI by far. If i get another "Thread stuck in device driver" BSOD (graphics related) then I think I'll stear clear of nvidia for a bit

I put the P30 BIOS on my BFG 680i, works fine, I think CPU-Z reported 0.02V more voltage (so possibly less vdroop). No quad core to test it on :( yet ;)
