*ExtremeOc.. yea it didn't roll for me either, but a c/p'd into a new browser and it takes. Went and reset the link in this post... don't know either.

#1 Thank you for your detailed info. But some links are dead..

good board ...bios unlocks 550 cores...no problem with gskill 1600...

any SB710 will unlock and SB750. very nice board for this price, I don't think it will go any lower. Usually Mother Board don't drop in price like any other electronics.
