    Its not much of a difference, but before the bios update core temp was reading the OC as 266 x 6.0, but now it reads it as 265.99 X 6 which instead of giving me a clock of 1.6GHz, it gives me a clock of 1595.94 Mhz. Tried enabling and disabling the overclock but its still the same, anyone else get this aswell?

    Yep. I got that. I rolled back to A03 because of it.

    It sounds petty but... meh.... every hertz counts ;)
