I just finished putting together a P7P55D Deluxe system w/retail i7-860 (w/Zalman CNPS8700 cooler). I just updated the BIOS to the most current (1408, dated 3/25/2010). The last desktop I put together is a now creaky Athlon 64 3200+.
As crazy as this might sound, I DO NOT want to overclock. Stability and data integrity are way more important to me.
I'm a bit confused by the CMOS settings to achieve no OCing. In Ai Tweaker should I leave CPU Level Up at Auto and Ai Overclock Tuner at Auto or should I turn the latter down to Manual and leave everything else at the defaults?
Manual isn't really clear and the BIOS update has changed the UI a bit vs. the manual anyway. For good measure, I set OC Tuner to Good Performance and am not going to bother running any auto tuning nor mucking w/anything else under Ai Tweaker.
