Hi KnownDragon, I was not able to find the BIOS version 3000.r09 you mentioned. Would you please provide me where did you see that information?
What kind of setting are you missing on BIOS with the latest versions?
I would like to tell you that you are free to over clocked your system, we are just making a recommendation since it is required to use the correct memory type and speed when using our processors otherwise the warranty won't cover the product.
Even though Intel makes unlocked and Extreme Series processors that are robust enough to handle customizations, Intel doesn't recommend it since it could decrease the lifetime of the chip and it could generate processor damage.
