I installed the latest revision motherboard (what is shipping now) and everything installed fine, but, I still cannot use the 3rd memory slot. I currently have 4GBs of Ram in there. I am running the beta Bios 1.0.3.

Those temps are high considering your PC has the H2C unit. My temps are lower than that and my rig is air cooled.

Oh, my bad. I just assumed that since you were running the 965 that your rig was liquid cooled. I have my CPU fans set at 20% with my clock speed at 3.6ghz. My temps idle at 40ºC (104ºF) and they've spiked as high as 54ºC (129ºF) when under a load which is well within the allowable temp range. My room temperature is about 70ºF.

Mine is also air cooled. Guess I will play with the fans.
