The Haswell floodgates have opened and all the major enthusiast web sites have started publishing articles and reviews. The download near the end of HardOCP's review is worth a look, whether or not you plan on buying an Asus motherboard.

Obviously there are a thousand more options to tweak with in the BIOS. ASUS has flat out told me, "Everything else has auto rules and YOU DO NOT need to adjust them." Of course you can play with the "usual culprits" in the BIOS that generally give us better overclocking. However after spending a lot of time overclocking this Haswell, ASUS seems to be spot on in the above observation. You can download this 3MB zipped file that contains yet-to-be final ASUS OC Guide and a quick white paper on PCB layout and memory clock signaling from our servers. This guide is NOT in its final form yet, but I doubt there will be any big changes made at this point. Actually, if you geek out on CPU and motherboards, it is actually a good read.
