::I have not attempted to tune or over clock anything. System 1 tends
to kick butt relative to system 2. I am really having a hard time
believing that something is not hosed on System 2. I would expect that
the Quad Core and the Memory running a 1066 (Verified using CPUz and AMD
Overdrive tools) that the performance isn’t at least somewhat
better. Both boards are running the latest firmware.::
