i am trying to break the 3Ghz on my A64 4200+x2, and i am having issues

My setup:
DFI lanparty Ultra-SLI
2Gb G.Skill HZ F1 DDR500 3-4-4-8 @250Mhz 2.7v
AMD 64 4200+x2 toledo E6 @250x11 ROCK SOLID
8800gt @690/1725/1000

i have read many of the OC'ing guides but I am not able to get 272Mhz stable. i can get the computer and windows to load at 272@1.5v which from what i read is good start to be able to boot into windows but i need to get it stable. Once i run prime95 or try and bench Crysis it errors or crashes. (Is there a guide that explain each settings on DFI LP-UT bios?)

Also i dont think it is a problem with my ram i think it has to do with the CPU but i am not sure, but i know my ran can run 1:1 if i drop the multiplier to 9x@290 and the system runs fine.

Do i need to increase the voltage higher?
Are there suggested settings for DFI LP UT-SLI, G.Skill, A64X2 E6?

**i am realy stoked to hit the 3Ghz mark as it means i can run Crysis at avg of 34FPS on High with the DX10 Xp Mod. (funny thing i was able to bench Crysis @272 fbs but i crash when i try and play the game.


***I have attached Pics and html from a64info and cpuz

What is the stepping of the CPU?

the stepping is JH-E6

No I meant what is written on the CPU itself. Sorry for misunderstanding.

You might just put that part into the search field and see what results people used to get with this part. I'd say 3GHz on s.939 dual-core is quite impressive.

Core, Week, Stepping, Revision ?
Try going here (http://www.amdgeeks.net/overclockdatabase) to see what others are getting and what they are using.

you might have reached the limit of that cpu...
i dont think its your ram holding you back...those hz's are great sticks
