It was a while back but I believe it did work back when I was benching 754.

It works fine. As I remember that board does pretty high vdimm on it's own though.

3.1v was the max, though many people used a 5v rail mod to go beyond that.

If you have some good BH-5, 3.1v doesn't quite get to 250FSB with 2-2-2...more like 3.3~3.4v to see the happy side of 250FSB on NF-3.

I could reach 270+ at 2-2-2-7 on my NF-4 DFI LP with 3.6v on 2x256 KHX PC 3000, around 245 was max at 2-2-2 on the NF-3 with 3.1v on the same ram.

I have a nice 2x256mb set that can do 280-285 1m stable, but it needs around 3.6-3.7v at that speed. Which is why I need that booster to work:D

Thanks alot for your answers!
