I have that configuration and I can't get passed the 230 FSB mark on CAS 2-2-2-5.
Even if I change the CAS settings to 3-3-3-7 It does not matter.
It seems that my mobo has a multiplier problem because even w/ 5:4 it did not boot @ 231mhz.
I emailed mrzee who has the same mobo and memories that I have and tryed every possible configuration.
So, should I sell this board and get like a really good epox one or should I get like a Geil pc 4000 memory so I can go w/ more BUS @ 1:1?

its hard to get over 230 with 'regular cooling' anyway with
a 3.0c , what cooling you got on there?

Don't even consider GeiL PC4000.

I have zalman 7000 cu + thermaltake xaser III, as far as temperature goes it is just fine.
So, should I buy a new memory like mushkin pc 3500 / ocz?
