can't break 520 with crucial ballistix ddr2-1000 5-5-5-15

[T07N]

I bought these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820146563
I think they are Micron D9GMH ics.

Tried oc'ing them for the first time tonight on my rig in my sig but I can't surpass 520mhz on them.

I tried 1.55v nb and 1.40 fsb term volt my cpu is getting feed plenty of power. I dont know why I can't go over 520... even when my settings are 5-5-5-15 and i'm pumping 2.4v into them. I'm using the latest bios for p5b dlx as well.

Help?

I can run the specs in my sig with rock solid stability. but it just wont hit 530+.

anyone???

Just did some more testing:

Well I know I'm not memory limited. I don't think this mobo like 1:1 high fsb. Any tips to run higher fsb? At 1:1

Maybe someone will need this info if they have similar specs as I do. I found that it's probably a problem with this board. It will not go over 530fsb at 1:1 no matter what.

It will not go over 530fsb at 1:1 no matter what.likely reasons:
1)mobo can't hit 530FSB
2)CPU FSBwall :)

[T07N]

The cpu has an fsb wall? Lame, that might be it. I tried 3 board already, all of them stuck at 530fsb doing 1:1.

3boards stuck with the same CPU @ FSB530 ... 99.9% it's FSBwall :)

Running 1:1 gave me SUPER high latency though... So I like running 2:3 now...

Don't know why that score got lower.

I don't know if it's cause I cleaned up the hdd a little or is this new config making the comp feel faster. Damn I need to get raid 0 soon. Hdd is really holding me back.
