looking at the forums im wondering this, i cant se a nf2 mobo goin up to 300fsb in normal conditions while nf3 o nf4 mobos go up like crazy with the same ram, i was wondering about this couse i have somo mushkin level 2 pc3500, and i can get 245fsb with everything on (cpc, interface agressive, apic, etc) and if i wanna upgrade can i expect the same ram to go higher in a nf4 or nf3 chipset??

Like enzor said, the NF2 chipset was not made to run high fsb. The NF3 and NF4 chipsets are made to clock higher, this is mostly possible due to HTT. Moving to an NF3 board doesn't mean that your memory will neccisarily overclock higher. It will only run faster if your chipset couldn't achieve the same speed as the memory. In your case I don't know how much higher of a ram clock you will be able to get with an NF3 board unless you crank up the voltage or lower you latencies.
