Looking for some input, have a pair of OCZ 4400 512mb motherboard is IC7-G, was looking for some 275+ 1:1 action, unfortunately memory is not stable in windows anything above 240 with bios 2.2. I've tried pretty much every bios setting I can think of, and I've tried every bios from 1.3 to current 2.2, now using bios 1.7 I'm able to get 254 stable. voltage from 2.5-2.9, no difference, Timing by spd and set manually to 3,4,4,8. PSU voltage stable and correct, have tried all mem slots, single and dual channel, no difference.
Memory will make it almost through post @spec settings, but freezes after drive detection. then yields fast continuous beeps, reset yields bios checksum error. At this point it takes a CMOS clear to get back into bios.
So can anyone see anything obvious I'm missing? I haven't even bothered with memtest as i cannot even come close to mem specs. it is NOT a cpu issue as the 2.4C will run 300.
I've probably missed some obvious facts, please feel free to post anything you feel pertinent.
