    8/10. For a few reasons.

    1) Your mobo isn't really going to go well with such nice overclocking RAM, I would prefer a DFI Lanparty nForce4 Ultra-D, or a DFI Lanparty nForce4 SLI-DR like mines (well at least the one I should be getting in a few days).

    2) AMD Athlon 64 4000+ overclocks to about the same speed as an Athlon 64 3700+. You would have been better off getting a 3700+ and getting a better graphics with the money saved. Other than that I think it is a very nice rig.

    I bet thats down to the motherboard not the ram. Very unusual to see Bh5 at 3.3v doing under 250mhz even the new stuff.

    Can you clock the ram higher with the CPU running slower?

    I personally am liking the WC and the bling factor in that rig. Very pretty.

    8,8857658763167324940317619801214 or pi*sqrt(2)... why? because it's an oddball number close to nine. and that asus mobo (probably the reason for your ram divider...you need some volts man!). other considerations would have been getting a better gfx (7800GTX), 3700 over 4000 would have done it. anyway, what you have currently is gonna be one helluva rig as is!
