My stable settings are vcore 1.325 @ 333FSB. vMCH and vFSB are in default levels and ram timings are 5-5-5-15 @ 1:1. To reach 335 FSB, i require a vcore of 1.3375. Orthos fails at around 30-40 mins mark if i were to up the FSB to 336,337,338,339,340. The question here is why an increase of the vcore only nets a small FSB which in my case is only an increase of 3 FSB !!! O_O
set vMCH to 1.6v vFSB to 1.4v and then try booting 400x9 1.4v or 350+ 1.375-1.5v is a good range to stay in with quality air cooling or water.

And make sure your Ref Freq is 266, and mem freq is 533 so it stays 1:1 and wont hit DDR2 800 till 400fsb. Tune it from there, or what kind of OC are you looking for?
