also chuckbam. i seem to have the same mobo/ram/cpu as you. id love to get your exact bios settings if you could message that to me. ram timings etc, etc.
thanks a bunch.

Hi,
My settings are basically:

CPU.. 360
DRAM 900
PCI Express 100 ( Any higher it keeps reverting to 1X bus vs 16x on some re-boots)
PCI Clock 33.33
Spread Spectrum .. Disabled
Memory Volts 2.3
V Core 1.3875

CAS 4
CAS Delay 5
RAS % 5
RAS Active 12

Ie 4-5-5-12

For some reason, default or looser memory timings result in a overclock.
failure. I was running 4-4-4-12 when I had 2GB RAM. But when I went up to 4GB, I had to change it to 4-5-5-12. I tried about every RAM timing possible on this board.

Most everything else is at default.

I had greater overclocks but I settled on this for stability and 24/7 operation.
