I can not get anything over 450 FSB to work. 451-459 will post but it won't go into windows. Also I can't seem to run this ram at over 1:1. I've tried all the deviders and it won't post cept 1:1. And at 800 mhz I can run it 4-4-4-12 but at 900 I can't run CAS 4. Can run 5-4-4-12 but that is it, and It doesn't even seem to be helping anything. I'm a little iffy about going over 2.2v actual with this ram. Being it's 2.0-2.1v specs I don't want to burn it out. I've taken it to 2.2v and still no success. I have lowered my Vcore to 1.4000 in BIOS 1.384v actual in CPU-Z which brought my temps down 4*. So I'm stuck at 450 FSB which is still a nice OC IMHO. I think I'll wait for the next BIOS update to put a few more hours into this rig.
Good review over and AnandTec. I tried their 450 FSB setting and it runs just as good as what I had. They have a few more auto settings which I was going manual and it lowered my SB voltage by .2v. So now just time to work on getting stable on lowest possible voltage, and squeeze some more performance out of it in it's current state.
