Notice the Auto settings of FSB strap and RAM Frequency. In this BIOS v0802, I cannot use anything outside of Auto to keep 1:1 so unless, you must have deviders, then Auto is fine for 1:1. Also since every mobo is different, try to adjust the settings as marked by "*". Try DRAM Clock Twister to Light or Auto , or Static REad Control to Auto (this does return better strap scaling for FSB over 450 if strap is left in Auto). Keep RAM Booster to Disable but relax 1, 2 or so on, as needed for stability under overclocking (anything other then "0" does effect RAM scores). CPU, PLL, & vdimm can be tweaked as needed for your components. Settings were the same since BIOS v0401 except I could manual strap and set DRAM Frequency as fixed, although it made no noticable difference for me. Even w/ strap in Auto, RAM deviders are just grouped together in a bigger menu.

Can you E6750 or E6850 users let me know how this works for your mobo?

Hope this helps!
