I agree there Campbell.

Oh and apparently, the "troll" earlier was Soldnermofo guy. Same IP.

See here.
Are you sure its working? That much has worked for everyone AFAIK, but can you show us an EVEREST/AOD reading alongside CPUZ?
Can you validate those CPUZ clocks?

I'll show you a way to test if your NB is really changing.
Throw the HT to the same multi as NB. If NB really is changing, the HT will be changed to the same speed. If not, the HT will not change above 9x which is because 9x is the real operating NB multi.

Try it. If its working, then you'll be able to validate with CPUZ and all software will be in sync (you can see macci's ss as a good example how). Also performance should'nt drop with higher NB but increase.

Have you tried it with FSB: DRAM 1:2?
Yep, I only ever ran DRAM 1:2. It doesn't change from stock 9x (upwards) and you can test EVEREST bandwidth to show you if it has changed. Higher NB definitely improves mem bandwidth/latency and L3 cache performance (see above macci's ss again). I've tried real (9x) 2160MHz and (8x) 1920MHz on NB at 2640MHz CPU to see the effects before.
