    Hypermax PC2-9600 works fine with this board. Bump up the MCH voltage.

    The northbridge, X38.

    Set it to 1.55V or so and try again. I have 4x 1GB sticks in mine and works fine at 1200 but you must disable Transaction Booster/AI Booster unless you're doing 8x450. Using 9x400 it won't work if you have them enabled to Strong/Enabled = 0.

    In that case the BIOS will report DRAM as 1199MHz and you can have strong AI booster and transaction booster enabled = 0 configured.

    It works here with the only difference that I have tested it at 9x450 and 8x450.

    Do what I said with the MCH voltage and set the timings manually, i.e. 5-5-5-12.

    On mine 1200MHz will work at down to 2.06V set in the BIOS though I run it at 2.10V at 1133MHz due to my Q66090 overclock.

    CELLSHOCK 9200 works fine with this board.
    There is only one problem...... i cant boot at 1200 cl4. i tried 2.7V and it doesn't help. i don't know what is the reason that caused this problem.
    Maybe the next bios will be better.

    2.38V - bios
    550, cl4 full stable.
