1227mhz 5-5-5-18 Everest mem latency 45.7, mem read 11660
Boot at 1200 then raise FSB so mem at 1227 gives latency 43.5, mem read 12101

Jeremy 617 - have you checked those voltages with a volt meter? I was under the impression that CPUID was usually pretty accurate (something I could easily be wrong about).
I think the problem is that the bios is setting the extended timings way too lax.

You can't control very many of them, and that would explain why it is an all of the sudden drop, and not gradual.

The auto settings on this board suck.
