    Why doesnt it work though? The x38 boards are made to support these chips, if they dont we deserve a refund since its on the box itself. Honestly though, are the problems occurring when overclocking?

    Sounds like a good plan, didn't realize you were running 4 gig. Should have looked at your sig, lol. I'd keep the Ballistix set. Don't know about the Patriot, but the Ballistix run pretty well on this board as long as you don't have any of the new revision.

    They're Micron D9's. Only thing that puzzles me is, why can't I run all 4 gb's @ say 800mhz memory, relaxed timings and still OC the CPU itself to 3.X-4.Xghz ?

    I tried Raising the NB Voltage to 1.5v and wow...it went up to 43c and hard locked in BIOS after the unsucessful boot into Windows of a BSOD.

    you should be able to do 4.0ghz with that cpu verry easily
    and you should be able to run all 4 sticks easily
    if i had your cpu i'd be @ 4.5
    i got my 4 sticks to 1200mhz 100% stable 1.6v nb 2.13v ram
    before you even put the board in case you should prepare it lol
    change the sb tim look if nb nice n flat"i put mx2 on mine" i run 1.6v lol n i get 38c full load @ 500fsb you dont like your temps get a fan lol
    use divider 333/667 or 333/800 = 1:1 n 5:6
    and just remember 4 stick you need more juice on nb why dont you start with 2 sticks get it stable first then you go with 4 sticks
    btw you got bandaids for your wrists
    i spend days of reading before i got this board goin nice and still i'm learnin
    if ya need more razorblades just ask lol

    clock fine delay tweaking is the key http://i4memory.com/showthread.php?t=4743

    Also helps to test each module individually and rate them and usually I put the best 2 modules in 2+4 dimm slots or try to match them in their banks as some modules perform better in some slots.

    im looking for a utility that will play nice and allow fsb change inside windows with this board, any sugestions?
    Edit: I found a solution, Setfsb 2.0.b.19t and clockgenerator Y28551LFXC will work

    im running pc9200 OCZ flex at 1203Mhz atm and it works nice so far

    I have a 3200icfx and a 6600 go that do not get along . It won't go past 360 fsb seems to have known issues with vista 64. My 6400 would do over 400 fsb no prob. Before I buy this board I was wondering if anyone had issues with the 6600 and vista 64. I see that this board does the same thing the 3200icfx does when booting into vista 64 with the higher end quad I belive the 9450.
    Thanks,
    Frank
