    No idea, I have just moved from a QX9650 to a QX9770 and had exactly the same experience. Weird!

    This is exactly what I posted earlier, very interesting? When I used my E8400 FSB1600Mhz was no good but with the QX9770 (with native FSB1600Mhz support) works just fine with both unlinked and linked/synced!

    When I set a 475FSB I cannot set the memory any higher even unlinked. If I put in 2000MHz it just defaults to 1900MHz. I can get the board to boot at 500FSB, but it freezes starting windows, whatever memory speed I set, linked or unlinked.
