doesnt matter what combination of fsb/nbs/mem ratio is used to get to 1200mhz, it refuses to post.
lol that sounds like my issue. Can you by any chance get 1199 (bios) stable? I can, but as soon as I increase it to 1200, it will not even POST. Major problem there obviously.

Also are you on the P5Q-Deluxe?

**After reading through the M2F thread (most of it anyway) I don't think I even want a M2F anymore. The M2F bioses dont have PL manually adjustable, and dont have clock skew etc adjustments. You have to flash it to the Rampage bios to get those adjustments, which is insane considering how much those damn boards cost - I would have thought they'd have more options than the P5Q-Deluxe but they actually have less.

Also the amount of people with weird instabilities, inability to go above 450 FSB with dual core wolfdales, the now famous 'DET DRAM' error, 3D apps and Vista Aero theme causing bluescreens despite the system being otherwise stable, and massive ram incompatibilities, make me not want that board in a big way. There are also a large number of people on their 2nd and 3rd boards and still having various issues. Quite honestly they look like overpriced, flakey, crap. Maybe the P5Q-D's are better?
