Thanks for the reply Dee

CPU and NB clock skews affect the cpu and northbridge respectively. When you increase the FSB, especially above 400, the clock begins to drift, and the clock skew setting allows you to pull it back a little. This can aid stability. With wolfdales, anywhere from 100 - 500ps delay can help, usually 300 - 500 get the best results. I'm not sure about quads, I've never owned one. With the NB clock skew, it can be used in conjunction with the cpu clock skew, but it requires less adjustment, usually 100 - 300ps works well.

The 'Pull-ins' relate to memory channel phases. Enabling the phase pull-ins theoretically reduces the latency and increases the performance a little, kind of like reducing the PL but not as strong an effect. However, I have actually found that on my P5Q-Deluxe and Maximus II Formula the pullins do absolutely nothing.
