AndreaEG6,

What bios are you running?

Have you tried to loosen up the ram timings and performance levels, to try and focus on whether it's memory or cpu holding you back. You know maybe 9-9-9-30 2N TRFC 100 and perf on 9. maybe even try a divider.

Another thought maybe try without load-line calibration enabled. you have to account for this though, so for 1.4v load you may need to enter 1.54v into bios.

i'm sure others will have suggestions. just a few thoughts though.
