witte - Actually the issue may be that the northbridge is fed by two voltage sources, vnd and vcore (assuming you were using an nForce2 board).

I never actually got around to testing the effect of decoupling them and only feeding from one source but if one half is running at vnb and the other is being fed vcore (2.0v+) then it could be causing signaling issues...


maybe i'll have to break out the nF7's..
