Is there something I need to tweek in the bios to get it running past 220, or do i need to upgrade my mobo?

And if so any recommendations on what motherboard i should pick up?

I was considering either the classified or the rampage 3.
any gigabyte EX58-xx is limited to around 225 bclk with pci-e wall at 103 unless you hard mod your board. X58A-xx motherboards can do 225+ bclk and 103+ pci-e along with sata3 and usb3... I should have got the X58A-ud5
