aiming for that 1ghz OC :)

Alrighty, so when i finally h20'd my rig and turned it on (i've been holding it off for months now :\) took this 2.4C all the way to 3.3ghz and sat there smiling with stock voltage of 1.5V (1.46-1.49 says MBM). Big grins now. Tested with super pi yadda, etc.. on to the gaming. Booted D3 it crashed. haha, but fortunately, it wasn't my overclock at all, just updated from 4.5cats to 4.9betas and everythings peachy now. Runs pretty damn smooth on a 9800pro. Anyway i'm at ~3.3 like this:

12 x 272 = 3.26
Running 1:1 - 1G OCZ PC4000 EL 3448 @ 2.85V

9800 Pro @ 437 / 372

It's good to run 1:1 in this bios config right? I don't think I can take this chip at 300fsb and using 5:4 divider still not get anywhere close to 272 (281 are the max of the ram too btw). Suggestions? Am I just telling a story? Haha.

nice oc so far... i'd try loosening the ram timings (if possible) and bumping ram voltage as well as vcore... then try higher

you may need to do 5:4 to get the most out of your chip, but if you do then you can probably tighten the ram timings a little to make up for the speed loss.
