I have an e6600 on a P5b vanilla board. I am overclocking it. I can set the CPU frequency from 100 to 400. I can only set my DRAM frequency to 533, 667, 800, 889, and 1067.

I have the CPU frequency set at 300. My DRAM frequency is set at 533.

According to CPU-Z my FSB:DRAM ratio is 1:1. Shouldn't it be something else? I was under the impression that that to have a 1:1 ratio you needed your DRAM to be double your CPU frequency for a conroe processor. Maybe I'm confused about something and the DRAM frequency should always be 533 for this processor? Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Run Sandra?

533MHz X 2 for the RAM is 1:1 since the FSB is 1066. Now even if you overclock to 300, the RAM is just showing where you started from. Or this may not show it's overclocked Speed of now 600MHz or you have the RAM locked at 533 some how.
