I just got some BH-5, and I need to stress-test it. The only computer I have that I can use for testing right now is an AXP that is multi-locked at 11x, and it can only handle up to a 221MHz FSB. Are there any problems running an nForce2 motherboard (DFI LP NFII Ultra B) with the RAM at a HIGHER than 1:1 ratio? I know the performance suffers at asynchronous clocks, but I don't care about the performance- just MemTest. Has anyone successfully run a 200MHz FSB CPU with, say DDR500 via a 5:4 ratio?

Edit: I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum, I couldn't decide if it was appropriate under RAM, chipsets/motherboards, or OC.
 
my intial thought is that you shouldn't try running on a ratio without a bios savious flashed and ready.

when i tried running my DFI LP NFII ultra B on a ratio like that, it corrupted my bios instantly.
