ive seen lots of reviews for memory and suchlike where the reviewers are getting above 250fsb quite easily, however I cant seem to get past 233. at 233 it posts fine. if i set it to 234 or higher it just does not post ive tried going up to 1.42v core but scared to go higher :), and memory up to 2.1v and still no change - wont post. any idea what could be the bottleneck? maybe the gigabyte board i guess. :-|

id love to get it running at 266fsb as my board lets me select a 14x multiplier for my 560. any ideas?
 
I would like to know aswell. My proc settings are , fsb is at 230 and the default voltage 1.3875. Can i up to more FSB without touching the voltage?
 
Can anyone give a assumption? I wanna know whats the max anyone has pushed their prescott.

Just wondering, what are your CPU temps @ idle?
 
with the 875p DFI board people have hit 6ghz on extreme cooling, but thats a diff story.
The largest everyday use overclocks are around 4-4.2GHZ.

Mine is in my sig.
