Hi all. Heres my problemo. I have a Asus P4P800 (not deluxe), a 2.4C @ 3.0 on stock intel HSF, and 1gb Corsair XMS PC3200 @ 2-3-3-6.

Now, I know my RAM is rated at 200mhz/400mhzDDR, but ive read a good ammount of reviews that have gotten it up to 215 and higher. In order to OC past 215 FSB, i have to go to a 5:4 divider. Now on the 5:4, i can get to 250 FSB but my RAM is still only running 200, and even then i cant pass 200. Ive upped voltages, lowered CAS timings. I dont have any idea what it could be. BIOS is updated and cooling is definately adequate. Any ideas?
 
I had terrible luck running XMS sticks past spec on my i865 board, although it was an ABIT IS7....


I found some stuff (pc3700) that wouldn't even run at rated spec, no matter WHAT I did.

make sure the PAT settings are disabled....


this is why I got pc3500
