ok here is my dilema,,,
i have a opteron 170--right now i have it at 2.6 with memory at 1:1------i can run orthos for 14hrs and no errors,,BUT i do get errors in windows memtest, so
should i leave it there at 2.6 on 1:1 divider
take it down to 2.4 or 2.5 with 1:1 divider "everything looks good there"
or keep at 2.6 with a like 9:10 divider and let my memory run a little slower

or here are my settings and maybe someone can make a suggestion to get my memory to work at 1:1 at 2.6 or maybe even higher

Dram is 1:1
timings are 3-4-4-8
everything else in the memory is at default

FSB is 260
HT multi-4x
CPU multi--10x
CPU Voltage is 1.50
DRAM Voltage is 2.81

my temps are at idle on cpu around 30degrees
and at full load on orthos at around 41degrees

as you can see in my sig what kind of memory i have and equipment
 
If you want to keep your 1/1 divider and run the RAM at DDR520, try relaxing the timings a bit more, for instance 3-4-4-11. Otherwise, yeah switch to a slightly lower divider so you can maintain your current HTT/FSB but run the memory at (or near) its rated DDR500 spec. Personally I wouldn't increase vdimm beyond 2.81 though others may say differently.
