I thought i saw somewhere at one point how some system will be unstable at above 230fsb? My system is at 230fsb and perfectly stable, my 3500+ venice on a dfi lanparty ultra-d board. If i go to 231, I am unstable. My ht is at 920mhz (not at home right now so not totally sure on all my bios settings) I am running 1:1 divider, upped the vcore a notch on the cpu and a notch on the ram as well. When I was overclocking each part to determine max mhz (the wonderful athlon 64 oc guide here), I know the ram was at like 260 or higher and still no errors. So what is this over 230 mhz fsb problem that I seem to be having. My cpu runs at 34c idle, never goes over high 30's to 40c on full load.

Ahh, that was it.. dang.. I have them on 1 and 2 now. I do not recall what controller it is for ports 3 and 4. Is the nvidia sata controller better? I know nvidia controller is ports 1 and 2.
 
Is this issue common with Nforce boards? I have an NF8 that won't crack more than 230, and there are only 2 SATA connectors on board..
