As I have stated, I already tried lower HTT multipliers, and the RAM will not go over 220 MHz regardless of what CPU multipliers are used. I can max out (stable) at 275 MHz FSB so long as I use lower CPU, HTT and RAM multipliers. The only thing CPU-Z varies from what the BIOS reports is with...

I am trying to figure out whether this is the memory controller (integrated into the CPU), the motherboard, or the RAM. I can run the CPU at a Prime95 (blend) stable 2304 MHz using 1.6v, 256x9, 4x HTT, 5:4 (166MHz divider, works out to 213 MHz) 2-2-3-10 1T (2.85v) for hours on end. This is a...

I have tried all manners of voltage with this ram, I have tried all bios versions from 1.2 - 1.41, and I only use IDE, with all SATA items turned off in the bios. I have also tried this with low HTT multipliers such as 2-3x, although 4x256 is Prime95 (blend) stable for 12 hours using the 166...

damn ... forgot to mention that ... i have already tried loosening the timings up quite a bit. Doesn't seem to help. There is definately a problem here. Heat is also not an issue, as i have ducted the hell out of this system, got lout fans, a killer heatsink, and temps are all nice and low...

okay, i guess what i want to know is how I am to figure out if my problem is CPU or RAM related. I am able to get the CPU up to a prime95 (blend and max fpu) stable 2304 mhz but i have to bring the memory ratio down a notch to the 166mhz multiplier (if you have seen this bios, you know what i...

No one has ANY reply to this?

This board has TWO jacks for Cat5. I do not have any plans on using the board for ics or any other use for two nics. Speed is not really an issue, as this is a small home network and even 10baseT would have been satisfactory to me. I am also behind a decent firewall on my router, so I do...

Okay, sounds logical. I will start building my system now. I guess i will go with the onboard sound. I can always upgrade later if it suits me. Thanks for the link.

I was wanting to get some opinions on this: I already have a soundblaster Live! value which when it was the latest and greatest was touted as being able to offload the sound processing from the CPU ... I am pretty sure that the onboard sound on my K8N NEO2 PLATINUM is all done through...

No, you get it all wrong. This is primarily a fun machine. The Photoshop stuff I do is all hobby stuff. My primary goal is framerates, but I am willing to sacrifice 1T to have 2 gigs of ram for photoshop stuff. My only disappointment is that I did not do the amount of research I should have...

Okay, This was the ram that I was going to use as well. I mentioned that in my original message. Remember though that i was wanting to overclock with 2gb, not just 1gb. Also, keep in mind that 512mb X 4 OCZ EL Platinum Revision 2 Dual Channel memory would only achieve 333mhz due to this...

Okay, According to the manual, this motherboard is unable to support anything beyond ddr333 when 4 double-sided DIMMS are used. Since I want to achieve 2 GB RAM, my only choices are 4x512mb OR 2x1024mb. At first, I was going to grab FOUR OCZ PC3200 Platinum Rev. 2 modules, but these are...
