I have a Gigabyte g965 ds3 with an e4400 now also. Through my testing I have gone up to 277 FSB. Once I hit 278 FSB I don't POST. I think this is a limitation of the motherboard and is probably the best one can hope to get from the g965. Still not a bad improvement at all.

Okay! Seems like my previous settings work in F3. I am going to switch to F3 to avoid the restart/shutdown issues that I get with F5 and F8. I still get that distortion before my boot manager even in F3 too though, anyone else experiencing this? In the mean time I'm just going to switch...
