I've been trying to get to 200FSB with my rev. 1.04 A7N8X Deluxe ever since I got my 2500+. The max stable setting I can get with BOTH of my Kingston HyperX PC3500 modules in is 185x12 = 2220MHz. Memory running in dual channel. For the life of me I could not figure out why it wouldn't go farther. First I thought it was the board. Then I read an article about cutting the L12 bridge to force motherboard to read the CPU as a 266MHz part. Okay, so I did that and moved up about 3MHz in FSB. Then it hit me, DUH, just run one DIMM because OC's are usually more stable that way.
So I removed one DIMM. 200MHz FSB, default voltage, stable
So, my question is, would you guys rather have more RAM and run at slightly less bandwidth OR less RAM because you can run at 200MHz FSB?
