[Brother Ali]

Im confused when I see this:

"CPU: E6400

Stepping: 6 B2
Week: L632
Code: A314
vCore: 1.368

Cooling: Air
Cooler brand/model: Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
Full Load Temp: 57c
Idle Temp: 46c

Motherboard: Asus P5B-Deluxe
Bios Version: 0804
Operating System: XP Pro 32bit

RAM brand: Crucial Ballistix
RAM rated speed: 800
RAM actual speed: 800
Latency: 4-4-4-12
Ratio: 1:1"

Now I have the same setup; except when I pick "400X8"; my memory setttings dont give me the ratio of 1:1 for 800. 1:1 ratio gives me 1200mhz. Whats the deal? My motherboard is a gigabyte with p35 chipset.

On the first (opening) page of the BIOS, hold down the Ctrl key, then hit the F1 key. Then, when you go to the same page where you can manually change your FSB, farther down you need to change your RAM multiplier from 3x to 2x. Save and exit, and your RAM speed will now match your FSB speed.

^^^ What he said. Pressing CTRL F1 in main menu unclocks the overclocking options in MIT menu on Gigabyte boards.
