I don't mean to bash but...

Don't expect to get a very high OC.

I have this M/B and it isn't working as well as I first thought. I'm running the e4300 with the 200 fsb. So far it seems to stop at 261 or 262 FSB. Every time I clock over that it fails boot until I get to 266MHZ where it seems to reset the clock back to 199mhz for a cpu speed of 1.795GHZ. This is with ddr1 or ddr 2 memory. So when I set the FSB as 300 cpu-z shows 225mhz. Only 25 over stock.
FSB as set----as measured by cpu-z------- cpu freq.-----mem latency
250 -------------- 250-------------------------- 2250 ----------3 14
266 --------------- 199 --------------------------1795 -------- 3 15 179
267 --------------- 200.2 -----------------------1802---------3 28
274 ---------------205---------------------------1849--------- 3 15
285 ----------------213-------------------------1923----------3 24
300 --------------- 225-------------------------2025----------3 15 165

See how the clock reverts at around 266. Any one have an idea why this happens?
Performance tests seem to prove the measured speeds over the speeds set in the bios.

I have a 530j at 233x15 (3.5 GHz.) I'm going to get another C2D in April or May for it. Got it with a E4300 but bought a $29 ASRock 775Dual-VSTA for that chip.

Is there a program that can read the memory speeds?
