EPOX 4g4ai with intel inf's and overclocking

[CU]

After reading all of the really long Epox 4g4a thread and my adventures here. I have finally got a descent overclock. Read my post from the last link to find out what I did and what was happening. I do have one question though. I first moved my ram to slot 2 like what most people said. Well I get a memory error there. You know the long beep with no post. So, I moved it to slot 3. That works fine. Is my slot 2 dead, this is a new board. I did put some Kingmax in slot 2 when I first got the MB. The ram had some capacitors missing on it. Seems to be a bad patch, search for Kingmax here and you should find it. Anyway could this ram have killed slot 2? I am not sending it back now matter what, to much trouble. Plus I don't think I will every have all the banks filled up. Now does anyone know why moving the ram effects overclocking or what the intel inf files do that give a hugh increase in performance put hurt overclocking?

I just tried setting my Cosair XMS PC3200 Cas 2.5 to run at 354 instead of 266. Even with 2.7 volts it will not load UT 2003. Is this caused by the inf's? Or is the ram bad? Also does anyone know what Internal Clock Maximum in 3DMark 2001 means? It says 2400 for my 1800.
