I saved and saved and saved and finally got the goods... but for some reason, the numbers are in the toilet (in my opinion). I would like the Hardware powers that be to have a look and tell me what may be going wrong... I just know I should be getting higher scores... I will try to be as thorough as possible in describing the setup, so if its overkill, im sorry.
As far as overclocking goes, I wouldnt consider myself a Noob, I have been playing with it for a while, and know pretty much I'd say a decent amount of what there is to know ( i better, da**it) so I am just really stumped on this one.
Hopefully if I can resolve this issue, it will benefit other people in their setups.
The Setup....
Athlon FX-57 @ 3150
OCZ EL DDR PC-4000 Gold GX XTC 2GB Dual Channel
a8n Sli Premium 1009
2x80GB Dell Licensed Raptors in Raid0 (check these on Dell Business, they are actually cheaper than the reg. raptors, and u get 10 more gigs)
Timing Mode: Manual
Memclock index value: 400 mhz
Cas latency (TCL) : 3
Min ras active time (TRAS) : 8
Ras to Cas delay (TRCD) : 4
Row precharge time (TRP) : 3
Row Cycle time (TRC) : 16
Row refresh cycle time (TRFC) :22
Read-to-write time (TRWT) : 3
Write recovery time (TWR) : 3
1T/2T memory timing : 1t
S/W Dram over 4gb remapping : Disabled
H/W Dram over 4gb remapping : Disabled
Hyper transport frequency : 4
Amd K8 Cool'nQuiet : Disabled
Overclock profile: Manual
CPU frequency : 200
PCI Express : 100mhz
DDR voltage : 2.8
Chipset voltage : 1.6
HT voltage : 1.25
CPU multiplier : 15
CPU voltage : 1.500
PCI clock syncronization mode : 33.33mhz
Now, I have a zalman fan blowing on the Ram, an xp-120 keeping my CPU @ 25c. Its in a ThermalTake Armor Case with more 120 fans than I know what to do with and a very good 620W OCZ PS. The two 7800 gt's are a chilly 33c while idle.

I feel that I could be getting more out of my system, and hopefully someone out there has a similar setup, or maybe some new ideas to help me really tune this biatch to really take off. I can offer a month of FTP access to anyone that can successfully point me in the right direction
But yeah. Any progress I make I will of course post here so that others can use the info.
