Hi guys...
I encountered serious problem with K8NSNXP-939 using 4 DDR400 512MB TwinMos (dual faces).
Timing goes "away" and BIOS continuosly reset himself.
It's a tragedy.
I sent an e-mail to the Gigabyte Assistance, asking them some suggestion about the timing to apply to my MoBo, and this was their answer...
Dear Sir,
Thank you for your kindly mail and supporting Gigabyte.
About the issue you mentioned in your earlier mail, in fact, according to AMD AP note BIOS should set to DDR333 with two dimm DDR400 , we still provide related option item if user try to change to DDR400. But, we will not guarantee the module/system will work properly. We are really sorry for the inconvenience and trouble you encounter because of the CPU limitation.
At last, we apology if our past service was not satisfactory. Due to the vast amounts of questions we receive daily, we understand the inconvenience of waiting for e-mail responses. If you still have any further question or suggestion about our product, please do not hesitate to contact with us. Thanks again for your understanding, and please receive our sincerely apology.

Question :
Could you please suggest me the setting for memory timings because I continue to receive errors during setup or installation. Defaults setting seems not properly right for a working system.
More... why in the AUTO settings for memory speed BIOS recognizes a clock speed of 166MHz instead of 200MHz?
Last... I receive also errors during benchmark with 3DMark03 and 3DMark05... but I suspect errors in the memory timings.
Thanks in advance for your help.
