I wish I knew how to post this. Yeah, it is in safe mode but still 201Mhz = 402MHz FSB aint too shabby even for safe mode. Concidering I am not even doing extreme cooling on the board. I really think it is my video though. For mem timings, you don't even wanna know. = )

*EDIT*
I know I am not the first, but it is just damm cool! =)

So your approximate speeds are:
FSB: 200
AGP: 100
PCI: 50

...wow, I wonder what's holding up chipset manufacturers.

memory was like 770/978 This was because I heavily scaled back the mem timings to achieve this FSB.

don't post such things. I thought I was not going to upgrade for at least 3 months.

My RAID controller can run at 66Mhz, my SBLive is just cool and so is my NIC. What can I say, we all can just get along.

what memory timing speeds are you using to get that? also, at what speed can you get into windows normally, without having to go to Safe Mode?

I can get windows at 196Mhz. I have problems with the PCI video card though. It runs on a prayer at speeds above 190Mhz.
Mike
Ohh mem timings are 8-8-9-4-10-2.5-4
The lowest you can go basically. I was going for pure FSB not RAM performance. Never tried any other settings, however I think it will do it at harsher timings.

ok, thanks for letting us know Mike.

one other question: what is the highest Sisoft Sandra memory score that you can get, and at which fsb setting did you attain it at?
