Just out of curiosity, why can the Springdale/Canterwood based boards fly all the way to 300mhz fsb and beyond for the average board and the Nforce2 boards seem to be stuck with an fsb limit of around 230mhz at best?? Is the board architecture the limiting factor or is it the chipset or what? Seeing how memory speeds are touching DDR500 now and AMD cpus run best in synch with the fsb, the performance boost would certainly be welcome on the aging platform.
I have an 8RGA+ that gets to about 228mhz, but no more (mated with Twinmos PC3200 and a 2100+). The performance is awesome for the price (runs 24/7 at 10x222) but something like 9x250 would be a whole lot of fun too. I'd rather have the cpu or the memory be the limiting factor.
