I was able to set the FSB to 145 without any problems. System has been running like this for over a month. It even ran 14 and myself at a LAN Party...Whahoo, I mean it's very stable. I was hoping to get at least 150FSB (1200 RDRAM), but once I choose 150 or 148 FSB I get blue screens. Others are able to get this with default vcore. Can you tell me what to look for?

You might be able to tweak it a bit, but if you wanna go higher, you're gonna have to eventually up the core voltage. Every chip is different and oc's different at default v-core...:)

you might also try lowering your rdram speed to 3x instead of 4x to eliminate ram problem...rdram is more sensitive to o/c and it is over it's state speed...:)

I will try going with an increament of .5 to test.

SupermanCK, Can I do this with RDRAM? I thought this was an option with DDR. Please advise what to look for in the bios...I didn't see anything that drops 3 to 4 anywhere. Also, the RDRAM is 32ns so I thought I could get at least 150FSB because that's what the RIMM4200 is specified to run at. I could be wrong.

Thanks!

i am not really familar with RDRAM boards...but all i know is that you might want to drop your memory multiplier to 3x to make sure it was your memory holding you back...sometimes even the ram is rated at that speed won't do it there...
pc1066 = 1200 rdram?
