I'm also running a P4 2.26Ghz CPU, 1 512 stick of corsair XMS 3200 memory aswell. I've currently got it clocked at 2.5Ghz comfortably (default voltage) with an Alpha heatsink fitted, M/B temp=22c CPU temp=32c at idle and have only seen it hit 40c max.

My question is with the memory, how far can I push it? I really am not sure about the memory ratios, please explain this to me 1:1, 4:3, 4:5. Settings are currently 1:1 2.5/3/3/6 2.65v I'll push these more when I find my CPU's sweet spot.

4:5 means when you're running your cpu at 133 fsb, your memory is running at 166 (133/166 = 4:5) I would try it at your present fsb setting, and see if it will boot. If it doesn't, you can change the ddram voltage to 2.6 or 2.7 and try again. Good luck.
