i cant seem to figure out my systems problem with oc'ing. currently im at a peak with a big voltage increase. if you look in my sig, you can see what im refering to. my bios is 15, settings listed below, anyone have any suggestions? i just want to hit 250fsb so i can have the 1000fsb / 400ddr going. i dunno why i have to push my vcore so high to sit where im at now. the actual is about 1.63-1.66v. but thats high. i can boot at 3.0ghz with a 5:4 ratio at stock vcore, any higher and it needs higher vcore. SAD. most people get 3.2ghz off stock vcore.

1.7 is coming end of this next week (supposedly). Its suppose to help with the 255 fsb issues.

I have hella time with dual channel and anything even close to 255. I am sure that it is memory as I can get it stable with one stick of memory and a fsb of 263, but as soon as I try dual channel I can't even get it to boot at 255 and the memory is unhappy at 5:4 timing (just over 200) and 3:2 timing won't even boot. I think 3:2 timing is broken or something. Its like it tries to start at 1:1 before switching to 3:2.

Am hoping for good things from this new bios.
