Sitting at 2.3GHz

[KBTuning]

ive got the HTT at 255 right now w/ a 4x multiplier on it so its at 1020... and i have the memory set to run at DDR400 but when i check sandra its only at 163Mhz/326effective

im not complaining about going from 1.8Ghz to 2.3GHz. im just curious as to why my memory would be running so SLOW....

btw im using a ASRock Dual939 SATA2, w/ 1.8Ghz 3000+A64, 1GB of DDR400 Dual Channel, Sapphire X800GTO2 modded to 16pipes and running at X850XTPE,and ive got a 420watt Thermaltake PSU pushing it all.... ive yet to see any in windows system instability but every few time i reboot xp it wont reboot. but if i turn it off wati 5 seconds and then turn it back on theres no problem.

AT's review of the that ASRock board states that they had cold boot problems similar which were fixed with a bios update to 1.20

i have the newest bios update available... and its not a cold boot issue its a warmboot.

the reason why your memory is running slow is because you're running a 133 divider. Try bumping it up to a 166 divider, it should run at around 200 MHz.

problem is in my bios i only have option of DDR400, DDR333, DDR266....

but i found that there was a Memory Flexibility option and that got rid of the issue now im running at 2.35ghz and my mem is at 212 even though its just cheapo Kingmax Value Ram.
