What BIOS setting to change FSB:DRAM on a Asrock DUALSATAII

memory is running at 153mhz instead of 200mhz, cpu-id shows that the FSB:DRAM is the CPU MHZ/15

so I know I'm missing something

I run overclocked at 2300 via 10x230mhz, which explains the CPU MHZ/15 giving me the 153.3333mhz on the memory.

any help is greatly appreciated.

Sounds like you may have that "Memory Flexibility" option enabled, which if I remember correctly defaults to a 133MHz (2/3) memory divider. Basically, you want to make sure the Flexibility option is disabled, then change the displayed memory frequency (which is really a divider) to 200MHz (1:1, if your memory can handle 230MHz), or 166MHz (5:6, for a 10x multiplier; would result in 190MHz RAM).

I do have it turned on and without it on it wont boot, sounds like my memory won't do 230mhz, let me try setting it to something lower. thx
