I'll suggest two things:

It looks like throttling to me. What's your temps?

The other possibility is that the chipset, in reality, sets some frequency to a different clockrate than it reports in the bios. What is your memorybus clock set to in bios, and what does Sandra report.

Try to find the FSB point where it goes wrong. My guess (I'm not an OC'er by habit) is that the chipset can't use your very high FSB clock to derive a correct AGP clock or DDR clock.

(If it's throttling, time will also be a factor. Give it an hour of Prime95, Seti or Folding@home.
