Which RAM should I buy for FSB>200Mhz. CORSAIR, Mushkin or XtremeDDR? But i'm from Germany so it's a bit difficulty to get the XtremeDDR.

1. Corsair XMS PC3200 Rev 2.1

2. nope! only 5th divider that comes on automaticly at 166 of higher.

Ya should pick up a Abit KX7Raid... better higher mem bandwidth then the Epox 8K3A+... i would know cause i use both in my systems. Main rig is Abit the 2nd one is Epox.

But I saw people who ran the 8K3A+ with over 200MHz FSB and with 199 it wasn't stable but with 200MHz it was.

Click to expand...

Probably dont know what there were doing...

Go ask in the Epox forums... They will also tell you there is no 6th divider.

Ok I'll see if the board is stable at that FSB. Has the Abit a 1/6 devider?

Another question is how do you know wheter there isn't a 1/6 devider? Only EPOX said that the BIOS don't support it. But the clock gen does.

But when it's stable it don't matters.
