Im running DDR333 and I tried to set the FSB/DRAM ratio to 5/3 so that my DDR speed is at 320mhz or something like that, but it will not boot. I have to put it at 4/3 and run it at around 302mhz. Is this normal???

not sure why it won't work, but a 1/1 ratio is the best anyway...

It works for AMDs but not P4s

BTW you can't have those links in your sig. Only seniors and above can have links to off O/C forum sites.

I assumed so but I thought I'd mention it as any ratios other than 1:1 apply to P4s mostly..
