I have vmem modded my IC7-G , Prometeia cooling on the CPU, ThermalTake Tiger1 on the Nortbridge and everytime the thing freezes/locks-up when set to FSB 282 and 5:4 divider.
3DMark01 can do 1 run, the 2nd run freezes. When FSB set to 283 not even 1 run can pass.
I have been reading a lot of forums and I have not yet seen anyone with the IC7(-G) that can go higher and keep 3DMark (or games) stable...
Ofcourse I have tested all my components and all are good at even higher speeds. I think the limiting factor is the motherboard (the NorthBridge just can't handle the amount of traffic).
I have tried *every* setting in BIOS, but this 'wall' cannot be overcome.
What I would like to know, have you ever seen anyone with high FSB AND 5:4 divider?
I have seen lots of people around the same limit as me, but never seen anyone with FSB 290 or so AND 5:4 divider....
