Hey hey,
I got this new system all put together about a month ago, i've had ample time to play around with it. I've done no mods at all to the mobo, it's all stock except a sink on the s/b. I've been trying to get to 233 but i can't even get close. At 220 with 2,2,2,6 for timings and 2.9vdimm, i can pass memtest fine, and load into windows fine, but will get bsod in any intense apps(games, benchmarks). At 223 i can post but not load windows, memtest is fine at 2,3,2,6. At 225 i can not get it to post with any timings or cpu interface enabled/disabled. this is all with 1.7v to the chipset. I was hoping i could run my ram at it's stock speed of 466 with fairly tight timings at 2.9vdimm. I'm pretty sure i could get the memory there no problem but that something else is holding me back. Is there anything i could try before doing the wire trick for 333mhz default cpu, or doing a vmod for the chipset?
Just a shot, any advice would be appreciated.

*edit* oh yes, i'm using win2kpro sp4, and bios 18. the rest of my hardware is listed in the sig.
J, again.
