since its pc3200 (200 mhz) memory i would at least run the memory that fast. otherwise u could probably have saved yourself some money and bought some pc2700. in fact keep lowering your multiplier and upping ur fsb till u hit ur max, that way u increase ur memory bandwidth and get ur money's worth.

I've got my Geil ram running 2-2-2-11 at 200 mhz with 2.8 vdimm (see sig). i'm sure you can tighten the timings a bit. i can't get mine to OC much past 200 though, no matter what i do. gettin some 2x256 Mushkin lvl 2 pc3500 from someone soon though

2-2-2 is faster than 2-3-3 and nforce2 boards like 11 for the tRas for some reason. gets a little bit better memory bandwidth. one of the stickies has an explanation for it. mine is in dual channel, and i can't get it past 210 mhz stable. but i may have just gotten some average sticks. that's 210 with relaxed timings too. i think i set it to 2.5-4-4-8 to try to OC it. didn't work too well and my computer won't even boot with more than 2.9v runnin through this ram.

I was able to get 215fsb and could play COD or other games for hours. However, Memtest gave me errors even at relaxed timings and Vdimm at 2.8.
210 at stock voltage (2.6) and timings (2.5 3 3 6) was stable enough to play games but still gave me errors with Memtest.
