I have a matched pair of Corsair Twin Xms pc3200 CL 2 but everytime i push my fsb past 225 at 1:1 I get a rounded error in Prime95 i have changed the vcore to 1.415 but the error still comes up also the ram is set to 2.8 in the bios and my memory timings are 3-4-4-8 and my GAT A-A-A-D-D

Is this as far as i can push these corsiars at 1:1 as I am using a Air CPU H/s I can Probably OC to 3.4 using 5:4 but will this really be benifical as the ram will run asychronos (sorry about the spelling).
 
i highley suggest running a sandra bandwith at 1:1 and then max your cpu out and run 5:4 and rerun the bandwith again.
you will be shocked as 5:4 carrys a 10-12 perecnt increase in efficancy.
just trust me and try it. i bet you get almost the same bandwith if not even more at 5:4 long as you push the cpu fsb up as high as it can go.
