My FSBi s at 150mhz with all the timings set to 2. (I don't get any more stability from the slower timings) I am currently running the RAM at 2.9v I am wondering if this is too much power. It won't be stable though if I set the RAM voltage lower. The ram doesn't get warm at all. I have 1 stick 256mb pc-2100 Apacer ram
 
hEAT kILLS NOT VOLTAGE, if your worried run a mem benchmark for a few hours and check the heat.

Mines cool @3.2V!!! (@ 2.8 at the moment!!!)

If you want peace of mind buy thermaltake mem cooling kits.

some one need to make some very thin watercooling ram sinks...
 
I have my crucial @ 2.9, 167FSB, since I have NTFS i don't have to worry about data corruption nana nana |P
Hey, if you are unstable @ 1.59GHZ then try increasing the FSB by 2 and then lower the Multiplier by .5 see if you are stable.
