Is there a setting in the MB Bios to change the Memory Ratio on my P4C800E-D?

I have a Asus P4C800E-D Mobo and I was wondering where you can change the Memory Ratio in the bios if there is such a setting?

Im such a noob

it isn't stright-forward like other bios'. there is a memory frequency choice in the same sub menu as you would overclock the processor.
the choices are: 400 (1:1 ratio), 320 (5:4 ratio), and 266 (3:2 ratio).

4:5 is usually only allowed if you're running a 533 FSB CPU.

If you're running a 800 FSB CPU, your only options are 3:2, 5:4 and 1:1.

Yep, you can't run the memory faster than the FSB once the FSB is >= 200.

NOTE: This should be in the Intel motherboard section.

hmm some mobo will allow you to, like my i865 msi-neo2 LS- i had my 3.0c at 228fsb and my adata 4200 at 285fsb....thats how i found out what my adata 4200's max was since i dont have a 2.4c at the moment ( have one coming later today though)...
