I am wondering if anyone is using the NF7-S vers. 2 w/ OCZ Performance Series PC3500 2x512 and getting high fsb w/ stability. Tell me what bios you are using, ram settings, voltages, etc.How high are you getting w/ complete stability? Thanks
 
Performance Series? Can you mention the specific name? Depending on the ram chip, most people get between 230-240 with 1 gig of ram. I had 2*512 of OCZ pc3500 EB PE. I had to use Tictac's D10 4x4 Turbo BIOS, ran 2.8V through them at 3-2-3-10. Hit my boards max at 236 with the gig. That's the problem with the NF7, it doesn't overclock well with a gig kit in. I went with a 2*256 kit later, and I'm at 255 right now. I'd still go with a gig though, the high fsb can't compare to the gaming performance that you get from having a gig kit. Personally, look into some OCZ pc3200 plat. rev.2's that have the 2-2-2-5 timings. Get a gig of that if you can, because it has the TCCD chip in it. Excellent overclockers.
 
Ocz 3500

I am running that board and ram. I love it! O/C is in my sig, voltage on the ram is 2.7 or 2.8, using Manta Rey's XT BIOS. My RAM settings are 2.5 3 3 11. The NF7-S seems to be very picky about the RAM and BIOS.

Good luck! :beer:

Stable FSB

I have gotten a little higher than my sig, but can't go much over 2.51 or so stable.
