before I overclock my 435 rana

Thanks for the pic Keny, no worries, I was on my phone earlier too!
I see how you handled the NB multiplier and HT multiplier, not surprised at that FSB speed. Seems your system ram though is running a bit slower than what mine is, an at this point with the BE I can overcome that limitation by upping the multiplier. I did have to push an extra .1 v for NB and SB for a stable overclock with 984mhz on the ram. I have a feeling that is just the limit of this board and ram speed.
Still, if I was back on the 435, I don't believe I would have ever gotten to those speeds on the CPU, I kept losing the 3rd core on Prime after about 3 hours once I would get about 3.6Ghz. You got very lucky!
Still wish I could push my ram to the stated 1066 and keep the high clock, but I do not believe I can get more out of the FSB with faster ram speeds.
Thanks!

Is the board assigning the correct timings to you're ram,as it should run @,and a little higher than the stated 1066.Loosen the timings a bit and see what happens!. My ram was poor 800mhz and it would not click much higher which was a bit of a let down but hey , "you can't have it all".
Timings are suppose to be 5-5-5-15 with 2.0~2.1v which the board is assigning by default those timings, I just have to set volts manually. Ive attempted 6-6-6-18 with no go on 5.33 mode for stock 1066 speed. I figure keeping the timing tight even at a slightly lower overall speed of 984. Just seems to be a wall with this board, I really looked to get a bit more initially as it is suppose to support speeds up to 1200. Oh well, cant have it all, so true.
